I have an SK-7100 Airboard (Old) connected to an HTPC running Meedio. I have used the Airboard_Combination_KM.txt file based upon the 7551 keyboard as a template to create a file that can be uploaded from the KM spreadsheet into my URC-8910 remote control. Everything works very well with the exception of certain keys which do not repeat. I have defined the volume keys, arrow keys, and pgup/pgdn to repeat as described in the spreadsheet by placing a '1' in the byte two column. I have read and re-read every thread related to these keyboards and I am pretty much stumped at this point. I am thinking that maybe the protocols do not match up between the two keyboards. I have posted my .ir file and the text file for the KM spreadsheet in the diagnosis section. The files both start with JS2045 - XXXXX. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.

The trouble with keyboards is that they usually send a complicated 3-part signal, which consists of a DOWN, HOLD and UP portion. The person who was the resisdent expert on keyboard signals is no longer with us and I don't know if anyone else has looked into this enough to be able to help (I know I haven't).

Repeating Keys for the Airboard SK-7100
I was thinking that myself. I did not have the pleasure of working with Jon Armstrong but from what I read about him he certainly seemed like a great guy. The lack of repeating keys is not a show-stopper for me. It's a nice to have... I use the volume punch through to the TV anyway. I think the work around could be using a PVR profile on my remote and then routing its output through IRMan and Girder and then on into Meedio. Using JP1 tools has worked out great for me otherwise. I have been able to control things like my Yamaha DSP-A3090 (non-mainstream) which I have never been able to do with any remote till now. Thanks for all the help//Jeff
