    I noticed that the UP key on my Harmony One was changed from 'Aspect Ratio' to 'ZapChannel' for Fullscreen TV.
    Not sure if that's intended.

    I sure did not intend that. Should not be an MCE/HID issue but rather a key mapping problem since your remote direction keys behave just like you keyboard direction keys.

    IMHO this is theoretically correct. The Up/Down logics on your Harmony would normaly be used to change channels and therefore correspond to F7/F8 in a standard MediaPortal environment.

    There is already a channel - and + on that remote so I'm thinking this can be mapped to something else.
    @HomeY You should open a thread for this issue as we are offtopic really.

    You should be able to use the HIDDemo program I've attached there to tell me which HID code corresponds to this 'Up Arrow'.
    I'm guessing it's sending 'channel up'. Enabling verbose HID log in MP should also reveal the key.
    Just open a new thread if you want us to look into it.

    Correct ;)

    I'm still unaware of the fact that it IS an issue ;) Just wanted to inform you of a change i noticed (and off course i already fixed it the way i want it).

    5E is TeletextBlue and looking in the XML the default action is still "aspect ratio" but for TV fullscreen is does "autozap" whatever that is.

    I meant use MP client to try to spot how it's requesting streams for specific channels and then try to do the same with VLC. TV Server development looks dead so I'm afraid you're going to have to figure that out by yourself if it's even possible.

    Many thanks for the answer. So far I've used Logitech's Harmony hub. This allows you to control all components (including the media portal). I have now contacted the Sofabaton hotline. It should also work here like with the Harmony. Unfortunately, not all of the IR codes are correct. You can also learn commands here. But that doesn't...

    Sorry, it's my fault -- I did not notice that you are using MP2. :( MP1 has a separate configuration utility, similar to "TV Server Config". I have tried MP2 only a couple of times, and have never used it seriously. I don't know what MP2 supports with regard to adjusting audio delay, but I do know that all of the adjustments of...
