Does anyone know of a generic driver that can work with Streamzap's USBIR2 receiver? I tried the plugin for Streamzap but Streamzap's driver only supplies codes related to their remote. Other remote controls I have can trigger the light on the receiver but are not recognized by Streamzap's software.

Thanks,
Steve

Steve, StreamZap does not allow other remotes to work with their receiver.

This has now changed.

You need http://www.streamzap.com/tmp/PCRemote.exe

and the new streamzap plugin included with G4.

that's great news! but i was using this configuration already and have had no luck using a diffrerent remote. with girder 4, when adding a new remote, what settings do i use?

i keep fiddling with it, but it'be be great if you could tell me (if you know).

If I remember correctly... :)

Goto the settings page, highlight the streamzap plugin, click settings button and select raw ir codes...

I don't have one near me to test right now :x

actually, this pcremote driver is newer than the one i had. funny though casue i downloaded it from the streamzap website just a few days ago.

hmm. anyhow, i'm gonna try it.

downloaded and installed the new pcremote software. the plugin for girder is installed.

but on the settings/plugins in girder, i don't see a streamzap tab to highlight for changing any plugin settings.

any ideas?

Is the plugin enabled? ie in the list of plugins is there a tick next to the streamzap plugin?

there is no settings tab. goto the plugins tab, highlight the streamzap plugin, click the settings buttons.
