Problems with driver for BB+ Dongle (e.d) - Advice
Hi,
I have an HP Slimline computer that was preloaded with Vista Media Center and which came with this model of the remote control: http://memages.jrpereira.com/images_junk/hp_media_center_remote.jpg. I also have an IR remote control for my USB-based DigiTv "card/box" (AnySee e30c+). Due to repetitive crashes of Vista, i have installed XP Pro (SP3) and decided to use MediaPortal as my Media Center. At the moment i am experiencing the following problem with the remote controls. i would like to use any of those remote controls with Media Portal.
Initially, after installing XP, there was an (!) mark next to the USB Controller BB+ Dongle(e.d) in the device manager. To remedy to this problem, i installed the MCE Replacement Driver (developed by AND-81 and available on this forum) and the MCE Replacement Plugin (Remote Plugin) and that corrects the problem in the Device Manager.
However, i am unable to get the remotes to work with MP. I am able to make the Remote Plugin to learn the keys but i cannot use the "binding". For example, if i make the plugin learn that the "Volume +" button on my Remote to be "Volume Up" command and bind it to the macro "Blast: Volume Up" then nothing really happens when using that button on the remote while viewing some Video.
Would anyone have a working solution or an idea how i could solve this ?
Also, just to be 100% clear. I didn't develop MCE Replacement Driver, I just modified it and recompiled it from the original code by BurningZeRoad, which was based on sample code from the MS Windows Driver Development Kit.
I did develop the MCE Replacement plugin 100% myself however.
I just want to make sure that BurningZeRoad (Bruno Fleurette) gets full credit for the MCE Replacement Driver.
i hope the log provides you with some clues but in case it does not please let me know what i can do to get in there those elements that you are expecting.
