[QUOTE="bolders, post: 273863, member: 42721"] Hi surfer It is true there is a bit of a learning curve associated with Media Portal but it is getting there :) I understand your frustrations especially if you just want a working system and dont see it as a hobby. Hopefully this will help you a little bit to setup your remote. Im running XP and not MCE so cant be sure its the same but it probably is. Firstly you dont need any drivers to get the MCE remote to work. You can check this is true by adjusting the volume control (while in windows not Media Portal). If your system volume changes then the remote is working - If it does not then you have a problem that is not related to Media Portal. Next try IR server suite (by and-81) this will enable you to get your remote to work fully in Media portal including blasting commands to a set top box, learning codes from other remotes and loads of other cool stuff such as running macros from a single button press of the remote. I think its awsome - it did take me a bit of playing to get it fully working but it povides so much flexibility its well worth it. the best place to start is here [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mce-replacement-plugin-165/ir-server-suite-version-1-0-4-1-a-33512/[/url] have a play and see how you get on - if you get stuck i will do my best to talk you through it (in a non techie way) I am no expert but i have managed to get it working a treat on my system and hopefully we can do the same for you regards bolders edit\ If discussing remotes further its probably better we use a new thread rather than pull this one off topic :) [/QUOTE]
