windows 7 mce plugin goes crazy

Post by cargen »

Hi,

i have a strange problem with windows 7 mce service plugin.

when i install it, eventghost starts to log mceremote.unknow continuosly.
i must disable the plugin to stop the problem.

i am not sure if you need any further information.

does anyone else had the same problem?

i am trying to use eventghost with the mce plugin and dvbviewer plugin.

thanks a lot.

It really sounds like IR interference. Do you have any fluorescent lighting in the area? Plasma or LCD TVs turned on? Sunlight hitting the IR receiver? Try covering the IR receiver with a completely opaque material. If that resolves the problem, then you can start looking for the source of external interference.
