Remote Control on C540 All-in-one

I just purchased a C540 All-in-One, with Windows 8, recently upgraded to 8.1
It can be also used as a TV or video recorder, and I run, successfully, the AVerMedia TV Player App, setting up correctly the TV and channels tuning (I used mouse and keyboard)
However, I failed to use the IR Remote Control. It simply doesn't have any effect on the PC.
I checked with the vendor, also using a different PC and a different Remote Control, with the same negative results.
Batteries have been replaced and IR Driver has been upgraded: no joy.
Since it is a brand new PC I don't think is a hardware problem, rather than a software one. I checked on the Users Manuals (PC and Remote Control), but I couldn't find any useful info (Indeed, the Remote Control User Guide is very poor).
Is there any solution to this problem?

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 Service on clients is disabled

    Hello everyone,
    I have a deployment of SCCM 2012 setup, a big improvement over 2007 so far, and everything was working great.  For whatever reason when I push the client installation to PC's or the client is installed during a OSD, everything appears to work perfectly
    except the Remote Control doesn't work.  Further investigation lead me to the Configuration Manger Remote Control Service which was disabled.  If i manually enable it Remote Control works like expected.
    In the Client Settings Policy for  the site I have the remote control configured and setup for access.  If I go to the client and look at the remote control settings under the options in the System Center app my policy settings are applied correctly
    there, yet the service is disabled.
    I am wondering if I am missing something or if anybody would know why this is happening.  I have ruled out Group Policy disabling this service.  As far as i know this is a new service to SCCM 2012.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Eric,
    In short yes, I have done a few client push installations to PC's that had the SCCM 2007 client on them and everything seems to go fine except the remote control service remains disabled.  One was a Windows XP PC that we are going to leave alone and
    see if the service starts on its own.  We have installed software and updates through the new client already on this machine so I know the 2012 client was installed correctly and is getting policies.  I did push the client install to two Win7 PC's
    and the remote control service did not start right away, however when I checked them a few hours later the service was running and remote control sessions were successful.  So I'm not sure if I just wasn't patient enough or if something else was going
    on.
    Testing to see if stuff is working after an OSD build is just easier for me.  I can image a PC, log in, make sure everything is working correctly, if not, I'll make changes, and then just re-image again. So far deployments of both WinXP and Win7 seem
    to exhibit this behavior of the service not starting.  Could it be something to do with the WIM files I am using for the OSD's?  I had just made copies of the WIM files we used in SCCM 2007.
    If you want me to provide some screenshots or log files I'll do what I can, however I will be out of the office for the weekend so I can't post them right away.

  • Unplugging all network devices from Fios router prevents DVR freezing and remote control lock ups.

    All,
    I recently had a Verizon tech visit my house due to constant DVR and remote control freezing. TV content was freezing whether it was locally recorded, pulled from another DVR in the house, or On Demand. On a hunch after the tech tested everything and was about to leave, he unplugged my gigabit switch from the Fios router. Lo and behold everything started running perfectly. Since to the tech, the problem was solved, he closed the case and was on his way. The probem is of course I have more devices than the built in router switch provides ports for. My network is compised of an 8 port Netgear gigabit switch downstream from the Fios router with two wireless access points (with their own built in gigbait switches) connecting to the Netgear gigabit switch. There are no loops in the switch topology. I've tried changing out the router, the gigabit switch, removing the wireless acces points individually as well as plugging the access points directly into the Fios router switch (one at a time with no Netgear switch in the middle) and all scenarious cause the DVR/remote control freeezing to come back. The only devices I can plug into the Fios router without causing freezes are PC's....anything with it's own switch essentially brings the network to it's knees. If anyone has an idea how to get my network back in one piece AND make the DVR's/remotes behave, I'd greatly appreciate the help!
    My Fios equipment:
    MI-424WR GEN-3I  rev I (eye) running firmware 40.19.36
    5 Motorola HD-DVRs all QIP 7232-2 running software release 1.9.1 platform build 25.39 (Oct. 22, 2012)
    Specific config:
    75/35 Fios connecting via ethernet from ONT. Set-top boxes connect to Fios router coax port via powered splitter.
    *All SNR/dB mesasurements taken by the tech from the set-top boxes and router are well within spec.
    Fios router provides DHCP addressing. Wireless N access points are configured for roaming with the same SSID and non-overlapping channels. Access points are not providing routing or IP adressing...all layer 3 and up services still provided by Fios router

    I am inclined to echo several of the "tns" comments, particularly with respect to your splitter.  My layout is based on a standard 8-port splitter of the type usually supplied in a VZ install.  In addition I do have a ChannelPlus device that functions as a powered splitter, but its use is limited to distribution of secondary TV signals to older analog TVs.  My first point then is that this may be an offender as "tns" has suggested.
    In addition, I'd describe your wiring as "non-standard" (red-colored items in the above diagram)  As you're no doubt aware, with 75/35 you don't really need Cat5e from the ONT (your original diagram).  It seems the highest tiers do require it, but in "standard" installations this run is coax directly to an 8-port non-powered splitter (below diagram), then from that splitter via coax to all STBs and CableCards, other TVs, et.), and also to the Actiontec.   Subsequent feeds from the Actiontec to wired devices (including WAPs) are via Ethernet (typically Cat 5e).
    In fact I don't immediately see how your STBs get additional services such as On Demand and IMG with the wiring shown in your diagram (perhaps someone can help me out here).  In "standard" installs the Actiontec must be connected via coax to the ONT to provide such services to other network clients.  I don't see that requirement being met here.
    For starters I'd recommend that you change your service from WAN Ethernet to WAN coax.  This can easily be accomplished over the telephone.  Then I'd run coax directly from the ONT to the Actiontec as in my revised diagram below (blue-colored items).  If your setup can manage with this arrangement, I think it will help greatly with the "freezing" issue.

    Subsequent Note:  You provided additional info while I was composing a response, and I'd  like to offer another comment.  Structured wiring "panels" of the type usually available are pre-configured to provide data, phone and video.  This usually means that one is in certain respects limited by the ideas of the panel designer.  I have what can be called a structured wiring layout, but it really is composed of individual small custom networks for  each service (automation, security, video, data, telco, etc.), configured so that all wiring terminates in "home run" fashion at a central panel (a few details here: http://forums.verizon.com/t5/Home-Networking/Cmon-Show-Us-Your-Network/m-p/481733#M765 ).  This layout makes it easier to make adjustments (and there have been quite a few over the intervening years).  I'm thinking that in your case you may have to abandon the powered splitter (presumably) built into the panel in order to avoid your present fix.
    Subsequent Subsequent Note:   From your description it seems that you are using more than a single "whole house" DVR to supply programming to other devices.  This is a bit puzzling to me because somewhere along the line I recall reading that only a single whole house DVR was allowed on the network.  Can you elaborate a bit?

  • Re: HP All-in-one Remote app and HP 4620

    Hi
    I already have a HP B110a printer and have just bought an Officejet 7610 as I wanted A3 scanning and printing.
    I was using the old HP Printer Control app with my iPad 1 but I cannot get the app to see the new 7610 printer. It is definitely connected to the network as other computers in the network can find it, and the ipad is definitely connected to the same network and it can still find the B110a printer. I have tried updating to the new HP All-in-one Remote app but now find that I need iOS v6 or later which is not supported by ipad1. This is obviously very frustrating for me as I checked before I bought the printer that it would work with this app ( according to your web site, it does) and that I could run the new app on iPad 1. According to the web site and your FAQ for the app, it requires ios v4.3 or higher (I am running ios v5.1.1) Is it because the Officejet 7610 won't work with the old HP Printer Control app? If that is the case, then what is the solution to ipad1 users? Alternatively is it possible to still get the HP All-in-one Remote app running on iosv4.3 as this website still says it does.

    Hi BookerJ,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums.  I see that you have some questions about using your iPad1 with the HP Printer Control app. 
    The information on iTunes is the correct information.  The HP All-in-One Printer Remote Mobile App FAQ document hasn’t been updated yet to reflect the most recent version of the app.  The document has been submitted for revision to reflect the new minimum iOS requirements of iOS 6.0 or later, for the updated app.
    One of the questions in the HP AiO app is “Why can’t my mobile device find a printer on my wireless network?”.  Please review the items in that list.  If the app is still unable to find the printer, please follow the steps in Apple’s Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset document.
    I do not have any devices running the Printer Control version of the app to confirm whether it supports the Officejet 7610 printer.

  • Accept Certificate Fingerprints for all remote controlled WS

    Frustrating thing is that one has to accept the certificate for each and every remote controlled PC.
    One of our hotline guys got a new Harddisk (no roaming Profile) and all started from beginning. So I found a solution: I exported the registry from HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Novell\ZCM\Remote Management\Viewer\Settings\DeviceFingerprints from another PC and imported it for the user on the new PC. OK everything working again without any question "Accept this certificate ...".
    So I created a bundle with the following Launch Script Action and assigned it to all of my helpdesk users:
    reg export "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Novell\ZCM\Remote Management\Viewer\Settings\DeviceFingerprints" \\Srv1\Vol1\Dir1\DevFngrPrnt%COMPUTERNAME%.reg
    copy /y \\Srv1\Vol1\Dir1\DevFngrPrnt*.reg \\Srv1\Vol1\Dir1\AllDevFngrPrnt.reg
    reg import \\Srv1\Vol1\Dir1\AllDevFngrPrnt.reg
    So with every launch all Fingerprints get exported and all the other users will import all of them. But still at least one Admin need to permanently accept the certificate.
    Of course there are a lot of duplicates since each user exports the same Fingerprints. But the import takes care of it and just leaves one fingerprint for each device.
    My QUESTION now: Where can I extract that Fingerprint directly from all the remote machines distribute it to all Hotline users? I did not find the source of it.
    Thanks Klaus

  • LaserJet Pro MFP M125nw - Scan to app All-in-One Remote does not work

    Hi gurus,
    Basically I have pruchased that super-printer and I am now trying to achieve scan to my mobile devices.
    I have one iPad 2 on iOS 7, on 2 Android devices (smaller tablet and phone) both running Kitkat 4.4.2
    I am trying to submit a scan from all these devices and retrieve the output within my mobile devices, actually this is fairly described here and concerns accurately my printer model :  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02486319&tmp_task=useCategory&cc=us&destPage=pr...
    Unfortunately, What happens :
    - From my iPad, the AiO app states that my printer is not compatible with the application !!
    - From my 2 Android devices, the All-in-One Remote app will work fine, except the scan feature as nothing happens (well, when tapping either 'Preview' or 'Scan' button in the Scan section, I see a 'Cancel' button during 0,1 second and I am back to that scan section)
    Any one could help please ???

    Is the product description misleading ? Is the AiO app not really reasy to support this printer ?

  • Hp all-in One remote prints test page but cannot find printer for anything else

    The HP All-in-One application can print test pages on my 8610 but when I go to any document or photo and try to print I get the following message "This Printer is not available." I have checked and have the latest version of the HP All-in-one Printer Remote application and the HP Print Service Plugin applications from the Google Play store. I am using a Samsung Galaxy 5 running Android 5.0. If I print a page from my laptop using wireless to this printer, I can see the All-in-One application tracking my printer status so I know it can see the printer.  The app on the phone will show the status under the printer name going from Ready to Unavailable to Ready as a document is printed and then finished. I am printing directly with local WIFI and am not using the ePrint feature.

    Hello , Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I hope you have a pleasant experience here. I'd like to help you with the issues you are having printing from your Samsung Galaxy S5 to your HP Officejet Pro 8610 e-All-in-One printer. Firstly, do you have the printer plugged directly into a wall outlet? The printer has a power moderator built in, so if it is plugged into a power surge bar or battery backup it may be getting inconsistent power. This can cause all kinds of firmware glitches (like the printer status not being broadcast properly). If that doesn't immediately resolve the issue, please follow the steps below: Network Power Reset: Let's leave the router on and unplug the power cable (NOTE: Do not reset the router.), then do the same with the printer, and shut down the computer. After a full minute, plug the router back in, wait for it to fully power up, then plug the printer back in and wait for the wireless light to become solid. Once both the router and printer are on, go ahead and turn the computer back on. Doing this will refresh the network connection. Restore Network Defaults and Reconnect:  1. On the front panel of the printer, touch your wireless icon at the top2. Select Settings.3. Select Restore Network Defaults.4. Restart your printer.5. Once it's booted back up, touch the wireless icon again.6. Select Settings.7. Select Wireless Setup Wizard and follow the prompts to enter your wireless network details.8. Try enabling the web services again. Another thing I would suggest, would be to download the HP ePrint app, rather than the All-in-One Remote. The Remote is moreso suited for scanning to your phone from your product, so I would suggest trying the ePrint app (you can download it from the Play Store). If the issue persists after these steps, please answer the following questions so I'm better able to assist: Are you able to print reliably from any other devices on your network?What brand and model of router are you using?What is it that you are trying to print? (ie. E-mail, photo, document)What app are you printing from? (Some Android apps have a direct printing feature)I look forward to hearing back from you and working towards a resolution to this issue!Have a great weekend.

    http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/all-in-one/dx1210/pqq09a-02900g/download?os=25
    You should uninstall this firstly and after new reboot, install this package again.

    Am (attempting) to print direct from my MacBook - admittedly I did not install any printer drivers during the Leopard (clean) install and am a bit confused as to whether I'm now using the right one, but from what I can gather from the threads like this now littering this forum it wouldn't have made much of a difference. I had infact presumed my problem was just that - that I hadn't the right driver.
    Like I hinted at previous; I can reconnect the HP to my old G4 running Tiger and print with no trouble whatsoever.
    Trying to print from Leopard brings up the print dialog, and subsequent utility as it should but then nothing - as if the MacBook's not talking with the HP (though it happily recognises it as being there and what model it is etc.).
    I have not yet attempted to print over the network, mainly because I couldn't succeed as is. Or tried to scan as it happens (I hardly ever use the built in scanner as I have a better one and the PSC is my backup - I scan a lot in my job).
