JP1 Remotes

The RDF appears to work fine. I was able to set VPT to the TV, which made my mom happy. There were a bunch of device upgrades present and one macro for VOD. Anything you want me to check or play with?

Thanks. I won't have a chance to try it out until this coming Tuesday. But I'll report back on how it works.

Here is the IR file.

What sort of cable did you use to download the memory?

Are you interested in doing some work to help build an RDF for it?

I used a Tommy Tyler JP1.2/3 USB cable.

As for the RDF, I can help out if it seems like a worthwhile effort. I did some searching on the forum and some Googling and there ...

I just updated the remote with the fast macro protocol. Works great. Thanks!

This is my mom's remote from her cable company. It looks just like the Atlas 4 picture in RM and the physical key layout is the same. I've searched and looked through the released RDFs and the RDFs in development and can't find anything. Needless to say, the Atlas 4 RDF doesn't work.

IR reports a ...

Can you explain a little further? It works with all macros. If it's not working for you, then you've made a mistake somewhere along the line. HERE's how you should have loaded it.
Gee, you all are going to wonder how I find my rear with both hands. I read this thread several weeks ago, did a ...

The macro speed up protocol is remote specific. Someone would have to write this specifically for the RCRP05B. That would probably be Binky or uncleMiltie.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but from my understanding the protocol given in this thread was written for the RCRP05B. The original poster ...

How do I get this macro speed up protocol to work with my RCRP05B? I do know how to enter it into IR using the protocols tab, I'm asking if I need to do anything else such as editing my devices so I can use it? I'm really missing the fast macros I have on my extended 8910.

I converted IRHELP.hlp to IRHELP.PDF, see if you can read chapter 4 in this mode.

I'll look forward to reading your wiki when its up.

Thanks for converting the file.

As for the wiki, I'll help move material to it, update it ...

Well, somewhere near the top of this thread, you described a situation in which you were setting up LKPs using hex commands, indicating that you had the wrong RDFs selected for the extended IR image, and were not getting the Special Protocols Functions tab activated in IR.

I'm not sure how you ...

I've held off on commenting since (a) others are doing just fine, and (2) since it might seem self-promoting, but did you read this extender FAQ ?
I would think that it could answer a lot of your questions (except for a detailed description of what the various special protocols can do.) Perhaps it ...

There is a big difference between didn't help to not being able to open it.

Well last year I posted the source for the help file. The source is in RTF files. There is some weird markup language that we have to use to get the links in help to work, but you should be able to read around that to get ...

This came up last year and we talked about moving this to another format. I can see that this is going to become more and more of a problem. Hmm.
Yes, as more people migrate away from XP, it will become a problem.

I think the reason I can't open it now is because of some security settings ...

Stangbat, you had said that
irhelp.hlp didn't help you much with these. Did you read chapter 4, about extenders and the special protocols tab?

If you want to create updates for those topics, I'll roll them into the hlp file.

Okay, another case of me not quite understanding what was being ...
