[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1164900, member: 82144"] Hello Danny So you have all your channels in the TV Channels section of TV Server Configuration? ...and they're all configured with the correct input settings (as per the mappings in the "inputs" section of -->[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/hauppauge-hd-pvr-colossus-support.94850/']this post[/URL]<--)? Card[B]s[/B] (multiple) or card (singular)? MediaPortal does not communicate directly with the Colossus. It can receive remote commands from the USB-UIRT, but it cannot control your set top box. So, if you're fishing through MediaPortal Configuration looking for something then [B]stop[/B]. That's a complete waste of time. If you're going to succeed in configuring MediaPortal then it is critical that you understand what I'm about to write. [B]Only one application can use/control the USB-UIRT at any given time.[/B] If IRSS is using it then MediaPortal won't be able to, and vice versa. As I said above: despite what you see in MediaPortal Configuration -> Remote -> USBUIRT, [B]MediaPortal cannot use your USB-UIRT to control your set top box[/B]. Therefore [B]IRSS should be configured to control the USB-UIRT[/B]. You must disable the "use your remote to control MediaPortal" and "let MediaPortal control your settopbox" options. If you leave them enabled, MediaPortal and IRSS will fight for control over the USB-UIRT. That won't end well. Yes, as above. Disable all USB-UIRT related options in MediaPortal Configuration. Use the IRSS MP Control plugin for MediaPortal to receive remote commands from the USB-UIRT receiver. Use the IRSS TV3 Blaster plugin for MediaPortal's TV Server to have the USB-UIRT blaster control your set top box. If you configure the above plugins appropriately then everything can and should work. If you need help configuring the above plugins then just ask. Regards, mm [/QUOTE]
