Stop my VMC remote from starting Vista Media Center
I'm pretty happy with the way my remote control for Vista Media Center works with SageTV and the PlaceShifter. One thing bugs me, though:

When I press the green VMC-button on the remote, the PlaceShifter or SageTV client goes to the main menu. But Vistas Media Center also starts! I don't want that, can I stop that?

Check out this app - which lets the greenbutton open SageTV instead of VMC.

Looks good! But does it also work with the PlaceShifter?

You can use my software (see signature), you'll have an option (click on the "Setup Remote" button) to turn on "Exclusive use of MCE remote", this disable the green button as well a TV / DVD native mappings and you'll be also able to customize other buttons of the MCE remote.

Regards,
Stéphane.
