Looking good.

URL now has C2011, which covers 45-101

with 45-101 only power button seems to work.

Thanks

Are you testing every button? Custom 10 on that file should have acted as Channel Down ?

my bad, sorry, you were right, the only other button aparrt from power that works is - custom 10 > channel down / down

OK, here is 2012 to cover up to 150. But I am not convinced, as all the codes we have found so far are less than 30 so it would be very odd if we found ones this high up.

Just to reassure me, go through C2010 again VERY CAREFULLY, because that is where I expected the codes to be.

just tested all buttons on 2012, only power seems to work

I will go through 2010 once again

I went over C2010 again just to double check it.
So here is the final list (the only difference is "down" button, which I must have missed previously):

info > volume down / left
channel + > mute
channel - > red button (add channel)
page + > menu
1-9 > work as channels 1-9
last > power on/off
power > power on/off
stop > green (autoscan)
skip backard > Channel down / down
skip forward > exit
0 > enter
OK (central button) > volume up / right
down > channel up / up

Neither other, nor custom buttons work.
But this is quite enough for this satellite receiver if there was a way to assign them to the right buttons.

Thanks again!

BINGO !! It was the CH+ one I couldn't understand why we couldn't find. So as you say, we now have a working remote. The same URL has it now as S2010.

All working ? What functions are we missing ?

Thank you very much Alan!

Remote works perfectly!
The only thing is that 0 does not seem to work and also, if possible to assign the center (round) key as OK (or enter), in addition to the already working enter key.

Thanks again!

Mapped <Enter> to the OK button. S2010 at the same URL

Very frustrating we couldn't find the code for 0. Logic says it would either be zero, but that is the code for Enter/OK, or 10, but you said that was the Mute command.

And should we have we found codes for Yellow and Blue ?

And any others we are missing ?

And you did miss one, so maybe I did as well. So I've done another test that definitely uses all the unused codes up to 75. And I've included zero just to make sure. It's at https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=12381

So can you test that one VERY CAREFULLY

Now here 7 works as 0 ; 0 works as enter.
The only other button that works is power > on/off.
Otherwise the original remote has following buttons which are not really needed:

Sat (which is a asterix place *)
TV/Radio (which is at Hyphen place)
Info (separate button)
Fav (separate button)
A / Recall (separate button)
MP (separate button)
F / Pause (separate button)
and 3 empty separate buttons
Yellow and Blue buttons are not needed as well

If just the 0 is added and OK changed to middle button then it is a fully working remote

Thank goodness for that

Wonder why we missed that last time ?

As you say, that is probably as far as we can go so I have uploaded the final package at https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=12382

Thanks for your patience and hard work in figuring all this out.

Cheers

Al

Just tested every single button on the final version and they all work as
intended!

Thank you so much Alan!

I enjoyed it

Not sure if anyone else will need this remote but it's still good to have the codes for it

Thanks again!
