Nope, that didn't work, even with a re-boot, until I put it back into Drivers. I suppose it would have been OK if the Registry entry path had been changed.

porttalk driver

When I'd looked in the registry, I found a PortTalk entry in the list of services, with the following key:

ImagePath = System32\Drivers\PortTalk.sys

When I went looking, the file wasn't there. Seems odd there would be a registry entry but no driver. Would that be created by RM? I can't see any ...

RMIR parallel port failure (FIXED)

Thanks, but that issue concerned non-standard port addresses with IR.exe. I am using a motherboard port on 378 and IR.exe doesn't have a problem with this. RMIR does, although it appears to see the port, or at least accept the manual configuration.

I am using the Windows version of RM, with the ...

RMIR with parallel port

Should this work in 32-bit Vista? The hardware works with IR.exe, but RMIR just gives an error "no remotes found", even when run in Admin mode.

I have had the interface cable working with RMIR under Linux, but have just obtained a parallel port extender cable for my Vista PC motherboard. IR.exe ...

Well here is the trick I use. I have a DVD Recorder that needs a different set of keys depending on if I'm editing a DVD or playing a DVD, so I just use two different upgrades so I don't need all the keys on the upgrade, so I split them into two different upgrades.

So you just swap the device ...

I'm not quite sure how NEW you are, but I see you joined a few days ago so I'm treating you as a total newbie.
Probably wise. I tried to read through the guides but they only start to make sense once you start programming.

Have you created an upgrade with KM or RM, or are you trying to do this ...

Keymove memory limitations

I have been creating my first upgrade from a WAV file and learning facility. I managed to capture all the extra button codes but was too enthusiastic in assigning them to the OFA buttons as I ran out of keymove space. Can someone confirm my understanding from what I've read so far that my options ...

Working again

After some trawling of the forums looking for a 7562 B00 file, I finally found this:

The user requesting help had exactly the same symptoms as me, on the same remote. The file he downloaded did not bring mine back to life immediately ...

If by E2 you mean the EEPROM, would the IR.exe advanced tools for writing 00 or FF be any use? I couldn't see any description of these in the help file.

I did notice a single byte 00 amongst the FFs at the end of the RAW data.

I tried that, thanks, but it made no difference.

After booting into Windows, I tried IR.exe again to download and save the file as IR. The result is here.

I uploaded the rmir file downloaded from the remote. I'll have to re-boot into Windows to get an ir one, if you need it, and to read the help file - thanks for that.

Unfortunately, even the SETUP (MAGIC) key is unresponsive, so I can't enter any codes. The interface still allows downloads, so I was hoping there would be some way to wipe memory. Where can I find documentation on the IR tools? The Help command in the menu seems to want to find a *.hlp file which I ...

URC-7652 bricked?

I was getting along OK for a while with newbie-ish activities like making up the parallel cable and uploading additional files but seem to have run into a brick! wall. My remote is no longer responding to button presses, though it flashes twice when batteries are inserted and when data is uploaded ...
