Hi,
Please advice me which codes to use with VU+ SOLO and Slingbox 350.
I have tried the Vu+ Duo and Vu+ Ultimo from the file section, but they does not work.

Thanks for the files.
But when using the channel up/down keys the VU+ show the bouquet list, not change the channel.

OK, I've checked the database and it definately shows the CH+/- codes are correct, so your box must be a slightly different version. We could try and figure it out by trial and error (unless you own/know someone with a Harmony Universal Remote) which would take some time.
Up to you

Sorry but I don´t know anyone that has an harmony remote Control.
But I´m can buy one if that helps you.
I live in Sweden and Logitech has the below page:
http://www.logitech.com/sv-se/harmony-remotes
Please advice me which model to buy.
I can also try some files from you first, if this isn´t a lot of jobs for you.

Unless you actually want one for proper use I would go on E-Bay and get an old one. I use a 659, which is very cheap.
But we can always try one attempt at trial and error if you want (it could take 6 attempts)

We can try the trial and error first. And if it does not work I can buy one remote controller.

OK. The story so far is that we shown that the basic signal pattern is correct, all that is wrong is the code sent by the Channel buttons. Now there are only 255 possible button codes, of which we have used about 30. So all we need to do is try the other 225
https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=12513 has a new BIN file to install. The ONLY button that sends a correct code is the Power button so you can check the installation. All the other buttons send a previously unused code. This takes us from 0-70. (Hence why it can take 6 goes)
So install the BIN file and the tap EVERY button, including the 15 Custom buttons you get by right-clicking on the remote image and selecting Custom.
Tell me if any of them operate Ch+/- or any other function.

I have now tested the BIN file.
No keys activate the CH+/-
The CUSTOM14 changes to CH5.

Pity, I hoped it would be easy. I've updated
https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=12513 so it has the rest of the 255 codes mapped in the same way. (With C2015 you need only check the number buttons)
Any joy ?

Here are the results,
C2012, Custom 20 => Help Menu
C2014, Ch- => INFO
C2014, Custom15 => Bouquet
C2014, Custom27 => Radio Stations
Nothing on 2013 and 2015

No more ideas I'm afraid. As far as I can see we have tested every possible code.

Thanks for Your help. Maybe I can replace the VU+. I also have a Dreambox DM800SE. I hope there are codes for Dreambox.
