<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in">I just got my IR Blaster receiver today, plugged it in and, Wa-La! Success. I can now move around using the remote, so I'm very happy. It'll take some getting used to, mainly learning what buttons do what, etc., but this was a major hurdle for me. However, there are to things that I saw that I thought someone might have some info on. <BR><BR>First, when I go the my videos section, I can change the Parental control level by pushing the desired level on the remote and entering the PIN (pressing 4 then the PIN). However, there are 2 options on that screen that say "MENU - Options" and "INFO - Actions". These 2 option don't seem to map to any button on my remote. Any ideas on how I can get these 2 options mapped?<BR><BR>Second, when I actually play a video, it plays with Xine. I can pause, fast forward, etc., but when I stop the video, I want to have Xine exit out and go back to the fron
t end. This doesn't happen. The Xine splash screen stays up, and I have to ssh into the box and kill the process. Any thoughts on how to do this more gracefully?<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR>Harry<o:p></o:p></P>
