starting MP with my Hauppauge remote or (1 Viewer)

[doublej]

Hi all

...any idea how to start MP from my Hauppauge remote ? It works a treat once I run it.... but would be cool not to need to start it from the keyboad.

I also have a TechnoTrend remote - but haven't set that up yet - so would be happy to hear from anyone running that.

There is a thread on the Hauppauge forum that might help you. It is about Windows Media Center but I think it can easily be adapted for MediaPortal.

In c:\windows\irremote.ini go to the [default] section and replace

the GRNPOWER section by

GRNPOWER={run("c:\progra~1\teamme~1\mediap~1\mediaportal.exe")}

how would doing this affect the way the remote works inside MP?

will you still be able to power it off with the same button?

It has no influence on the way the remote works inside MP. MP closes the standard remote program and uses it's own way to support the remote. When you leave MP the default remote program is started again.

If you run MP in a window you can see this happen. Or just watch your tray icon while running the MP configuration.
