I personally don't do this, so I don't know offhand which ports are required. The place shifter issue sounds like you don't have the appropriate ports open on your router for the connection to pass through to your Sage instance. Well, this sounds like a completely separate issue from the remote mapping issue. So I tried putting service mode back on, just to check whether that had anything to do with it, and still had the problem. If you are unsure whether your remote is an eHome remote look in the Device Manager under Human Interface Devices and see if there is a device called 'Microsoft eHome Infrared Transceiver' or something similar.
My desktop placeshifter and Android miniclient when connecting via LAN are fine, but when I try the locator ID method, I can't get it to accept the password. This article applies to remote controls that use the Microsoft eHome device driver. I may be having some success, though, with getting USBUIRT working by leaving service mode (see linked thread below):Įverything seems to work, except getting the Android miniclient to connect using locator id. I would however like to know if there is a way to map direct to some other menu items (MyTV, Scheduled Recordings, etc) which need a couple of clicks at the moment
The learned remote had some of what I assume were MCE commands for My Music, My Videos, My Pictures which do work (surprise surprise)! I could not assign channels as most of mine have been remapped and have decimals, but I also think need a Enter Enter to accept. The remote supports 5 favorite channels, which can be assigned any command. I then assigned the unused buttons, though some I chose to duplicate for convenience. There were a number of unassigned buttons and I needed to add new commands for "Return" and "Menu". eHome Infrared Receiver (USBCIR) -Hardware Ids- USBVID147A&PIDE042&REV1101&MI00 USBVID147A&PIDE042&MI00 -Manufacturer- Microsoft. (It wants to configure the IR Reciever and does not care about the remote => RC6) It pushed me down the learning route, which only required 3 key validations. I ended up using Microsoft as the manufacturer and "MCE Remote" as the device, which was not found. The current Logitech does not contain dropdowns, only fill ins, so it makes finding some less common devices hard. I was able to find the SageTV set top boxes, but not able to find a suitable entry for the client.
