https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=12113 is not one of mine so doesn't have my installation instructions. If it had you would see that I tell people NEVER to use the expression "doesn't work", as it means absolutely nothing. If you want help we need specific details of what you did and what happened. Here are my instructions:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation depends on your Slingbox:
Slingbox 350/500
----------------
Follow the instructions at:
http://placeshiftingenthusiasts.com/how ... 0-and-350/
and use just the PL.BIN file.
Other Slingboxes
----------------
Follow the instructions at:
http://placeshiftingenthusiasts.com/for ... -350500-1/
If you have a Pro-HD then use the PL.BIN file. For other Slingboxes try both the files.
Once you have completed the setup and the BIN files have been downloaded to the Slingbox they are not used any more and can be deleted.
PROBLEMS ??
-----------
If you have problems please do NOT just report back it 'doesn't work', that is totally useless for someone trying to understand what is going on. So please report the following:
1. What model Slingbox do you have?
2. Was there any error message after you typed in the Code and tapped the Test button ?
3. Did you give the commands plenty of time to react ? (I have a DVR that takes about 6-8 seconds to power up/down)
4. If you are using a Solo did you try both BIN files ?
5. After completing the setup do any of the buttons work ?
6. If you are installing on a Solo or Pro-HD or older box, have you used a Digital Camera to confirm the IR Blaster is actually firing when you tap the Power button ? (Watch the tip of the IR Blaster thorugh the viewfinder while you tap a button. You should see a white (not red) flash). If you are using a 350/500 have you tried using the external blaster ?
7. Have you experimented with the placement of the IR Blaster ? On some devices this is critical so don't give up too quickly.
8. Are you sure the device is working correctly using the real remote ?
