Maige TV HD2

Don't worry about being forced to change the remote (I have a 659)

You may have to repeat the learning procedure to get it in there.
Hi Alanrichey,

I added a new device named Maige TV HD2 on your Harmony account slingboxes. This is an IPTV box that I brought recently and I would like to use it with my Slingbox Solo.

All the buttons on the new device are learned from my original Maige TV HD2 remote through my Harmony 659 (same as yours).

Could you please help me to create a bin file for this device?

For your reference, this is the device official website, it is in Chinese though.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Ricky

Hi Alanrichey,

Really appreciate for your help! I downloaded your bins and tested on my slingbox Solo. I found that my Maige TV HD2 responded to some commands too many times (in Harmony terms), so I lowered the respond setting of the device from 3 to 1 in your Harmony account, could you please re-generate the bin from the new settings? Sorry for the trouble.

I tested most of the buttons and found the bin work great.

Regards,
Ricky

Actually that has nothing to do with it. I simply use the Harmony to get the Code numbers. It is the Slingbox systemn that repeats the signals (I think 3 times). But I have rebuilt the BIN files with the repeats set to zero. So re-run the setup uisng the new ones, same URL.

MaigeTV Harmony Question

Post by svenie99999 »

Hi there,

I also have a maigetv hd2 box but have lost my remote whilst travelling.

I would like to buy a harmony remote to replace it and was wondering if you know it is possible to export the setting for your harmony and send me the file so that I can put the settings on my mine? would be very grateful if this was possible.

Thanks for reading :-)

You will need Ricky for this. I don't think you can swap files but he may be able to install the device on your Harmony account.
