Having to disable/enable USBCIR for WMC remote to work?
Man, I hope someone still reads this forum. :)
So I recently moved and I thought this issue might be an artifact of the move, but now I'm thinking it's just A Thing.
WMC running on a Windows 7 box, with a USB eHome infrared receiver connected. WMC remote will not work unless I go into Device Manager and disable, then subsequently enable, the "eHome Infrared Receiver (USBCIR)" device under "Universal Serial Bus controllers," at which point everything starts working again until I suspend or reboot the PC, at which time everything is broken again until I disable/enable as above.
This has been replicated with more than one receiver (in fact originally I suspected the hardware) and both receivers seem to work fine on my Windows 10 machine.
Any ideas as to how I could fix this definitively?
Thanks much!
