JP1 Remotes

Do you perhaps have the devices defined backwards? Shouldn't it be something like:

BoundDevice=DVD; BoundKey=Vol+; DeviceButton=AUD; DeviceType=Audio; SetupCode 1632; HexCmd=$00 $F6

Ergo, you want the DVD/Vol+ key to actually send the 1632/$00 $F6 code.

I'm new and don't have my IR file to ...

Refer to this thread. I found using device combiner protocol for my satellite receiver, which allows you to define a keypress duration, worked very well. Another benefit was that I was able to remove the pause between each macro command sent to the sat receiver.

Recently, in this thread regarding Dishplayer(old) and the every-other-keypress problem I was experiencing, Capn Trips told me:

"To get mine to work CONSISTENTLY, I have used the Device Combiner protocol to build an upgrade for the Dish unit and set a duration of 3. This seems to work pretty ...

I've been troubleshooting another issue with a parallel port on one of my PC's, as it won't work with the JP1 cable (two other older PC's work fine though). Found this site with lots of info regarding the parallel port. Perhaps it will help?

My final solution for all the issues I was having with the Dish Network 4900 satellite receiver:

Using Device Combiner with the single device, and setting the duration to 3 on all keys. Every key now works consistently, even using them via LKP & DKP.

I'll upload the KM file this afternoon. It ...

I received this error once also, on a stand-alone XP box. I remember fixing it by ensuring all .rdf, .sys and .dll files were in the same directory as IR.exe. I don't remember which of these were missing (it was one of 'em), but I haven't had the problem since in MANY loads of IR.

To get mine to work CONSISTENTLY, I have used the Device Combiner protocol to build an upgrade for the Dish unit and set a duration of 3. This seems to work pretty optimally.

Finally, again, I'm unfamiliar with your particular unit, but I found Discrete ON and OFF for my Dish unit amongst the ...

Geez, I'm feeling like a putz here, 'cause I found another clue that I had overlooked at the beginning of my ordeal (newbie mistake!). Sorry to have had you guys chasing a red herring. :oops:

I took another look at the up, down, pgup and pgdn signals coming from the oem remote by learning. I found ...

Finally, I think I'm onto something ... with the holiday and travelling, I've been tardy troubleshooting this problem.

I found that I can use LKP successfully on my TV - works right every time. Even started playing with toadtog, and just for grins, used short/long keypress for on/off. Works as I ...

As a newbie, and as my first shot at programming with an extender, I want the arrow keys on my 8810w to act as arrowup/dn on a single press, and pgup/dn on a double press for use with my Dish 4900 device. The wife wants the functions to be close together due to limited hand functionality.

It almost ...

Clint - I'll be needing it!!!

I just bought the same S760 setup you did, with the 510 receiver. Glad you like the sound - I'm hoping for the same luck!

Haven't set anything up yet, and won't have the chance for a week or so. Please do post your findings if you get it all working, as I'll be re ...
