The tricky bit is that I can't assign a keyboard key to go to a MP Window, which can only be done via the Remote config section:I would need to go into this further to see for sure how how the windows are called but I'll bet it's not too hard. If they are sending keyboard events you can use them as Hotkeys, The Hotkey tutorial is here. If they are sending keyboard events they will be displayed as if you typed them on the keyboard. I think the directional, OK and numerical buttons will work OK without a script, but I'm going to need to map the * and # keys to keyboard buttons and I'm not sure what they're even sending at the moment.One way to check and see if these are sending Keyboard keys is place your cursor anywhere you can type and press those keys. The directional, OK, numerical and * and # buttons don't appear on either, so must be using the keyboard device. However it should not be hard to get the remote working with MediaPortal as you are trying to do. But from what I have seen by taking a quick glance, everything it can do can be done in Autohotkey which would make MediaPortal just an extra step. Hi doveman, I haven't seen MediaPortal before but it looks very interesting. ng_Buttons (this is the MCE page, but the General HID one looks the same except for the list of keys) There's a 'General HID' remote section, so perhaps there's a way to get AHK to map my shortcut keys to one of the keys listed here (BrowserBackward, BrowserForward, MediaNextTrack, MediaPreviousTrack, etc) and then assign that to the appropriate window there?

Shortcut Keys (except Guide which is on 12,1)Īnd the directional, OK, numerical and * and # buttons don't appear on either, so must be using the keyboard device. Most of the buttons are on 12,1 except for the following which are on 65468,136: Perhaps someone's already done something similar and can save me a lot of time So I'd appreciate it if someone could advise how I should go about setting this up to use with MediaPortal. I've got this Emprex 3009URF III Vista MCE Remote which doesn't actually seem to register as an MCE remote. From the file menu you can choose to have the script start with windows so your all your functions are always available. You can then keep adding subroutines to the script as needed. The chosen module's functions are then written to a script that runs in the background meaning no gui. You then choose what you wish to control by selecting from the many output modules, such as media player functions. At the bottom of the instructions is a copy of thegood's script for catching and using his remote that's been edited to show where to enter your information.Įasy Automation AHK use thegood's AHKHID script as an input module along with many other input modules to choose from. Other HID Info is a simplified version of the examples found in this thread that is mostly for RF remotes. If your trying to control a media player using one of the AHK function libraries then the media player does not need to be active. If your trying to control a media player by sending hotkeys then the media player must be active. If your just wanting to receive the data from the remote then no gui is needed. It really depends on what your trying to do.
