[QUOTE="winsys11, post: 59218, member: 15111"] ok, i've perhaps been a little confused. I thought that blaster was written for the Microsoft IR Transceiver only. I've been reading other blaster posts and it seems the people having trouble have cards like the PVR. (which I beleive has only one bud?) That might explain why I was advised to force my system to use port two, whereas it works fine on port one. My advisor must have thought I had a PVR. for the record, this is what I have that works: XP MCE 2005 os Microsoft european-style remote with IR Transceiver (two buds) Microsoft MCE IR Keyboard MP RC4 pace 420 STB (foxtel) it all worked with RC2, I upgraded to RC4 and the buds stopped. I then D/L the latest blaster, put them in the right dirs. Ran blaster outside of MP ( ie mp shutdown) Learnt my remotes codes. ran MR setup - enabled the plugin ran MP - the buds now flash, but STB does nothing I asked for help for the DAT file for my STB, and got sent the file (thanks Carbo) I put the file in the MP root, and now it all works fine. Why? Wouldn't have a clue. Perhaps Smirnuf and/or Scoop can shed some light. [/QUOTE]
