it uploads and downloads fine without any errors
I have one 3660 with worn keys so i might just swap out board and be done with it

I just found one of my old 3660 that i must have zapped a long time ago.
it has a continuous blinking 'tv' button
nothing that i have tried will revive it

I do not.


Thats not good i think its shot for good
But as a last ditch effort you can try pull out batteries press button to discharge then insert batteries
and press "1" and "3" simultaneously if nothing try a few times because it should be right after the 2 blinks but since you have none ...

You Mention that you get no light responses to key presses.
If you pull out the batteries and press keys to discharge capacitor
do you get 2 blinks when you insert batteries?

Sorry I do not have a list of remotes that I have done this on but a lot of the "Cable "
remotes are more or less dedicated to Cable
not just the power button but sometimes Vol and the digit keys as well. I thought this method of changing them to "Cable"
device was common knowledge

I tested yours without the shift and with importing the built in devices and changing all devices to cable the unshifted
power macro consistently worked

This is a bit old and I would use with Caution But perhaps a tool like this might be able to tell Fake From Real

Ok I remember my work around that makes the macro work
For the devices that you want in the Macro Edit Them and change the device type to Cable
In the device upgrade editor it is in the upper right hand corner
I have used this work around on several different models of remotes
You should examine to ...

Thanks! I downloaded your RMIR file to see how it works in my remote. FYI, I uploaded my RMIR file with the macro on Shift-Power to illustrate what I'm working with. Here’s a link to the file: //www.hifi-remote.com/forums/app.php/dload?file_id=27314

I just made Macro of Power; AUD; Power; TV; Power
and it consistently works correctly so somehow there is a difference in our remotes

Well this is getting confusing I put macro on normal Power button Not Shifted and it works and this is the NON Extended RCRP05
If the macro was only a few devices and I selected another device button later then to activated the macro I did have to press Cbl 1st but sometime selecting tv 1st the ...

Right now, I'm concentrating on getting a working remote without installing the extender. I'm close, but I've forgotten a lot in the last few years! For example, I want to put a macro on the Power button that issues power toggles for two devices, and I know that there are issues with that, so I'm ...

Just for future reference the difference between the RDF in RMIR version 2.14.0 and the current version of 3.211
is that the current RDF has [Extender] OEMSignature=31793179 added to it
Perhaps that is why the signature wouldn't change in version 2.14.0

If You are using RMIR version 2.14.0 as you previously stated you might want to try a newer version.
I noticed a difference in the extended RDF of version 2.14.0 and the current version of 3.211
