[QUOTE="Herr R aus B, post: 220727, member: 62807"] Yes, I understand your point, but look at that Hyper Terminal screen shot - that's no fake. I managed it for several times to produce just one single byte - in my opinion that indicates, that 0x7Es are not part of the single button press, which also somehow is approved by dero's article - eventhough he never exactly said so - but the history of this driver shows us, that nobody seems to have a real clue on that MR300 stuff. btw - you mentioned they were talking a MR700 device? I can't find such a device. They have a MR500 with a nice little description on [URL="http://www.vlsys.co.kr/"]this page[/URL] (look under OEM/ODM) saying Artificial intelligence! Yeeeehah!! That's exactly what we'd need... I love these marketing geeks.... Darn... Maybe a bug in MP's COM port handling? Let me put it like that: F**K! :oops: But looking at MP's HP they already pointed out that the entire plugin model might not be very sufficient... Definately not, as not everybody might wanna have a windows service running and as you can see with jaylemur's demands, ppl still wanna make use of this MHC software, which btw. controls MP as well. So if you look at it like that, the driver must have been redundant from the beginning. I don't agree at all! I don't like the MHC software that much. I want a slim solution that does exactly what's needed. The MHC thing can do this and that is colorful has a brilliant(ly annoying) splash screen and so on... I want something, that resides in the background and does its work. So your driver is one great alternative for those who love MHC but also want to have display functionality. And I am the one who also wants fan control all the time and doesn't like MHC - so... btw. do you have a source for a valid, understandable and complete description of the IRTRans protocol? As the vendors say, the software is open source... any documentation you could advise? Somewhat cynical if not sarcastical and ironical - aren't you? :D As for the dark - open your windows ;) Or do you mean your workplace? That was one of the reasons I never wanted to work in the states unless having a german contract... These 4m² booths would make me most depressive I think. But they have the same in England as I could see, when I was working in London... Terrible customs! The registry is a pain anyway... :) Yes, indeed!
