I have tried TVPad 2 M233 remote code on TVPad 4
( https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=12111 )

It works good except the button being press twice when I press
eg. when I press the right button in Sling remote, TVPad 2 will recognize 1 press to right
but TVPad 4 will recognize 2 presses to right

Besides, I also have a Logitech Harmony and TVPad 4 M418 is supported

Hope that someone can help me to create a PL bin file for TVPAD 4 M418

Thanks alot.

RE: For other users using this file
The "exit" button is mapped to "Last Channel"

If you can change the "Last Channel" mapping back to "Exit" that would be awesome!! :lol:

OK, I am not sure what to do here. As far as I am aware the Exit button is mapped to Exit and the Last_Channel is mapped to Last_Channel, all as defined on the Logitech Harmony database.

So what am I supposed to do ? Swap them over ?

I thought he saying that the code that you assigned to the LAST CH button is actually the "Exit" function, but now that I look at your RM file, I see that you haven't programmed anything to the LAST CH button, so it must be the other way around, he must be saying that the code that you programmed to the EXIT button is actually the "Last Ch" function.

Given that LAST CH is often labeled as "Back" on remotes, you could see how the Harmony folks could have got it mixed up.

Hi Rob.. Not sure which RM file you are looking at as I haven't actually uploaded it yet. I just checked by importing the BIN file and it definitely has both buttons mapped.

Oh, I just did a search for TVPad and thought those were the files.
