Hi guys

Basicly a quick question.. i have a microsoft media center remote and would like to program a few buttons to some of progdvb feature's ie show/hide channel list - EPG - Record - and close nowt to fancy BUT.
I try a learn the buttons via setting-controls then learn but all the buttons i press r not recognized, is there a way to solve this? the remote works to scroll through channels via up/down/left/right etc?

can anyone help

AFAIK your remote works as a HID.
This means, it emulates keyboard controls.
So you should try and teach in the remote keys as keyboard controls.
Avoid doublettes, so better write down key coordination to controls, and any changes you've made, and ensure to not let Windows claim keys, that are needed for ProgDVB.

Well that helped thanks :) but as ever solving 1 problem had caused some more :cry: here goes hopefully i explain it ok!

Program Fullscreen mode to button 1 on remote BUT it only works if ive clicked with my mouse on the actual video part of the screen? also scrolling through channels only works if ive clicked the channel list! ie left/right dont open/close the organised channels(subfolder's) just switches between software mode and hardware mode. ??

is there anyway to make this easier?
