RemoteMaster won't export binary upgrade file for slingbox

aeweber · Post by **aeweber** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 5:20 pm

I am trying to use RemoteMaster to export the binary upgrade file for the motorola BMC9012 PVR box. I need the binary upgrade file for use with a slingbox. I am using the BMC9012 file I found here

Can anyone explain why I can't save the binary upgrade file?

Did you select the Slingbox in RM's Remote drop-down after opening the upgrade?

You might need to download the Slingbox RDF's first.

Yes, I have already selected slingbox rdf file

I just tried with RM v1.41, and it worked fine.

Make sure you've got the SlingBox RDFs (unzipped) in the same folder as all the other RDFs.
Use File -> Open to load the desired upgrade file.
Select the appropriate SlingBox in the "Remote:" drop-down list.
Use Advanced -> Export Binary Upgrade... to create the binary upgrade file.

.

I've done all of these things and when I do the Advanced -> export binary upgrade... It doesn't write the file to a directory.

could it be that there is nothing in the "Upgrade Protocol Code "Required"" box? If so how and what do I enter in to that box?

Is there anyone out there that could export this binary upgrade file and email it to me?

Ah, I see you've got a PL Slingbox. I tried it with a JU Slingbox. You've found a bug. Fix coming shortly....

RM v1.42 fixes this problem.

I tried this 1187 code twoce in my slingbox and it gave me an error message both times. I had to restart it both times. Also when I try importing binary upgrade in the RM v1.42 it won't import.

Try it again. I've replaced it with an updated one.
V1187_PL.bin
