I suppose this is more of a Sling question than a JP1 question but anyway...

As already mentioned I'm using the C1281_RV.bin file with Slingplayer 1.5 to control SlingCatcher. If I ensure that SlingCatcher.spr is in the Slingplayer Remote directory then the SlingCatcher virtual remote is available ...

Still around...
...video quality would be degraded at location 3
I understand, but this will not being used for continuous viewing. The downstream, into the SlingCatcher at location 2, is the main viewing stream. Use of the local Slingbox at location 2, and the resulting upstream to location 3 ...

Rob
Thanks for everything. I'd still like to do it "properly" but thought I'd let you know the progress so far...

The installation of Slingplayer version 2 came up with SlingCatcher.spr as a remote file. I made a copy of this, uninstalled V2, re-installed 1.5, copied SlingCatcher.spr to the Remote ...

Rob, Nuke12
SlingCatcher is NOT in Slingplayer, at least not in my version which is 1.5.0.322 and which update says is the latest. (If it was I wouldn't have been here in the first place!)

Edit: Although Update says I've the latest build I found there is a version 1.5.1.355 which I've now got - but ...

OK. I got some codes to work (I haven't tried them all). I used RM to create a .bin file (did I need to?) for the RV chip. (UK)

I'll now need a new virtual remote for Slingplayer because there are some special buttons. A job for tommorrow (UK time)

Thanks again.

It's a set top box that takes in SlingStream over the internet from a Slingbox and presents it as AV, direct to a TV. It has it's own physical remote so the whole package is designed to behave like a TV set top box.

I guess it's "SlingPlayer in a box" with a remote control as opposed to SlingPlayer ...

That is strange one
OK, before anyone asks.......

Location 1: Slingbox1 taking AV from satellite receiver slinging to.......

Location 2: ....SlingCatcher (output to TV) and Slingbox2 taking AV from SlingCatcher slinging to.......

Location 3 : ... PC / Slingplayer

You'd think it would be easy!

IR codes for SlingCatcher

This might appear to be an unusual request but I'd like to be able to IR control my SlingCatcher with a Slingbox.
