Problem with IR remote on multiple tuners (TV cards)

[akos]

Hi all,

after searching the internet and this forum the whole weekend and finding no solution, I want to ask if anybody of you knows one.

I recently bought a HVR 930c in addition to my 2 'old' HVR 1100. Before installing the 930c the IR remote control worked perfectly with one of the 1100. After installing the 930c the IR.exe seems only to find the IR receiver of the 930c and not of the 1100.
I tried all combinations for the 1100 IR receiver, but it only works if I either un-plug the 930c and run IR.exe again and plug in the 930c afterwards or if I disbale the 930c in the device manager and run IR.exe again.
If I run IR.exe while having the 930c un-plugged, IR.exe says "MCE CIR found" which seems to be the IR receiver of the 1100. If I run it with the 930c plugged in it says "IR receiver found (885)" which seems to be the one the 930c.
I tried to figure out what command line switch, i.e. IR.exe /IRMCE, to use to force the IR.exe to use the 1100's IR receiver, but just with guessing I couldn't figure it out.
Also the registry key (HKLM\Software\Hauppauge\hcwTVWnd) seems to point to the 1100 as it says "Hauppauge WinTV-HVR 713x BDA Analog Capture" which is from my understanding the 1100.

Just to summarize:
Win7 32bit
1 WinTV HVR 930c
2 WinTV HVR 1100
and I need to use the IR receiver of one the 1100 as the USB 930c is 'hidden' behind the PC.

Any help would be very appreciated!

Best,
akos

What's the 5 digit model on the your 1110 board? 67xxx

Give this a try also - if it doesn't work - give me the 5 digit model.

edit the Startup Menu shortcut for "AutoStart IR"

change from

"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinTV\Ir.exe" /QUIET

to

"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinTV\Ir.exe" /MCECIR /QUIET

this should tell it to use the controller on the HVR-1110

Thanks very much!
It works perfectly again!
I must have missed out '/MCECIR' in my try and error session yesterday
