Uploading Codes to Slingbox M1

Has anyone tried to successfully upload remote codes to the Slingbox M1?

I'm trying to upload as a Custom remote file this Dreamlink HD file, using the Slingplayer PC standalone program (using the procedure provided on the sling website):

https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=11556

I've tried both the the PL and RV file, but the software just hangs and never accepts the file.

I've tried the suggestion of resetting with the button at the back, but I still can't upload the file ... it just hangs ...

For comparison, I've tried other remote codes and they also can't be uploaded.

Can anyone help? Thanks,

I've searched and can't find any related post or FAQ on this.

PS. I know that I can use the Coolsat 4000Pro file and I do get basic functionality with that option (from the Sling software), but it is missing all the PVR (record, etc) buttons that work with the Dreamlink.

.... I solved my own problem. I made sure I saved both BIN files into the Slingplayer program directory (and for safe measure, also in a "Locales" directory) and then uploading the code worked fine..

Hope this helps someone else as well.

The M1 actually uses the PL File. A full set of instructions is at http://placeshiftingenthusiasts.com/how ... -slingbox/
