Do you "recondition" your tips?

I've found that it works pretty well to put a tip in a drillpress and use a file to reshape it down to bare copper.

Then immediately tin them before the copper has a chance to pick up any surface oxidation.

You can do the same for chisel tips with a small belt ...

Is the radio shack unit upgradable by the oem or do you have another remote which is?

Assume that Rob may have already seen it or someone who can connect him directly has done so, but he should probably be notified of the "Internal Server Error" which supports his advertisements.

Will send this to him as a private message as well.

is a pretty good deal as these are the units I am using. Note that two additional ir emitters are shown in the image and those can be used with other ir extenders ...

I don't have a copy of of windows media edition but thanks for the heads up.

Sorry... should have included the following.

Toggling the Aspect Ratio on an Optoma Projector

For some unknown reason, Optoma elected to omit an "Aspect Ratio Toggle" button for the 719 which all other projectors I have worked with to date have on the remote.

It takes 11 commands to open the menu, navigate to the aspect ratio setting, toggle ...

my 2 cents...

Pick up some "paint pens" from a hardware, hobby shop or hardware store and use them.

The paints will not remain on the rubber/sillycone keytops, so, a better approach is the op's coloring location adjacent to the keys using the pens to generate a spot. A knife tip can be used to ...

In addition to robman's suggestion, one tool which has been valuable for me has been a windows media center (EHome) ir dongle coupled with the hid software from;

Power HEX 383C EFC 03065

That's the "standard" pioneer "power toggle"... see the prior response as I think that is your best path.

Try the built in pioneer codes ...then, if you need more than what they provide, load one of the two protocols posted above, we will have enough to help you continue ...

I would start using a current urc remote and trying the built in default commands for the different pioneers... if you buy an upgradable oneforall remote, their telephone tech support has been pretty good at getting the closest device or telephone upgrading the remote for a newer pioneer code ...

I'm pretty much a newbie here, so sure others will provide more info.

Device: Pioneer HTS-GS1
