Finding more features of this remote not sure how to add to RDF
so far i have added [SpecialProtocols]
DSM=Internal:0
I also found out that this remote supports MultiMacro on practically every key
problem i have is if i use the [MultiMacros] list in the RDF i would have to list every key
if i use macrosupport=3 i also get Real time macro as an option
I tried this and just put dummy data for RealTimeMacroData so RMIR would not error out
Maybe this remote supports Real time macro too but i have no idea where the data would be. If it doesn't support RTM then how write RDF for Multimacro
Here is my test RDF

Charter/Spectrum URC-1060 newer or older version RMIR no RDF

Forgot to mention
I added "ondemand " $34 to [ButtonMaps] 1,2,and 3
as long as cable device is not set to setup code 1877 the button is unlocked from the cable device and i have put multimacros on it for other devices and as far as i can tell it actuallly is in the maps and not a keymove

Is there any problem caused by the dummy data? I can't think of a better way without needing to modify RMIR, and it doesn't seem worth the effort to do so if dummy data works.

No it does not give any functional problems and I agree it's not worth wring into RMIR
The only draw back is that a person will see Real time Macro displayed when they make a macro but of course they do not work
If i make a real time macro they just disappear upon upload

The original remote in this thread is the 367803 (Charter OCAP 4-Device).
Randy is talking about the 202608 (Charter OCAP C4000 URC-1060BC2).
So, these are different remotes.
Here are some threads on the 202608 remote.
1. This is where we figured out how to add protocol upgrades:

2. This is the patch to fix keymoves and macros:

It is the same as my C4000 outwardly. Are there two different internal configurations?

Yes they are two different internal configurations
Sorry for the confusion i should have started a new thread
Yes Larry i am using your version of the remote
I did not plan on working on it this much due to time limits but
now that i have i found other features to the remote
So i was only looking at what is the best solution to how to add to the RDF
without affecting RMIR
I will tell results shortly

Changes to exiting RDF
1 added special protocol dsm=0
2 added $34 to maps 1,2,3
3 added a MultiMacro list
May need refining but works
Experts needed to decide if it should replace original

My son has one of the two. Is there a surefire way to tell them apart?
Mine is stamped "Spectrum," where his is stamped "Charter."

There are probably clues on the remote somewhere, but the one sure fire way to differentiate them is to do a download. If the name of the remote that gets displayed isn't convincing, go to the Raw Data tab where the signature is displayed.

Thanks.
My sticker is not so clear. I am guessing that when I upload his contents, RMIR will decide which one it is.

Don't upload random files into remotes, always start with a download first, that will tell you what remote it is. If your saved rmir file is from a different remote (even if they look the same on the outside), you can't upload it into this remote.

Thanks. (That is what I meant.)
In that exchange, I get confused about
- which is the upload [from my computer?] and
- which is the download [to my computer?].

You download from the remote into the computer, then upload from the computer into the remote.
