thewallace 5 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) I've seen comments scattered around the forums but can't figure out how to do this. I'm using Win 7 64-bit with the newest version of MB server/classic. I have an original silver 'green button' MCE remote, but it doesn't work in the new MB. It worked fine on the old version and I can see the remote sensor light blink on both the remote and tv sensor . Is there something I have to enable in MB? I can't find anything in the web interface.

fuzzy11287 5 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Can you navigate Media Center with it and does it only stop working once you enter Media Browser Classic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewallace 5 Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) I found this interesting fix about enabling universal remotes in the registry. I found several keys were off, I enabled them, not sure what they were. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-pictures/media-center-remote-control-wont-work-in-windows-7/d30ae22d-82fd-4e1f-bc63-ce0cbad40c63 But it was simpler than that. Device Manager showed an unknown device that in its string showed as an IR device. I uninstalled and Windows reinstalled it as a MS IR device. This is Win 7 64-bit Enterprise with all the updates. Weird that such a simple driver never got installed to begin with. Edited March 26, 2015 by thewallace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothic99 1 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 I have been using an MCE remote with no issues. I have recently purchased a universal touchscreen remote, I triained it from the MCE remote I use and it "works" but the function keys only operate once. eg: i open a season and can only scroll down one line to the next episode, seems it only accepts a keypress "once". If i select movies i can only scroll left or right once. I hope this makes sense. I would like to know if there is a setting i can tweak to allow the activation of multiple keystrokes from the same key. I am using windows 7 (64bit) N54L Hp microserver. Here is the remote I am trying to use: http://www.terapeak.com/worth/rotel-rr-990-remote-control-touch-screen-learning-universal-remote-control/262081041012/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with Emby for sure. I would look in the touchscreen manual or contact the manufacturer to determine if the technology is capable of sending repeated signals for a single press.
