Layout for 8910 grayed out in RM v1.36?

I'm running RM v1.36 on an OSX 10.3 powerbook g4. I'm playing around with converting my 8811 upgrades to the 8910.
I launched RM. Pointed it to the rdf dir (1.18b). I can see the layout for the 8811 and various others that I tried. The 8910, however, is grayed out. I noticed a error message the first time I tried to select the 8910 (the same happens for the 9910) that the 8910 map file is missing.

Is this a known issue?

Best,

Looking in the Maps zip, I see the following 4 members...

URC-9910.jpg
URC-9910New.jpg
URC-9910New.map
URC-9910Old.map

I suspect that if you rename URC-9910Old.map to URC-9910.map it might take care of it.

Alternatively, you could try changing the following entry in the RDF:

ImageMap=URC-9910.map

to

ImageMap=URC-9910Old.map

or

ImageMap=URC-9910New.map

Hopefully either Greg or Nils will jump in with the definitive solution.

Thanks Rob,
I editted the rdf (working with the 9910) to read:
ImageMap=URC-9910Old.map

This works and shows the old style remote.

I'm not seeing the Maps zip in any of the RM directory tree. Where is that exactly?

Best,
jeff

They should be in the Images folder.

RM needs matching versions of the RDFs and Images and Maps. RM v1.36 has version 1.24 of the Images and Maps included. Upgrading your RDFs to the version 1.24 should resolve this.

The latest versions are both located in the Tools section, in the Main folder.
The current files are:
RDFs for IR and RM Version 1.24.zip
RM Maps-and-Images 1.24.zip

BTW, Rob, making this post reminded me of one of the things that bothers me about the File Section here. The displayed file name can be different from the actual file name. It certainly is for the files I linked above. That's pretty confusing, especially to newbies.

It's up to the person posting the file to determine what the best display name for the file is.
