Is it supported by MediaPortal?
If not, is there any patch for that?

It works with some remotes. I've seen some posts that it is supported with the MCE remote. It also works with some of the plugins, irrespective of the remote, eg Moving Pictures.

Apparantly SMS style input was implimented in MP1.01, however I can't work out how you activate it. I have a genuine MCE remote and reciever but I can't get it to work no matter what I try. Also there is this patch by Nickola although its a bit old now and I havent personanly tried it. It maybe worth a shot: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/newcomers-forum-240/sms-style-input-34450/#post250016

Does anybody know for sure that SMS input really is available in 1.01 and if so what are the requirements to get it to work? I would really like this feature.

Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution.

Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...

I eventually came across the TwinHan driver CD that was included with the original product. The CD contains numerous drivers for the different TwinHan tuner models, but the drivers are for Win 2K (32-bit only) and Win XP (32-bit and 64-bit). The drivers install directly on Vista, and the drivers can be installed on Win 7 and Win 10...

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...
