[QUOTE="Spagbol, post: 63578, member: 21687"] Thanks for your quick reply mPod. After reading more about this, can you confirm that the limitation of using a Hauppauge remote with the MCE receiver is a driver issue (i.e. MCE driver not knowing how to interpret the IR signal into a command)? So, if the MCE receiver won't relay the commands to MP can I use a 3rd party driver to interpret the IR signals and a utility like uIce or HIP to forward the command to MP? Hauggauge Remote --> MCE IR receiver & HIP --> MP HIP includes a replacement MCE driver which can control the input and output of the MCE receiver and allows learning of commands from any remote. The driver can receive RC5X/RC6/RC6A/REC-80 protocol commands. (Info and source code for the driver is available along with the whole discussion on its development from [url=http://thegreenbutton.com/forums/thread/33616.aspx]here[/url].) If this is flogging a dead horse I will try the MCE remote (it's the layout I don't like) and I also have a Marantz RC9200 I could program, but that just takes so long to do!! [/QUOTE]
