JP1 Remotes

Great help, thanks. I'll try to do the testing you guys suggested this weekend. My 3 kids keep my weekday free time to a minimum.

By the way, in "DI" mode, my DirecTV remote control must press POWER button twice to turn it ON or OFF, which sounds like a toggle thing....

Ok.
1) Are you using learns, or an upgrade where the TV won't turn on?
These results are with the learns

2) If you turn on the unit with learn #1 will learn #2 turn it off?
I think I tried all combinations. In my head what I wanted to find was a single upgraded command that would function as ON ...

This might be common to you guys, but I don't understand this yet.
I have a piece of equipment that the original remote works find for ON or OFF regardless of what "mode" it's in. It's a philips audio receiver that has a built in DVD player. The two "modes" I use on it are "TV" and "DI" (digital ...

Since I still have your attention :wink:
For my first question regarding the "learned" commands....
If I wanted to use an extender in the future, for my learned example above, is it as simple as creating a new device with these commands:
1 TV 1 NEC1 128 255 24 E7 245
2 TV 2 NEC1 128 255 25 67 249 ...

You guys rock!
Thank you so much for your patience, time, and helpful advice.
Yes, I had not selected my remote control and that was causing the grief. A simple fix and I'm up and running. Thanks again for a great community!

I'm trying to do this, but I've got a couple questions...

First, when I load the 1377 upgrade, do I replace it or add it (in other words, do I leave the code as 1377 or change it to something unique like 0377)?
Second, I'm trying the "replace" from above, and it gives me lots of warnings like:

A ...

There is absolutely no reason to do that. You have the codes, so make them keymoves or add them to an upgrade. As for the DirecTV codes, THIS has every command, including the ones you learned, so just load it.

Thanks for the response and link. The link you provided took me to a file for DISH ...

I have an ATLAS 1056B01 which is the 30333033 series. I just switched to DirecTV and want to continue to use my ATLAS remote. I changed the CABLE code to 1377, which works with almost all keys. I need some missing keys (like skip forward, format, and the four color keys). I think I needed to use the ...

Okay, here's my original buttons (the only ones I need):
BUTTON/PROTOCOL/DEVICE/OBC/EFC
=========================
KEY=AUX-DI/PROTO=RC6/DEV=21/OBC=63/EFC=187
KEY=TV/PROTO=RC6/DEV=0/OBC=63/EFC=187
KEY=DVD/PROTO=RC6/DEV=4/OBC=63/EFC=187
KEY=VOL+/PROTO=RC6/DEV=16/OBC=16/EFC=146
KEY=VOL-/PROTO=RC6/DEV=16 ...

Ok. Thanks. Last piece to my puzzle... If my original remote has more than 3 different "device" codes under the Rc6 protocol - do I need to create an upgrade for every 3 devices? For example if I learn 10 buttons off my original remote and then look at them in ir.exe and they all are rc6 but 5 ...

If I create an upgrade instead of using the learned command would the hex command of 3f work? Again the upgrade I already have that toggles the aux/di button shows HEX CMD=3F F9. Unless that f9 is unnecessary I wouldn't have known about it by looking at the learned command! Thanks for the replies.

You guys were spot on.
When I hit another key (ie Volume+) it then toggles....so now what?

By the way, I think I know one solutuion (by accident)...
I found a key-combo that I had done a couple years ago using RM and upgrade codes and crazy voodoo magic with the following properties:
PROTOCOL=RC6 ...

Thanks for the replies.
I understand the "tests" and will try tonight!

Try this test. Send your learned "Aux/DI" command, then send a DIFFERENT command to your receiver, then try the "Aux/DI" command again. Does it work the second time?
I don't think that test will work because of the way the receiver works with the original remote. Specifically the mode always goes ...

I learned a command from my original remote and it works, sort of.
The button in question is an input selction button.
On the original remote, it toggles between AUX and DI, which are two different inputs on the receiver. The original remote has one button labeled "AUX/DI". Now I learned this remote ...
