JP1 Remotes

Sorry, I've been busy. But I'll check on the menu / OK thing tonight when I get home.

Good point about the menu button. As it is, the stuff in the menus doesn't seem that important to day-to-day operations with a set top box. Sometimes, I don't WANT all the features mapped to the JP1 remote, I only want the things that the rest of the family can't mess up. :-) Then for the rare ...

Thanks, Rob, esp. for the info on how to work the files section!

There's a few button codes I did not have in the version I uploaded. Call me scatterbrained. I guess I forgot that I did a quick, "test it out" version the other night.

I'll upload the second, then delete my first try.

27 of 30 original buttons are mapped in this new version, before I was missing ...

Rob,

Well, I downloaded your DT-250 upgrade, and it did not work well at all for me. There are a lot of wierd mappings between the functions and the buttons sheet. But at the end of the day, no left / right button codes are really there.

I uploaded my version. I left it as CBL/2000 because I didn ...

My remote has 50 or so buttons; do you typically make 5 devices worth of upgrades, so you can get 250 different codes? Limit your search space to those "close" to the known original button codes?

Making the upgrade with KM seems nearly as tedious, but maybe you keep them around and just change the ...

Rob,

I move slow, and my free time comes in small increments. I don't think those DT250 upgrades existed when I decided to do this, and I forgot to look back when I finally did the learning. I'll try them.

From a previous message, I did the exhaustive search with the unit powered on, but without ...

Questions first, then additional info:
I still am going to make a upgrade code that reflects what I have so far (without volume/left-right control) and upload for others to use. Should I just pick any old device setup code, or is there someone that assigns these? Since I didn't do the exhaustive ...

I've never seen that protocol before.

Are you sure the signals used for Vol are also used as left/right?
The remote has the channel and volume buttons arranged in a diamond pattern, doing dual duty for menu selection when in the menus. Not that unusual, I think; our samsung TV uses the same ...

I'm sorry, I didn't completely read the instructions before I uploaded, So I don't meet all the criteria. If you need more from me before you can help, let me know.

I'm trying to make an upgrade to represent the APEX DT250 DTV converter box. Most everything comes out as NEC1 Device 12 Subdevice 251 ...

Hey, guys, THANKS for all the info. The Atlas does look like a really good deal.

Has anyone experimented with making their own label for the F1/OnDemand/F2 area? I suspect they're the standard silk-screened stick-on things. In other projects I've used the method of printing reversed on a overhead ...

I currently have a RS 15-1994 and two Cinema 7+'s in my house, and a few more locations that I may want to add universal remotes to. With the upcoming DTV transition, I'll have converter boxes (with analog passthru) at most of my TVs and will still have analog NTSC for TIVO and DVD that are on a ...
