JP1 Remotes

Okay ... the script did in fact install three menu links (in my Ubuntu 20.04 system) but they are under the 'Sound & Video' menu group.

RMDU, RMIR, and RMPB. Each works as expected ...

No, in a Linux environment it's sh setup.sh . I always put the shortcuts on a QuickLaunch (in KDE, exists under other names with other desktops) on the panel.

That's how I installed it. It's been a while since I've updated, but I don't recall having to manually install the other shortcuts, or ...

I did (or do) not know if a vbs script would run reliably in a Linux environment. Previous installations of the .sh script created three shortcuts. I just thought this was a change/upgrade with v 3.x ...

I did not. The menu item changed to "-rm". The other menu item was deleted. Changing the command to "-ir" solved the issue. I can re-add the other menu items.

Thanks for the help ...

I hope this is a dumb question, but I downloaded and updated RemoteMaster (v3.0.3) on a Linux system and now the executable runs RMDU (?). I no longer have the option to run RemoteMaster (which is still displayed in the Start menu) or RMIR (which is gone, altogether).

How do I get those apps to ...

Has anyone found a discrete code for the RVU "input"?

Okay, the files at this link worked. I started from scratch with my directories on the previous downloads, so that version must have problems somewhere.

Thanks for the help. Now I can start with re-programming and building. It's great to know that new, programmable remotes are still available ...

I did a fresh download of RMIR, but I still have problems. I don't have an RMIR.err file, but there is one for rmaster.err, but I don't see any provisions for uploading to this site within the message tools.

Where would that be located in this forum?

I should also mention that there was (is) no ...

Is it possible to program this remote? It's readily available at Best Buy, and has a communicative JP1 port, but I can't get it going with RMIR software.

Are there things I would need to to to get this to respond to programming commands? I've found RDFs and image files for the remote, but either ...

Thanks for this. I never could get RemoteMaster to run on my Ubuntu Precise notebook PC, though I could on others ...

Thanks for the links. I opted for the "learning remote" route. I guess that's a good incentive to keep an extra remote around.

Is there a document that shows how to create a device from a set of learned IR commands? I can capture the codes with a Pronto (Marantz) remote and decode using the DecodeCCF utility.

The Atlas is the OCAP 1056B01. The Insignia has several model numbers, most commonly NS-RC01G-09 and NS-RC02U-10A. There's a thread about them here ...

I've only used the DIY Gadget cable and adapter but they've performed flawlessly for me with several different remote models. I have a 15-1994 and have searched tirelessly for another model that performs as well. The Insignia model works and is laid out well. The challenge is finding the backlit ...

Any PCI card should work using defaults. You can also set LPT modes and address. In the long term, the easiest and best thing to do is buy a USB JP1.2/3 cable and JP1.1 adapter. This will allow you to update your 15-1994s and any newer model remote you may acquire in the future ...
