I will take a look this evening.

Have you run it through Vicki's checker tool?

I think we'll need Greg's expertise here. I can see a few buttons that are duplicates. I simplified all the names, and checked all the digits to make sure there were no O for zeros. I can't see anything out of the ordinary on this/


I did find it interesting that this S380 type processor had a signature that started with a 1.

EDIT:

I just realized I goofed. I had tried making a few name changes to the buttons, where the syntax looked a bit "off", but I was saving the RDF to mi IR-RDF folder, not my Remotemaster-RDF folder. Now that xnappo has made a bunch of fixes to the RDF's I probably should consolidate these to one folder.

It appears that the "16:9" button is the culprit . Most of the other RDFs use "16-9" or "16/9" for this button. It appears that the colon is more important than the " mark when Remotemaster does the parse.
Remember to provide feedback to let us know how the problem was solved and share your upgrades.

Tip: When creating an upgrade, always include ALL functions from the oem remote, even if you never plan on assigning them to a button. Complete function lists makes an upgrade more helpful to others.

The colon is used to delimit the standard button name from the actual button name, so in the case of 16:9, RM would create a"9" button and assign a standard name of "16" to it. This would probably conflict with the numeric 9 button definition elsewere in the RDF. In theory, "16:9" should be legal, but as you say, maybe the colon has precedence in this case.

As a general rule, I usually use quotes on any button name that contains non-alphanumeric characters. It does no harm to quote the button name, even if it is not required. About the only limitations I can think of are that a) multi-macro buttons cannot used quoted actual button names, and b) I don't think our tools properly handle embedded quotes within a quoted name.

Yes you can. I've uploaded a file with the Red, Green, Yellow, Blue and White buttons allocated function codes 001 to 005.

I've updated the RDF and MAP to handle the 16:9 button and to add the keymove section.
