OK key for use in W7 Media Center

Postby spil » Sat 21. Nov 2009, 11:02

Hi,

In the apps.cnf file the OK key is mapped as the ENTER key. This does not work always in W7 Media Center, e.g. for searches in music it actually requires the OK key that is being used on the original Media Center remote. Is there a way to bypass this? Is there a code that I can use in apps.cnf file to emulate the OK key?

Thanks for your answers!

We can only emulate keyboard keys here. The mapping will be the same everywhere.

Thanks for your answer.
But is there a keyboard 'OK' key? Is there a way to get this work?

No response?
I have multiple problems with IRtrans, please respond to my questions. And a 'no' is also an answer.

Do you see an "OK" button on your keyboard ?

As I wrote before we can only emulate keyboard codes - no keyboard "OK", no emulation.
Please ask MS why not all functions of Mediacenter can be used by 3rd party apps.

Wow, what an agressive response. This is not the tone of voice you raise to customers, you might loose them all...
My HTPC (OriginAE) was equipped with IRtrans. No one told me that IRtrans is not fully compatible to MediaCenter. On your download page you show a MediaCenter remote but nowhere you say you're not fully compatible. And if you blame Microsoft for this you should think twice.

You gave a good tip: Just buy a low cost Microsoft IR device and everything will work. When I look at your crappy, very difficult interface and the fact that you're still not officially supporting Windows 7 I have seen it here.

By the way, you still didn't response to my other question. Also MS's fault?

If you are not happy with that device please ask the manufacturer: OrigenAE.

We do not manufacture those devices, we do not sell them.


OrigenAE bought a licence for their devices together with Software for Windows XP several years ago.

All you see here and all software you are downloading for those OEM devices is provided free of charge - so if you like it, use it or not.
