very simple question i need your help please

Post by ramymounir »

my request is very simple. i have slingbox pro connected to drembox 500.
i want to control the dreambox but the remote control codes offered doesnt work on the dreambox. i need the code or the file which i need to put on the sling player to be able to control the dreambox. If you please dont give me complicated details as i dont intend to be expert in this filed . i dont want details about remote master and bin files and this stuff. can you give me some very basic steps to get this done simply?

i tried to get this remote master and got some .ir files and i dont know what do to with and to be honest i dont wish to know.

my sling box pro number is : A2061105935

Thank you for your time and concern :D

I'm sorry, but we can't help you. If the codes provided with your Slingbox don't work your device, you're ONLY option is to add them yourself, which involves using Remote Master, etc.

I would recommend that you try to convince Sling Media to add the codes that you need, otherwise you'll need to see if you can return your Slingbox.

There are some ready made BIN files https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... &cat_id=87 that work with the Dreambox so you can try those out.
