How would one larger upgrade work? If you assign this larger upgrade to a device button, which device would it control? Perhaps if you tell me what you're trying to do, rather than how you want to do it, I can better help.

The first step should be to check our file section to see if we already have upgrades for any of your devices, as that will save you a lot of time. If our upgrades are missing any buttons, you can fix that by adding them.

The next step, for devices that we don't have, is to learn all the buttons ...

just a little add on to this comment, I selected all the RC5 TV codes and hit "Convert To Device Upgrade" then selected "Devices" and edit and changed the Device type from Cable to TV.
Absolutely! You have done it! Nothing to do with .girr or export. If your learned signals are all the buttons you ...

Yes. That's exactly what you do.

Can you post the RMIR file with all the learned signals in, to the File Section and post the link to it here. Someone will have a look at it and tell you what you can do to build your own device to operate your TV. I'll definitely have a look, though others are ...

So I managed to take my cable and split the 6x1 connector and wires and glue all together to make a working 3 x connector.

RMIR
RMPB

RMIR is the one I used first (Not sure as of yet what the others are for or do ...
