| Thanks all and again, sorry for the delayed responses. I'm going to try vicky's out today. I see that there are now 4 bin files. 2 with 2000 and 2 with 2001. When I enter the custom code during setup, do I put Y2000 or Y2001? Am I only able to use 2 of them at a time? |

byrdley20, could you test the "0", skip+ and skip- buttons please. Those three buttons have the same code on them as the POWER button, so if the POWER button works, those 3 buttons should also send the POWER signal.

| Great news, all! Vicky's files did the trick! I used the Y2000 code and I can control power, channel up/down and number keys. I'm thrilled! Thanks everyone for your contributions. I really really appreciate it! |

ok great, we're getting somewhere now. I have made a new upgrade file based on the Y2000 file that Vicky created that should have more buttons assigned. Could you give this one a try too please. First, confirm that the buttons that worked on Vicky's file still work, then try the rest of the buttons too.

The reason for this is that we'd like to create an upgrade that supports as many buttons as possible, just in case the next user needs them.
This upgrade uses the simple RC5 protocol rather than the RC5/RC6 combo.

| I will try this out next time I make it over to my dad's. I'd have to manually insert a VHS and/or DVD to test out the other buttons. So next time I'm over there, I'll test it out and report back. |

Oh right, you're just using it as a cable TV tuner. Even if you're not able to test the other buttons, just confirming that the normal buttons still work would be nice. The reason being that I used the regular RC5 protocol for this upgrade, rather than the more complicated RC5/RC6 combo, as all the buttons that you need are RC5.
