Slingbox and vu+ ultimo
Posted: Wed May 09, 2012 6:40 am
I tried the bin files provided in the file section, however they do not work:
1. Was there any error message after you typed in the Code and tapped the Power button ?
No, but the DVR changed eventually to channel 1.
However did does not happen when using slingbox power on/off later on.
2. Did you give the Power command plenty of time to react ? (I have a DVR that takes about 6-8 seconds to power up/down)
Yep, see 1
3. After completing the setup (regardless of whether the Power button worked) do any of the other buttons work ?
no.
4. Have you used a Digital Camera to confirm the IR Blaster is actually firing when you tap the Power button ? (Watch the tip of the IR Blaster thorugh the viewfinder while you tap a button. You should see a white (not red) flash)
Yes I see white flash.
5. Have you experimented with the placement of the IR Blaster ? On some devices this is critical so don't give up too quickly.
Yes
6. Are you sure the device is working correctly using the real remote ?
Yes it does.
Worth mentioning might be that I have a pli image on my vu+ ultimo box. However the ordinary remote just works as usual, just not the slingbox.
