Broken 15-2116ex2 Build

Post by benjamintm »

I recently decided to rebuild my 15-2116ex2 remote as I'd run out of upgrade space. I added each component to the remote and everything seems to work, but I've noticed that a couple of buttons now cause the remote to reset. An example of this is VCR-->Info. This was working correctly before I rebuilt (and added a different receiver). I've uploaded the upgrade to:

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben.

The VCR Info button and the VCR Audio Button are both accessing setup code VCR/1272. The problem is there is no VCR/1272 code built in and there is no VCR/1272 in the upgrade area. So when the remote tries to process that keypress, it encounters an error because the setup code doesn't exist. So the remote is reset.
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.

That was it. Thanks for the help. Now if I can just get my receiver to do the HDCP handshake correctly, I can get sound working without having to power cycling my receiver.
