MCE USB Remote to EG, IR blaster & USB-UIRT as a blaster

Post by Zardoz »

Hello Everyone,

I have searched and failed to find a solution so perhaps you can help me.
First of all this is Windows 7 x64 and I am using a MCE USB remote to operate 7MC.
The USB receiver has two RCA jacks on back and it came with one IR Blaster.
I cannot use 7MC to configure the blaster since I have no TV tuners etc and it seems that detection is the way 7MC enables the blaster configuration.

So... What I want to do is use Event Ghost to receive the multi colored buttons on the MCE remote and based on those buttons turn on / off my TV and Amp. I can use the IR Blaster that came with the remote for the TV and the USB-UIRT transmitter for the Amp.

In all other cases I need the standard windows driver to work properly and normally without double key strokes.

Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I don't understand your question - it was a bit all over the place.

You have a USB-UIRT... it seems you can just use that with EG and you are done. Yes?
setup... XBMC, W7MC for DVR & Live OTA TV, JRMC for multi-zone audio, EG, MiCasaVerde Vera3, USB-UIRT IR receiver, Harmony remote, 5.2 home theater system
