JP1 Remotes

Well, you guys have been extremely helpful and patient. That file works just fine Robman and I wish I could say I see why... but I still don't understand.

I hate having to have someone do something for me that I want to do.

But honestly, this stuff just isn't clicking for me.

In a couple weeks ...

Thanks for the effort Rob but...

That only gets me back to where I was before this all started :oops:

...well, almost...

The DVD Power button now emits only a faint and brief light when you press the power button and the signals are not sent. If you press Select and or 0 these keys still operate ...

Nils,

If I do that then then I rewrite the real TV stuff back to TV will it just put me back where I started?

Or can I use any device instead of TV as long as I use that device number?

Liz,

I have not even thought about extenders... you see how confusing this is for me already :)

I'm going to ...

Okay,

Now it looks like I've done everything I need to do but the remote ony sends a dim pulse in DVD mode when I hit power and no pulse when I hit any other keys (select should still turn it on, etc)

Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong, here?

Lots going on there:

1) The SP protocols bit was already in the RDF (#5 in the above screenshot)
2) In the "Spcl Prot Fns" tab, after I select DVD -> Power (Device and Key), even with any other key, the "Type" field is grey.
3) I can paste the protocol ...

DVD device code is 522. I want to reassign the Power button to actually send a tiny macro of:

Select, 0

Thats it Just have the Power button send DVD Select then DVD 0 with 0 delay.

Easy? How (using IR)?

First, backlight issue fixed. Manual DOES NOT explain it the way you just did Robman. Thanks.

You guys are really killing me :) ... maybe I'm just not being clear with my question so I'm going to be VERY clear about my goal first... then re-ask/reply to your posts.

Second, to clarify, device code ...

Dude, I'm losing it. I have all the keys I need already in the remote... the signals are there. All the signals come from the book, and they all work.

Marantz SR-52 = 1089
Xbox = 0522
Samsung TV = 60

I just want to

-move DVD Power to DVD PIP
-make macro ...

No, thats what I'm saying. I lost the backlight to any keypress the first time I uploaded anything (VPT) to the remote.

I have my remote programmed with all the buttons I want to use for now. Just some of them are in different places than I want them and I want to automate some sequences.

For now:

1) How do I get files to use with either KM or RM out of my remote so I can see what commands are associated with those ...

I've got IR600 and it uploads fine. I downloaded a VPT update just fine. That works. So I know the software/cable/remote are talking.

I'm an average joe with a knack for woodworking, nutrition and gaming. I can handle hardware, Windows and driver updates just fine. When we get in to programming and ...
