Your macros show that the button codes are correct in the RDF. If the buttons end up reversed when you create upgrades, that implies that the [ButtonMaps] section is wrong.
Change this...
[ButtonMaps]
0 = ($31, $27, $28, $2A, $29, $2B, $2C, $2E, $2D, $2F), ($20, $1D, $21), ($22, $1F),
to this (for each buttonmap)..
[ButtonMaps]
0 = ($31, $27, $28, $2A, $29, $2B, $2C, $2E, $2D, $2F), ($1D, $20, $21), ($1F, $22),

Yes, these entries I already had in my modified RDF during my last test (programming and testing macros through RMIR using my modified RDF) after discussion with mdavej and 3FG. The result looks good to me.
This solution was also my own intention before opening the thread but I did not have the experience how to validate this approach.
In the meantime I also programmed my devices RMDU files.
Remote control works like a charm...
Feel free to ask me for some additional tests.

Please load your updated RDF to the following folder, then post a link to it here, so that 3FG can consider updating the official RDF with it.

URC-1280 Contour 8 - RDF file revision and tests
URC-1280 Contour 8 - RDF file revision and tests
I already put some issues that I found during programming and testing of my URC-1280.
Today I found some additional errors in the URC-1280's RDF file (numeric buttons). Because of this I deleted my formerly revised RDF file from files section and started this new tread with a new title and a new link to v2 of my RDF file at the end.
Summing up:
The URC-1280 RDF file delivered with the RemoteMaster v2.07 build 2 is not correct!
1)
(copied from the thread mentioned above)
I read out the URC-1280 button codes by programming macros using 995 code to verify the [Buttons] sections in the RDF file.
Here are the results (I extracted the relevant sections from downloaded data and added some comments):
[Macro]
# Rewind;Play;FastFwd;Stop;Pause;Record;Guide;Menu;Info;Left;Right;Up;OK;Down
Data=0D 0E 0F 10 11 12 13 14 15 17 19 16 18 1A
SegmentFlags=255
KeyCode=35 -> = $23 (Red Button)
DeviceIndex=0
[Macro]
# AV;Exit;Vol+;Back;Ch+;Vol-;Mute;Ch-
Data=1B 1C 1D 1E 1F 20 21 22
SegmentFlags=255
KeyCode=36 -> = $24 (Green Button)
DeviceIndex=0
[Macro]
# 1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;Text;0;TextOff
Data=27 28 29 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 2F 30 31 32
SegmentFlags=255
KeyCode=37 -> = $25 (Yellow Button)
DeviceIndex=0
[Macro]
# Red;Green;Yellow;Blue
Data=23 24 25 26
SegmentFlags=255
KeyCode=24 -> = $18 (OK Button)
DeviceIndex=0
2)
The original [ButtonMaps] section contains lines like these (starting with 0,1,2 or 3):
0 = ($31, $27, $28, $2A, $29, $2B, $2C, $2E, $2D, $2F), ($20, $1D, $21), ($22, $1F),
They have to be replaced with:
0 = ($31, $27, $28, $29, $2A, $2B, $2C, $2D, $2E, $2F), ($1D, $20, $21), ($1F, $22),
After this change the Numeric, Volume and Channel buttons are working correctly with my devices.
I don't know if there are other errors in the original 1280 RDF. Any hints how to debug and test are welcome.
The revised version 2 of my RDF file is available at http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=25504

@3FG: I hope the consolidated data in the new threat is sufficient to update the RDF file in distribution with a new my one. If not, feel free to ask for additional input/tests.

I think I found another issue with the original 1280s RDF delivered with RemoteMaster v2.07 build 2. I was not able assign functioning codes to the "shifted" Menu and Info buttons. Checking the original RDF I found that [ButtonMaps] section of the RDF file contains the button codes in shifted state. "Menu" ($14) is listed as ($94) and "Info" ($15) is listed as ($95). So, I created a version 3 of my RDF available at http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=25504
To validate my revised v3 of the 1280 RDF file I created macros with RMIR for the affected buttons. I was able to verify my RDF revision with my Sony TV and also using IRScope with my IRWidget that I home-brewed some weeks ago to let me eliminate my old parallel port based "CaptureIR" hardware.
I bound Red to Menu and Green to Info and the remote generates the expected codes. Here is the RMIR data I downloaded from remote:
# Macro Test with my revised v3 of the 1280 RDF file
[Macro]
Data=14
SegmentFlags=255
KeyCode=35 # $23 (= Red Button)
DeviceIndex=0
[Macro]
Data=15
SegmentFlags=255
KeyCode=36 # $24 (Green Button)
DeviceIndex=0
@3FG: I hope this sufficient to commit a new version to SourceForge

@urcfan02 - thanks for this. I used your RDF as the one with the latest download (RM2.08b7) still seems to have the volume keys reversed. I haven't had this remote long, but I've loaded up a few of my standard upgrades and things seem functional.
I think I must have misread along the way, but I thought this remote, and JP1.4 in general supported special functions without the need for an extender. Have you been able to get DSM, or DKP/LKP to work?
Thanks!

The 1280 RDF in RM2.08b7 package is still the same file as in RM2.07b2 that I used. I'm happy to hear that my work on this RDF helps other users, too.
I did not try to get DSM or DKP/LKP to work (never used this). I assume it will not work. I only tried to simply assign macros to a device button (in the context of another thread here) and found that it also doesn't work.
