 |

I can’t find to download the remote file for Craig cvd506. I want to use it with Slingbox pro HD. (now the slingbox is working with an Apex converter box, but Craig has more TV channels, I need the remote file)
Thank You! |

The code I selected was 2011
- in setup assistant from slingplayer I tried C2011 because the name of the file was C2011_PL.bin(in SBAV folder),
- 13 seconds to power on and off
-after the initial testing, the actual remote is working fast enough.
Thank you jimdunn! |

I'm glad it works 
While you were typing your reply I was editing my post above to add the part about uploading your working files back here for everyone to share.
Because I think we were posting at the same time, you may not have seen that part.
If you do get a chance to do that, I'm sure anyone else with these devices would be very grateful. |

Funnily enough - the power key was the only key that was difficult to learn from the Harmony - which I think may mean it was saved in the Harmony download as a "learn" itself - maybe with the key held in while it was being learned. After half a dozen attempts, I managed to learn it as OBC 20. The Harmony lets you learn signals and assign them to keys, so maybe that's what was done here, and why this key was a pig to learn, and all the others were easy. This key was certainly saved as an "additional" key, which may indicate something "different" was done to create it. (that's just guesswork on my part, though...)
It certainly doesn't seem impossible to me that Power works better with a "long" press - that would even seem sensible, so that the device could avoid accidental reaction to the signal...
I guess you could try changing the protocol from NEC1 to NEC2 - see if that has any effect - doing that just changes how the keys "repeat" - but I don't have enough knowledge of how the Slingbox uses the upgrades and decides on repeat/duration to send signals from its blaster to know if that would help/hinder or do nothing.

After the original setup now it is taking just 3 seconds to power on and 2 to power off; therefore, it is no need to change from NEC1. |
