Msi tv tuner remote control

Can't use the remote control while running tv tuner. It has never worked since installed. tv tuner works fine using the keyboard.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

About ten years ago, when Macs with the optional Apple TV/Video System were relatively new, some users reported that their computers were being turned ON/OFF by their Sony remote control. Because Sony is primarily a manufacturer and not just a distributor selling outsourced electronic products, it continued to use the same IR frequencies for many product models. This is why you usually see fewer Sony codes to try, when programming a universal remote control. Anyway, that's what I'd recommend, starting with the oldest Sony codes first. I don't know if all remote control functions will be activated, but it's worth a try.

Can MSI VOX be remotely controlled?

I belive I read in the skimpy manual that the USB VOX TV-tuner could be remotely controlled via the Internet. I've managed to set up streaming, but can't figure out how I can change channels remotely. Is this possible at all or just a glitch in the "manual" ?

You could use software like Caffeine to prevent it from sleeping:

Remote control and MSI PC-DTV Mega Sky 580

Hello,
I bought one of these recently and initially had problems when installed. It would initially run fine but after I closed the program down and restarted it the PC would just reboot.
I was using the front USB ports so I moved it to the rear ports and removed and reinstalled the drivers/software. It runs just fine now and the quality of the picture superb. I've rerun the device over a few days and all seems okay. I appear to have all the available programs from the Sutton Coldfield transmitter although this morning I booted up and the screen was blank. I realised I had last looked at BBC4 and of course thats only a part time channel!
I've looked at the MSI site at the drivers/Presto PVR updates but I am not sure which of the four I should download and use. In fact as the device is working is there any advantage in doing this?
Lastly... I'm not sure if this is a problem or not but the remote control doesn't work. Reading through the forum I'm wondering if I have the wrong end of the stick and the remote only works with Microsofts MCE. I have Microsoft XP SP2. Does the Mega Sky 580 not have a built in IR sensor and am I wasting my time pointing the remote at it and swearing?
Microsoft XP SP2 with current updates.

Hi,
Okay I have the bundled Presto PVR software so the unit must be faulty. I thought that the remote control and bundled Presto PVR would only work if installed on a PC where the operating system was Media Centre Edition.
So the remote control and bundled Presto PVR should work if installed on a PC with Windows XP SP2?
It looks a bit like I'll have to get a different make. I tried to rescan the channels last night because I was missing UKTV History and now I cannot get BBC1,2,3,4 or radios 3,4,6,7. I get loads of duplicates though like 5 Q's 4 ITV3's. All this on the same aerial I was using yesterday.
I even tried it with an indoor/attic aerial that works nicely with my other freeview (set-top style not PC) boxes but no matter what I tried I just get the same duplicated list of a few channels. Even tried it with the indoor/attack aerial upside down, back to front! Same list of 63 channels but most duplicated.
They all work fine but I would prefer a complete set

MSI TV@Anywhere PLUS remote control shut down problem

Hi!
I have a MSI TV@Anywhere PLUS card working fine. I use the remote control without problem. Except that, when i want to shut down my PC with it. I push "POWER", the app closes, and after that i push "RESET" and I get this: "Press "Power" to shut down your computer, or any other key to cancel" . But whatever I try to push on the remote, nothing happens...but by the mouse, the OK or Cancel buttons work.
Can somebody help , what is going on?
thanks much!

Hi All,
I solved my problem with some trying, this msi remote is really funny....
Okey, so It appears that, when the above mentioned "shut down or cancel" window comes up pushing the "RESET" on my remote, the remote app. stops receiving commands/stops working. If i close this window, I am able to use again my remote controller. phhhh....
All right, lets use the built-in mouse/pointer controller to click (5) on OK in the window, when it is asking for shut down... NOT working either, because as i mentioned above, when the window appears, the remote stops working... jejeje :D
So, I made a shutdown.exe command icon on the desktop, and I can click on it with my remote...solved...
(the remote controller cannot navigate the cursor above the windows taskbar i do not no why..., besides this, it is ridiculous how difficult to move the cursor with he controller, pushing like crazy :D )

Girder plugin for MSI Vox remote control

Hi!
Since I bought a VOX USB2.0 for using in my laptop I found the remote control useless cause it only works with the MSIPVS (that I don't use) and there was no plugin for it.
So, recently I had some free time and I developed a plugin that allows me to control my pc with this little remote control.
If there's someone else interested in this plugin I can make it available to download.

Hi!
I have installed Christv v4.99, Grider and downloaded config files for VOX on Promixis site (thanks Alexis!!!). I can see that remote will work (have tried some of functions and it works) but my problem is:
Christv doesn't give me good quality picture like Fly 2000 TV. If I try to change some settings in "Program settings" then it is reflecting to CPU usage! My fun on laptop is very loud when it is hot, so it disturbs me too much
I am attaching Print screen from my current settings (pic on Christv is black but not on my PC) but if I change advanced settings for Greedy HM it doesn't remember it after shutting down Christv. If anyone have lower CPU usage and good pic quality with Christv it will be very nice if (s)he post it here
Sorry for my bad english

MSI MEGA PC 865
windows 98 XP whith SP2

I too have this exact same issue. The play, stop, forward, reverse buttons don't do anything, and also the sound buttons, they activate the volume window but not adjustment of the volume happens. The only buttons that work are the opening of applications and the power button. All this happened after I installed some free updating software for some other paid and free applications I have (Advanced SystemCare Professional), all quite legitiment, as a result there were corrupt icons and I had to uninstall the offending software and some corrupted software including Microsoft Office beta and reinstall... no viruses were found on a full Zonealarm scan. I have the DV6-2113TX on Win-7. If ANYONE has a clue how to fix the full functionality of the remote, please let me know as it's really niggling me that it just doesn't work even after reinstalling the drivers for the IR etc.
I tried contacting HP online and I get NO replies. I am yet to phone. It is still under warranty with 20 months left (8 months manufacturer, 12 months supplier).
cheers

Lenovo AIO C440 - not working infrared remote control

Hello,
is there any hint how to get infrared remote control working for a new C440 model? Tomorrow I will try to measure and/or replace batteries which could be bad. For now it is totally not working.
Another question: the remote should work only within AverMedia TV app or in the whole Windows 8?
Regards,
Zdenek

hi bohdik,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
The IR Windows Media Center remote control is for use with C440 models with optional TV tuner. If you have this model, make sure the TV Tuner driver and the ITE CIR Driver from the lenovo support site are installed under Device Manager (press Windows Key+R then type devmgmt.msc) then follow the Set up a TV signal in Windows Media Center. guide.
Note:
You must have Windows 8 PRO to enable Windows Media Center
See this articles in reference:
How to add Windows Media Center to Windows 8 Pro

Hope this helps

How can I remotely control what iTunes song my iMac is playing to multiple AppleTV's?

So I own an iMac that has homesharing enabled. I then tell the iMac to play to both of my AppleTV's by holding OPTION key down while clicking on Airplay, and checking off the devices that I want it to stream to filling my home with sound that is in sync in every room. Works beautifully. Only problem is that I can not then control the iMac remotely from let's say the bedroom to pick a new artist. The ATV's become dumb clients simply playing what the iMac is pumping to them. Is there a remote interface that allows me to control iTunes on the iMac to choose the sounds being broadcast to the other Apple devices?
NO. VNC is a ghetto work around to accomplish this. Yes, I could do that, but it is inefficient, and inelegant. I am looking for a remote control app with the functionality that allows me to connect to and see the device that I want to control, and then by choosing my iMac, see all artists/albums/songs, play them and let the iMac pump the tunes to the devices that I told iTunes to Airplay to.
Ideally, the AppleTV's should know that they are acting as clients to the iMac serving centrally, but when I pick up an AppleTV remote, it overrides the stream from the iMac, and then the ATV begins streaming independently from the other. I KNOW there is a solution to this...
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Adam

ok... solved it. By using the Apple Remote app, you can tell the app to control your iMac (I did not know that) and that solved the issue. Now the iMac plays the song I want to all of the devices that I told the iMac to play to. Perfect.

Mega 865 Pro Remote Control and MCE

Hello peeps,
Does anyone know if there is a way of getting the input from the remote control on the 865 Pro to emulate keyboard presses.
I use Album Player (www.albumplayer.com) and you can set it up so it will change tracks etc.. by keyboard presses, it would be handy if this could be done by remote control.
(I've since seen that there is a post in this link https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=91685.0 that might help, but if anyone has any tips in the meantime let me know)
Thanks

Stu, you obviously didnt properly read the System Control Manager thread that I created.
niblet,
yes you can quite easily do it, please see the System Control Manager thread created by me. It details how to do it.
cheers

TV remote control and Java

Hello,
I am new to Java and I am trying to write a program in Javafx. Therefore I looked this week on ebooks. My quesion is how can I change TV channel with my remote control ?
I have i TV tuner in my computer with TV remote controll.

I suggest yet another way: "Does Java support TV remote control?"
If yes, then JavaFX does too (by using the Java API).

Wireless remote control and FM transmitter in one?

Hello.
Does anbody know if there is a wireless remote control and FM transmitter in one product out yet for the iPod? I am wanting to keep my iPod in the trunk of my GoldWing and control it while I ride transmitting through the FM tuner.
Other ideas or a combination of products to accomplish this much appreciated!
thanks
iPod 80 GB Windows XP

I spent some time (2 hrs) again with the vendor, trying to solve the issue.
The only result we got is that, when the PC is in suspended status, it can be resumed by pressing "ON" button of the IR Remote Control. That's all.
My suspect is therefore confirmed: it isn't a hardware issue. It lokks like the IR Remote Controller and the PC can talk eachother, but they speak different languages.
It is quite a surprise that I couldn't find any information on the use (Settings? Activation?) of the remote control, nor in the topics of this forum. Really I'm the only one trying to watch TV on the PC? Are there any users of a C540 who can tell me their experience?
Thank you

Remote control and MegaSky 580 (MS5580)

Hi,
i have the device with driver version AP v1.5.0.1 and latest patch for presto installed. watching tv works on one computer (1) but the remote control does not react.
On another older computer i tested(2), its the other way round. the remote control works, i can start the presto software with the red button, but then it crashes and presto can not start scanning because it can not find the device. strange, the ir-remote works but device not fount, he? anyway, this is not my pc, and i dont want do run the megasky on this one, but i just testet to see if the device is defective.
so, i asked at the msi support, but they said i have to ask the dealer. the dealer did not give any information but excanged the device for a new one. now i have the new device and meanwhile a new pc (3), but there is no difference: tv works but ir does not.
on pc (2) the new device and remote work but tv does not.
now i suspect there is a software fault.
so, asking the dealer for a 3rd device seems to make no sense.
what can i do before i buy another brand?
here the configurations i tested the mega sky with:
(1)
AsRock Mainboard 775VM800
Via P4M800 Chipset
Intel Celeron D 2,93GHz
ATI 9600Pro graphics
512MB DDR 333MHz
Windows XP SP2
logitech UltraX Optical Mouse (usb)
logitech Internet Pro Keyboard (usb)
(2)
some older board from msi?
Pentium 4 2,? GHz
geforce 4ti graphics
256MB ram
Windows XP SP2
unknown logitech mouse (usb)
noname keyboard (ps2)
(3)
AsRock Mainboard ALiveNF6G-DVI
NVidia NF-6100-430 Chipset
Athlon 64 X2 3800+
Onboard Geforce 6100 graphics
1024MB DDR2 800 ADATA ram
Windows XP SP2
logitech UltraX Optical Mouse (usb)
logitech Internet Pro Keyboard (usb)

i have done some more investigation with the remote control.
now i'm pretty sure, the sender/receiver work on any of the 3 pcs, but the drivers are not propperly setup or buggy on two of them. here are the things i have done:
in the presto software folder there is a \Driver\KbFilterDriver subfolder with REMOVE.exe in it. i ran it and after re-plugging in the device, there was a yellow exclamination mark at the dtv-receiver under human interface devices. it says the driver could not be loaded. now there was a button for using the "installed driver", that i used to install a microsoft standard hid keyboard driver. i was a little confused, but windows accepted this.
now i can open a notepad window, and every single key ot the remote control results in a character typed into notepad.
after pressing the buttons on the remote row by row, there are: o1abcdefgx2ijk
so what the hell is wrong with the GenesysLogic KbFilterDriver? i want to sit back and watch tv with the remote control in my hand! is that too much demanded? why does not the manufacturer respond on this problem? its obvioulsly their fault.

Remot Control For Digital@nywhere ATSC and Vista Don't Work Together Very Well

I have a Digital@nywhere ATSC tuner card w/remote.
On Windows XP, the remote worked ok. On Windows Vista, the remote works only some of the time.
On Windos XP, the BDA drivers and utilities on the install disk loaded fine. Not so with Vista.
On Vista, the utilities on the install disk seem to load fine, but the BDA drivers fail.
Loading the Vista Digital@nywhere utilities gets the tuner card to work, but has no drivers for the remote. Leaving me to load the utilities from the install disk, and and the BDA drivers from the Vista Digital@nywhere files. A rather tedious process, with the remote only functioning sometimes.
I have tried every trick I can think of to get the remote control and Vista to work together, to no avail. I'm stumped.
I'd rather not go out and buy a new tuner card, when the Digital@nywhere ATSC tuner card works fine on Vista. I'd just like to have a remote control that works fine too. But I don't.
I hope an answer can be found for this problem.
If I haven't been clear enough, just ask, and I'll try to explain things better.
Thanks for any help that anyone can give.

Are you using Media Center in Vista? If so, buy a Media Center remote, should work with no problems.

MEGA 180 remote control LINUX support

I'm trying to set the MEGA 180 up as a home entertainment system with Freevo on Debian (Linux).
The system now boots from network, and sound/video/tv-out works perfectly.
I've not managed to use the LCD, radio and remote control yet.
(Or the card reader, but that should not be a problem).
The radio and LCD I can live without, but the remote control was what got me to buy the system in the first place. Does anyone know how to make it work with linux?
If someone could supply me with specs for the hardware, I should be able to write a driver myself, but so far, I've had no luck finding the info I need.
(I didn't expect the onboard IR reciever to work, so I had build a serial IR reciever... but when I got the PC... no serial port )
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

These are the only links I have got that might be of interest.

not a lot of help I know but I light a candle every so often

What remote controls will work with the iMac 27inch.

Okay I hung the new iMac on the wall in my kitchen. Used the apple adapter I have a little apple remote control that works the dvd player fine. Of course the wireless keyboard and the wireless mouse work fine. I have an elgato tuner because this iMac is my dvr/tv does anyone have a remote that will work the iMac as a dvd and work the elgato hybrid tuner. Just trying to make this simple. Thanks

iTunes itself, that is it's built-in remote speaker function, will work only with an Airport Express. There may be other wireless speakers that have their own drivers or transmitter; someone else here may be able to make a recommendation.
