Updating RDFs

[ElizabethD]

I have added the Multiplex to all RDF's, Pause protocol to remotes that we have a pause for, added UDSM and ULDKP for standalone SP's for remotes we have them for, I sorted the entries in the [SpecialProtocols] section. (May sound like a nit but it is much nicer when they appear in order in the IR SP tab).

Nils,

1. Re: using the [SpecialProtocols] entries: If that's what you base RDF on, then I need to pitch in. C7+, 7800/6??? RDF should NOT have ULDKP because it's a nonstandard setup IR will not understand. UDSM is ok so long as it comes from the spreadsheet. Info is burried in the Readme - perhaps RDF should also have a note to NOT add it in (unless I or somebody find a way to make it standard)
If you need to confirm (I don't have the stuff in front of me) also see this:

2. Re: Custom mode name - what d'ya mean only 2 remotes there's tons of them 8910, 9910, htpro, 2116, some RCU
Seriously now, Hal in ECC called it ModeName if I recall. Is that important?

3. Unimportant: 8910 RDF on Com/Skip key says something about shift-left. Remote doesn't care, I don't care, RM works fine (or doesn't since you can't use it unextended anyway), but I was just curious what is shifting.

Item1: I had already removed the ULDKP based on the other thread.

Item2: Two remotes was a generic term since what I really meant was it was just two RDF groups that support them. I did not think that the RCU810 has a CustomModeName protocol so it is just the 8910(old and new)/9910(old and new)/HTPro/2116/2117's that have it. I like ModeName so that is what it will be.

Item3: "Shift-Left" was just a generic name for mapping the button to it's equivalent on other remotes. Looking at it, it makes no sense to me so I removed it just for you. By the way, the name left of the colon in the button name is the generic name and the name on the right is the real button name. RM displays the real name but uses the generic name if it does not find a match for the real name when you change remotes.

Shift-left is there because that's what KM does. If you go into KM, set the remote to the 8910, then unhide the Buttons2 sheet, you'll see that the Generic name for the button with Actual name comm/skip is shift-left.

This is one of the things that makes it possible for RM to import KM upgrades successfully.

OK I will put it back
