I beleive I have found a problem in the GC-100 plugin. I am using Xantech double unit mini-mouse emitters. I started off by testing 1 double cable directly from the GC-100. Works perfectly! Then I started setting up with 5 double emitter cables through a Xantech 791-44 connecting block using the GC-CGX adapter cable. Again everything is working so far. During testing I then found that my Pioneer 563 DVD/DVD-A/SACD player uses the same remote codes as my Pioneer DVL-909 LD/DVD Combi player. Whoops!! Okay no problem, move the emitter cable for the 909 off the Xantech block and directly onto port 2 of the GC-100. Went and changed the IR codes for the 909 to IR port 2 on the GC-100. No go!!! Same thing for port 3. It looks like although you can configure port 2 or port 3 in the IR codes with the GC-100, the plugin does not do anything with that info to route to the 2nd or 3rd IR ports! HEELLPPP!

I just retested this with my GC-100, and I was able to change the port and module configuration of the IR code to selectively send it to any of the six outputs.



I would double-check your GC-100 configuration (via web configuration) to make sure that your other IR Connectors (ports) are configured as "IR Out".

All connectors are configured as IR Out

Does Sensor notifications have to be enabled?

Yes it does.

OK I will try that tonight(Mon) -- I am confused though, according to the GC-100 documentation 'Sensor Notifications is used to automatically signal changes in sensor state. Any connector configured as an input will send notification unless this feature is disabled' I don't understand why when all the ports are used as outputs this has to be on and why port 1 works but 2&3 don't. This function was disabled by factory default.

Yep That worked!! Does make any sense, but I am not going to bother to try and understand why!!

Thanks Scott!!

I don't know either. It doesn't really state it in their documentation. When you asked, I simply tested it both ways and found it was required.
