Bug w/ remote 1.5

BONEHEAD · May 16, 2003, 10:56 PM

Well w/ the new release yesterday I installed all new software. I have found you can no longer use the remote w/ multiple users logged in. When I log in it works when I switch users I get a Dcom error on the second user's account. Or vise versa either way it only works on One account. I have tried this on a clean install of xp also. Why do I care? Well my wife has her account and here sister has an account so they don't hoes my settings. wife's account is Admin and sister in law is User.

The answer from ATI

The Multimedia Center application requires dedicated system resources which it is unable to share, as well as an administrator account. Unfortunately, it is not possible to use the program in the configuration you are attempting to use it in.

Another important note - any changes you make to Remote 1.5 (and 1.4, I think) will only apply upon rebooting.
