Ongoing xbox 360 and htpc dilemna (1 Viewer)

[rolls1400]

I recently got a 360 but now the problem is when i turn off/on the htpc it also turns off/on the 360. I searched and couldn't find anything on this specifically. Any one have any ideas?? thx

I can't remeber exactly, but if you go into options there should be a setting for the remote control. I think by default it is set to MCE remote, change it to X360 remote and that should sort the problem.

thx for the reply but sorry i should of been more specific. Im actually using a mce "gateway" remote, when i hit the power button is when it turns on/off both of them..

I disabled the remote in xbox360 setup.. easy way to solve it =)

Only catch is that you have to use your 360controller to navigate dvd's on the 360.

The best bet is to get a 360 Media Remote, And disable Windows Media Remote support on the 360's Setup blade. I run into the same problem, and it anoyed me for ages!

I have a slightly similar issue.

I got the 360 HD-DVD for xmas (if only I had waited a couple of weeks I might have held off based on the recent blu-ray news) and with it got the Universal Media remote.

I use the MCE remote for mediaportal, however when I use the 360 universal remote with the hd-dvd player it also sends commands to my pc/mediaportal. So everyone time I want to use the 360 remote I have to firstly close mediaportal.
So how do I disable the 360 universal remote in mediaportal whilst keeping the MCE remote active and working.

Many thanks.
