Hi Mark... thanks for the reply...

Yes, I've seen the standard 9960 listed, but somehow thought that it wasn't the correct selection, since I keep reading that B0 and B01 are completely different beasts...

Moreover, I still didn't come to the point of actually doing the upgrade... I was in the process of getting all the tools ready and getting acquainted with the process of upgrading...

Being a total novice exposes me to some failures, you know, and I feel that I should rule-out the guessing from the process before actually doing something on the remote...

A software error is not what makes a beginner happy :-)

But I'm sure a solution is just behind the corner...

Thanks again...

Joe

There are differences between the 2 but it looks like KM can be used to build upgrades for either version. The only problem I see is that the B01 uses a different set of offsets for the Device Combiner protocol (which I don't think you'll be using just yet). You've got nothing to lose by trying! ;)

This should all be corrected in RM v1.59

1.59 doesn't fix "terminated incorrectly"

Just tried it, when I try to paste the upgrade (with keymoves in it) I still get the message that the Macro/Key Move is not terminated correctly.

I also still can't seem to make the upgrade without keymoves work in my 6960's.

RM v1.59 fixes the scrambling issue. It doesn't (and can't) fix any issues in IR.

Hi all!

Greg, thanks a lot for looking into this and fixing RM...
The keys don't get scrambled anymore :-)

Now let's hope that also IR gets its cure from Mark... and we should be fine with the 9960B01 support...

...well there is still to wait for the Extender from Nils ;-)

WOW!!! What a group!!! :-)

Thanks a lot everybody, very nice work indeed!!!

Argh!

Greg, I hate to tell you, but the pop-up windows that informs you of missing functions when switching from a remote to a different one, is larger than my screen!

I believe this happens because there is no line-feed in the info text that appears just below the window's titlebar...

Not that this is urgent at all, but I think you have to know about it...

Ciao!
