IO Data HVTR-BCTX3 codes for slingbox

I have an IO Data HVTR-BCTX3 DVR device and want to use it with my slingbox 500. I think I was able to get the remote codes captured on a Nevo c2 remote and imported them into RMIR, but can't figure out how to export it as a binary for use with a slingbox. I was following the directions here:
http://www.hifi-remote.com/wiki/index.p ... r_Slingbox
I have the RMDU file that I pulled from the remote, but I don't see a way to add it to this post.
Looking for suggestions on how I can get this to work. Happy to send the RMDU file I have and for the final slingbox file to get added to the repository with the others.

You can change remote type from nevo c2 to slingbox pl chip from the dropdown list and select export to binary from the advanced menu in remotemaster. You can upload file to this forum by going to file section and selecting uploading file.

I thought that as well, but the only thing in the drop down for me is "nevo c2" I'd thought I'd pulled the version of RMIR that was supposed to have all the needed templates and such, but it doesn't seem to have the options I'd think. Should I maybe adjust the device type form "cable" to something else to enable the choice of slingbox for remote?

If you have a full install of RM with all of the RDFs, you can select the Slingbox as the remote.

I do see a likely rdf in the rdf directory; SLINGBOX (Slingbox - fake RDF)[1].rdf
but not sure if there is some step I missed that might prevent the program from recognizing it.

Can you post your rmir file or rmdu file to diagnosis area?

If you captured learned signals, the next step is to create a brand new RMDU file using the info in the learned signals. That means, selecting the right protocol, entering the right device codes, and then entering all the button info along with their codes. Did you do all that?
If you're only seeing the Nevo in the drop down, I suspect that you're starting with an RMIR file and you are trying to edit a device upgrade for that remote. You need to have a stand-alone RMDU file that you have opened using RM (not RMIR) in order to convert it to be a Slingbox file.
