JP1 Remotes

Hello

I have downloaded and set up the remote binary files for SKY + customers who have a US Slinbox. The remote is great, and the skin very very nice.. you guys do an amazing job! The only problem i have is with the directional pad when navigating the TV Guide(or anything else for that matter). When i press any direction, i get 2 clicks of that direction, and it is abit annoying. All other buttons work great apart from these.

Has anybody found a solution? Thanks, Vinnie

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly!

This remote works aswell but still the double click on the directional pad This remote however is an exact copy of my original remote looks-wise, the other one isnt! Guess i'll just have to put up with it if theres nothing that can be done Having this remote at all makes the whole experience sooo much better regardless of the double click!!

Thanks, Vinnie

Have you tried using Sky as the manufacturer and Sky+HD as the model ? I complained to Sling that that selection didn't work properly and they fixed it. Might give a slightly different skin, but doesn't repeat for me.

Its a US Slingbox, it only shows Tata Sky, Tata Sky +, and Other in the model dropdown menu. Is there an update available to get more options there?
I think im using the latest version of slingplayer, or is there a UK version on their website?

Thanks for the help!

Sorry, I realised that as I was driving down the motorway. Otherwise you wouldn't have asked for help So ignore that suggestion.

I'm not sure what else to suggest. That remote was specifically built to remove any repeats. The only thought I have is that actually Slingplayer didn't find the BIN file and dropped back to using the built-in S1123 code.

To test that, remove the BIN file and do the setup again. Either you will get a 'not found' error or it will work and you will get the same remote you have now.

If you don't get an error message then make sure you have the PL file in the right folder and try again.

Ignore the US/UK designation on Slingplayer, they are identical.

I tried removing the BIN file and like you said got the error message that the remote code couldnt be found, so ive got it in the right place. Maybe its not compatible with my slingbox(SOLO) or my specific Sky box(Amstrad DRX890). What do you think?

Cheers

No it's compatible, otherwise nothing would work. It is odd as it was specifically built to correct the double-skip' problem I was having. There is one possibility, that I reverted my work file back to normal after Sling fixed mine.

Try this second attempt. https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... le_id=9017

Still the same result =( ..how do you revert the work file? or have you done it in that latest remote BIN file?

Alan, I looked at the protocol code in your bin file and it appears to be an exact match to the standard RC6-M-20n protocol, in which case the repeats would be the same.

I just created this version that (hopefully) will not repeat:

Many thanks Don't know what I would do without you

I think I must have overwritten my PROTOCOLS.INI during the attempted upgrades to RMIR/RM V2.00 and deleted the change. It's a dim memory but I thought we had simply changed :

Code.S3C80=47 93 61 8B 12 87 05 08 04 00 DE 00 00 00 00 00 \
CA D4 44 05 35 01 A8 0C 0A 18 07 02 11 10 08 10 \
07 10 09 10 C1 1E 10 08 10 07 0A EF 19 09 8D 01 \

46

(Byte 7 from 05 to 04 to clear the LSB)

??

That is the right change, but when I imported your binary file into RM that byte was still 05.

OK, I think Attempt 2 was correct then, as that was the change I made. We'll see I must take your advice and record the changes I make to PROTOCOLS.INI so I don't lose them

Nope, attempt 2 has "05".

Hello Robman.. I just loaded in attempt 3 into my slingplayer and it WORKS PERFECTLY!!! That made me happy =)

You 2 guys really are amazing.. thanks for all the help, i really appreciate it!
