Does the software (MediaPortal) allow you access to the IR codes (many apps store the IR codes in a text file somewhere on the system). If so, this can be fixed with the help of the LrnHelper app:
1. Locate the file where IR codes are stored. IR codes will look like this:
0000 0048 .... .... .... (note, numbers will vary, but always start with 0000 and are in groups of 4 digits).
2. Download, unzip and run the LrnHelper app (
www.usbuirt.com/lrnhelper_0_0_5.zip)
3. Learn both the toggled and non-toggled codes for a button on your remote:
3a: With LrnHelper running, click the LEARN button.
3b: Position your remote an inch from the USBUIRT and PRESS AND HOLD the desired button until learning is complete.
3c. Copy/Paste the learned code from the LrnHelper app into a notepad or text file
3d. Repeat the LEARN process AGAIN for the same button. Note: takle care *not* to press any buttons on the remote between the two learn processes.
3e. Copy/Paste the learned IR code into the notepad/text file.
4. Now, with both codes learned, create a 'combo' code by concatenating the two codes together as follows:
code1#code2
So, the newly concatenated code will look something like:
0000 0067 0000 0002 0011 0022 0011 0387#0000 0067 0000 0002 0011 0022 0011 0387
5. Paste the 'combo' code back into LrnHelper. Now, click the TRANSMIT button and verify the set-top-box responds to the code. Then, click TRANSMIT *again* and verify that the set-top-box responds again. If the set-top-box responds each time you click transmit, then you have successfully created a combo code.
6. Paste the combo code into the IR code text file for the application you are using.
