Vista Media Center "IR hardware not detected"

What would it take for Vista Media Center to recognize USBUIRT as valid IR hardware? I don't even want to use it for that, but in order to be able to change inputs to S-Vidio or Composite, Vista Media Center requires you to have IR hardware. Otherwise you're stuck with the analog cable input.

hello,

I have Vista Ultimate and have the same problem.
it only works with the HAUPPAUGE 150MCE IR and not the USBUIRT.
can anyone please help?

Sadly it appears that neither Microsoft nor the USB-UIRT developer care enough about this product to provide this badly needed Vista Ultimate functionality. So I use SageTV instead.

you are right

i'm really sad to say you are right.
in israel i posted that there is no help from usbuirt at all.
i know that most users buy today the pvr-150 MCE that works fine.
i'm stuck with the old usbuirt and no support.
