    hi guys, i recently bought a Hauppauge WinTV Plus with remote control tv tuner.

    i got everything else working EXCEPT the remote..

    the sender thingy's light is on, so i know i've plugged it in properly

    but...when i aim the remote at the IR receiver, nothing happens. i've installed the IR software and it's running on my taskbar, but nothing happens with the remote.

    and i have fresh batteries in my remote


    anyone have any solutions? thxs.

    maybe you forget plug the sensor at the card, the cable tip is the sensor and should be place at the front,

    You have to activate the remote in the Hauppauge software. It should have prompted you the first time you ran the software.

    I don't know what to tell you. I don't have mine installed right now, and it will be awhile before I can get to it. Go to the Hauppauge site, and download the latest drivers for the remote. I don't know which card you have, but look at the list in the attached URL, and click on it. You will find the IR remote software. Download it, and install it.
