New Inteset / Insignia / Sanyo / Nexus JP1 remote

My RC02s seem to be showing their age and so was surfing ebay looking for replacement when I stumbled upon these. While I'd prefer backlighting, I think I could live without it. The buttons are large enough and I am so used to the layout, that I don't think I absolutely need the lighting that is on my existing remotes.

So I think maybe I'll be the guinea pig and order a couple. I'll post back here if/when I get them.

I've got an FTDI cable so should be all set.

After digging into this a little, I realized this is probably one of the most ubiquitous UEI remotes around today. So I went ahead and picked one up myself at Best Buy. It's a new signature we've not seen before, but at least raw download works with an FTDI cable. Looks like JP2. Stay tuned for more developments ...

EDIT: Correction, JP1.4

I picked one of these up too. Now if I could just find my FTDI cable...

You've got some time to find it. We're getting close to getting it working but aren't quite there yet.

Big thanks to Mathdon and 3FG for getting this working. They ran across quite a few unusual problems to sort out.

I discovered a few interesting things about this remote along the way.

- No learning
- No backlight
- No Audio device button (but you can assign an audio device to any button)

Like its cousins, it is 8 devices internally plus a few phantom keys. If you have a TV, DVD, STB, STREAM box and audio device, just put audio on a phantom device and just use volume punch thru.

The main benefit of this remote is you can pick one up off the shelf.

Please explain how i utilize beyond 4 devices on it. I have programmed all 4 devices, but if you program +4, how do you access those devices from the remote??

Additional devices are dev... on the general tab. Access via macros with one step which is dev... Works exactly the same way as all JP1 remotes with phantom devices.

Thanks for your reply...
I've never used a phantom device.. Could you explain further...

You need to assign the macro for a phantom device to a real (physical)
shifted or un-shifted button such as shift+TV or shift+green

Hello! I just bought a new Inteset INT-422 remote, and it appears to be the INT-422-3 which isn't yet supported. I've used RemoteMaster to program other remotes (like the RCA) but I'm clueless as to how to modify/update the RDF files. I pulled a raw download from my remote after factory resetting it, and uploaded it here:

It would be great if someone could create a working RDF for this device. Please let me know how else I can help, and thank you in advance!

Thanks for the Raw Download. This is interesting. The previous Inteset 422 remotes are JP1.3 remotes, but this new version is a JP1.4N. So making a new RDF will take a little bit of time. First I'd like you to use the 983 command to get the signature of the remote. It will probably be 5 digits, presumably starting with 3612.

No, thank you for looking into it. I am very excited to start using RemoteMaster to properly utilize this remote.

When I tried to "download from remote" the rmaster.err log said it was looking for signature 3612, but the 983 blink back returns 36123.

I am using a JP1.2/JP1.3 cable, should that be able to interface properly with this remote if it's a JP1.4N? Does the fact that I was able to raw download from it at all mean it can?

FYI, here's the link to the remote on amazon where I purchased it: http://a.co/9TaQd3H (In the q&a section, the seller says that only INT-422-3s are available through this link)

Yes and yes.
