The answer was burried in the AVS Forum, FlipFlop has written a thread with 400+ replies, after page 9 - burried in one of the comments was...."use a UNIX text editor, don't use Notepad or WordPad." I had to experient with the saving of the file format, but the one that worked was saving the file as ...

Problem Solved

After many days of reading....the answer is:

Don't use Notepad or WordPad.

I switched to TextPad and saved the shellcmds to a PC, ANSI file format and BAM!

It worked.

:roll: Can any help with my shellcmds error - I am banging my head against my computer and replaytv trying to get my replays to take the new ir codes.

Firstly, I have been using WiRNS and DVArchive for quite some time and have DVArchive 3.1 and WiRNS 2.0
I have 3 replay units (2x4504 & 1x4160) all ...

Thanks Robman...will do.

Can anyone help. I created these RID files located: http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload.php?action=file&file_id=7988

1) I had to replace my hard drive and I did a factory reset to the software.
2) I created the "install" folder in the Photos folder
3) Loaded my RID files and ircodes and ...

I used the OBCs .. and works fine. So sorry for the late post.

I'll report back to you once I upload both file

Now, I'm going to figure out/search how to download from my URC-10820N remote and create a RMDU file, so I can create a RID file.

Thanks Again.

But if I only need to use OBCs or EFCs, then when I use EFC without the OBC, I got a different value than you did.

Just from a learning perspective, which should I use to get the correct codes?

By using my EFCs, the repeated bits came out to: 10=000100=*

Your file came out to: 01 ...

OK.. I think I figured it out... I also need to copy from the RemoteMaster OBC numbers over to the RIDGen OBC column as well. Once I did that, I was able to replicate your file.

Fun stuff

THANK YOU!!

Yes, I was using the SV 360 rmdu file that was posted.

Question - As I try to replicate your approach, I did button #2 and come up with a different value that what your file shows.

Protocol: RC5
Device: 15
Button #2 EFC: 175

Repeated bits came out to: 10=000100=*

Your file come out ...

I've being following the steps (posted here: http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=67534#67534) to convert a SonicView 360 RMDU file from RemoteMaster to RIDGen. However I think I am missing a step.

Everything goes as planned per the instructions, except the instructions are not so ...

I had an extra space in my shell command.

The RID file is posted here: http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... le_id=6701

Thank you for all your suggestions and help.

Thanks!

Then I shouldn't see any
1) initial bits
2) final bits

populated in these fields.

Correct?

Hi All - I've been able to use the RM software to help decode the codes needed to create a RID file.

When I go into RIDGen, I type in the Protocol = RC5, Device = 15, EFC = 172 for "0" field, then I hit MakeHex. The program generates:
1) Freqency
2) Duty cycle
3) All the encoding info
4) Repeated ...

Yes, sorry -- I meant to say RDF folder. Thank you for all your help! I'll ask around for the RIDGen experts.

Again Thank You!
