I have differently programmed remotes where some of the devices are the same. So there are multiple IR file which represent the way I want to deal with a particular device.

When I make a change, it is a pain to change all the IR files which refer to that device. Is there a way to export just the stuff fro one device and import it into another IR file?

Thanks -- Vincent

Assuming I understood your question, yes you can, so long as each IR file is for the same brand remote. Otherwise, I think, you'll break the button assignments. Also built-in vs not-built-in protocols need care.

On both Device and Protocols tab use the edit button to copy to clipboard one upgrade and/or protocol then paste into the second session of IR. You'll need to fill in type and setup code by hand on the devices tab, and protocol id on the protocols tab.

What about keymoves? You can copy all keymoves from IR through ECC. There you can select what you need and copy and paste back into the other IR. Macros can also be handled via ECC but you'll need a temp sheet before transfer to the keymoves worksheet, so it might not be worth the effort.

If you have Special protocols keymoves, you'll need to copy them using the old format of button numbers, not button names. For that, remove or comment out the relevant special protocols sections in RDF, at which point all the SPs will end up in the keymove bucket for the move.

Isn't it simpler to just edit the upgrades from one remote to another in RM or KM? or am I missing the whole point?

All nine or my remotes are URC 8811s.

Yes, but as you point out below, all this stuff came from RM and might as well come from there again.

This is what I want and don't understand. What is ECC?

Extender Code Calculator. I just went thru files and can't find it as ECC. Since I knew we discussed it in the Software section several times, there it was - a sticky. Read the readme file, don't skip the tail end. Remember it was built loong ago when IR did not have the nice special protocols interface.

The Extender Code Calc readme. Although Liz mentions it in her post, she appears to have fallen into some stream-of-consciousness typing, and ended up sounding a bit confusing... Wink

Really, where did I goof?
I remembered that I uploaded the file into Diagnosis or someplace last summer. it moved. I think. It started in your thread http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=779
