JP1 Remotes

There is at least one remote available for the iPod (Ten Technology's
naviPod Wireless Remote for iPod w/Dock Connector).

Does anyone know if it uses standard-type IR protocols? I'd get one if I knew I could create a JP1 file. If it uses some non-standard protocol (it only has 5 functions) then I wouldn't be interested.

Anyone know?

Even if the protocol is non standard, we could probably put one together for you quite easily.

OK Rob, I'll probably be a guinea pig here. If I can learn the codes, I'll post the upgrade.

I've created an upgrade for the Navipod iPod remote. Besides the five basic functions (Play, FF, RW, Vol+, Vol-), I've also implemented the following "hidden" iPod functions found in the Mega List at www.mastertheaterbuilders.com. I've mapped the extra features to keys as follows:

Next Chapter - Up Arrow
Previous Chapter - Down Arrow
Next Playlist - Right Arrow
Previous Playlist - Left Arrow
Pause - Pause (Discrete)
Play/Resume - Enter (Discrete)
OFF - Power
On - Record
Repeat - Last (Toggles repeat mode)
Shuffle - Swap (Toggles shuffle mode)
Stop - Stop (Discrete)
Mute - Mute

All of these functions work on the series 4 iPods. Only the five basic commands work on a series 3 iPod, even after upgrading the iPod to the latest SW (v2.3). I'm using a 15-2117 with the RF link to control the iPod from other rooms and it's working well. (I've modified this paragraph to correct some errors in my original post)
