so how do i make code 0618 work with tivos that have unique remote addresses assigned to them?
i'm searching the forums now to see if i find the answer. just thought i'll ask here since this is the closest i have come to my question so far.

In the PTV recorder setup guide (TiVo Series 1), if you set the remote to be "unit 0" it will control all Tivos, if you set the remote to be unit 1-9, only the matching TiVo will respond.

If you're using the built in 0618 code, this code is set to unit code 0. If you want to control a Tivo that uses a different unit code, you will need to load your own upgrade with the right unit code programmed. _________________ Rob

Thxs. I was afraid of that. Aren't these addresses just offsets of the original? I was hoping I could just add a number in the spreadsheet and have it work up the protocol for me based on the original.
Maybe in a future version. _________________ still learning......... |

Tivo uses a modified version of the standard NEC1 protocol, the modification is that they have replaced the first 4 bits of the command code complement with a 4-bit unit code. When you select one of the Tivo protocols in KM it will automatically select this modified protocol and will use whatever unit code you enter. So no, it's not exactly an offset.
