[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 557142, member: 76888"] I will try my best to help you, however i'm not an expert. That remote is definitely not imon. I would guess that it's not an MCE compatible remote, because it is missing most of the usual MCE buttons Since the arrow keys and 'ok' button works, you know that the remote drivers are working correctly. This is good, and it means you don't have to play with the drivers at this stage. [U]First step[/U] - HID Device Load mediaportal configuration Click on "remotes" tab Click on "General HID" tab Add a tick to "Use General HID Device" Now restart your computer, run mediaportal see if the play/stop buttons now work. [U]Second Step[/U] - MCE Compatible Device Reload mediaportal configuration Untick "Use General HID Device" Add a tick to "Use Microsoft MCE Remote or Keyboard" Now restart your computer, run mediaportal see if the play/stop buttons now work. [U]Third Step[/U] - 3rd Party Apps Either involves trying a 3rd party app - eg. Girder / IRSS / HIP / LMRemote (or) use AutoHotKey to create your own script that remaps the buttons to keystrokes. I think autohotkey would be best approach first. Good luck, Mike [/QUOTE]
