Pinnacle Studio PCTV 41-key Remote

[pedroxp]

Does IRAssistant supports mouse movements and turn off monitor function and mute?

Slightly OT:

I am trying to set up the Pinnacle PCTV 41-key remote to operate PowerDVD. Currently, I am using the bundled "PCTV Remote" software and editing the profiles.ini file (not Girder). I've almost got it working, but if I can't get it 100%, I will try using Girder.

Questions:
1) Does anyone have a complete list of Key numbers for the new 41-key remote? The only information I can find has incomplete codes from the old remote(less keys). Or can you suggest another way to figure out the key numbers?

2) Is there a different command for SPACEBAR with the new drivers? (With PowerDVD, SPACEBAR+^SPACEBAR incorrectly STOPS the player, acting like an "S" key. Spacebar should PAUSE.)

My remote is pictured here:

I ended up going with IR Assitant. It works perfectly with my PCTV remote and has all the options I need (and more).

To answer myself, in case anyone else is looking for the info (from Pinnaclesys.com forum):

Here are the codes for the new (larger) remote for PCTV, I hope I got them all right and that the following diagram is clear enough:

Try adding these lines to the profiles.ini, inside the [PCTV Vision], [PCTV Vision - VCR] and [PCTV Vision - Camera] sections:

; Menu button pops up the menu (ESC if you press it longer)
