I think you may be confusing button names with function names. The two complete upgrades Eferz and I posted HERE and HERE most definitely show them as open/close and eject.

I have to ask again what upgrade you are using so it can be corrected. No Sony blu-ray player has any function called Live.

I did install one of those upgrades and it works for the most part. At first, I couldn't locate the Open/Close button, but I found it tied to the LIVE button, and after testing found it worked. This came from the Upgrade I installed that was posted earlier and I thank you for that. What I am trying to do now is fill in the other functions that seem to be lacking. I thought Open/Close was lacking but I was wrong. The correct labeling I am not sure about though. I probably don't know what I am looking at, but using RM IR, I download from my remote the upgrade I installed earlier. Then under Device Type VCR, with Protocol Sony20, I highlight and select Edit bringing up all the functions for that device. Clicking on the Function tab I see all the Name(d) functions. Scrolling down I find that the Function Name: LIVE performs an EFC 081 OBC 22. I found that OBC 22 was Open/Close. Testing showed it did indeed Open/Close.
The thing I am asking, under the Buttons Tab, there are two columns Button and Function. In there it says the Button LIVE performs the Function LIVE. Is there a way to simply change the name of the Function to what it actually performs, in this case Open/Close?

Hmm I just looked at the two upgrades I have for this Blu Ray and the one that I have loaded is different, I am not sure where I got it now. It works mostly, I will try the upgrades you linked directly and see if they are doing what I need, thanks for the patience.

Ahh, now it makes sense. You're working from a file with absolutely no function labels whatsoever, only button names and EFC/OBCs. When you download from your remote, you lose all of that information. You truly doing things the hard way when flying blind like that.

If you were to use the original files, RM would show all the correct function names. You never want to work with a download unless you really want to start from scratch as all the descriptive information is lost. No wonder you are having difficulty.

I can't find which upgrade you used that would have ended up with Open/Close assigned to LIVE.

Dunno what I did to be honest. I downloaded both of those upgrades again, and plugged both of them, one at a time, into RM IR to look at how they match up with my remote and Blu Ray. The BDP-BX37 looked almost perfect. I have a punch thru (think that's what its called) for my Volume to always go to my Amp, so I had to move the Subtitle and Audio to two other keys not mapped, I did that. The other file, SONY BDP-Sx70.txt didn't match very much at all. Thanks for the help guys, I guess I am my worst enemy!
