Sorry about the notes! Actually I have some slightly older versions with a lot more comments, but after the long break I imported the data from the remote to make sure I was working on the version I'd been using.

I think the SAT/CBL device was to perform a special command that allowed discrete Off ...

I've put a copy of my ir file in my DropBox folder, the one before changing the Discrete On to just Power, you can get it here

I think I'd rate it as 'quite complex'!

Thanks again for the reply, I'll take a look at the latest tools.

However, I'm not that hopeful that there will be a 'nice' solution to this. In the short term I've just replaced the Discrete On with a 'Power' command, not ideal but it will suffice.

I did not actually change the DVD commands at ...

Thanks for the reply.

I set up the remote I have quite some time ago, most of it was done in 2004, and have pretty much forgotten all that I learnt from this forum when I did it!!

The remote is a URC-8060 and I'm using the IR.EXE program from Jan 2005, V6.0. I'm using the extender for the URC-8060 ...

Panasonic DMR-BWT720 Discrete On problem

I recently replaced an older Panasonic DVD recorder/PVR for a DMR-BWT720.

All the codes that worked with the old recorder work for the DMR-BWT720, most use the Setup Code 0490.

However, the Discrete On code, Hex Command 83, that worked fine with the older DVD recorder will turn the DMR-BWT720 on ...

DiscreteOn and DiscreteOff for XP MCE - Solution

Windows XP Media Centre does not have discrete On and Off commands, only a power toggle. This make it difficult to use with complex macros on multiple device systems as you have to rely on ToadTogs to let remote know the current state of the PC.

I've found another solution, which does not rely on ...

Now that I've got this working, where is the best place to post a description of how to do it so that others may benefit? I'm sure there must be other people who could use discrete on/off capability for Media Centre. I'll need to upload the program that I wrote that is called by the shortcut to ...

I can't figure it out from one sample. I'm not sure I could figure it out from a lot of samples. IR keyboards are tricky. You're never learning enough to see the whole pattern.
Oh dear! All I can say is that, if I load that IR file to the 8060, then pressing the 1 key does what I want! So I guess ...

Re the Kameleon-4 codes. Do you have the protocol, device number and a code listing for SAT/0214 as I am "collecting" setup codes? I have downloaded all the Pace WAV upgrades for the Kameleon-6 from OneForAll's site (since the Kameleon-6 has ...

Can I assume then that this is not an extender problem? I don't want to leave you hanging if there is in fact some problem that just arose.

Nils,

Yes, you are correct, it is not an extender problem, the problem was caused by the different way that the extender and standard remotes handle key ...

Adding 'learned' command to extended remote

I've been using my 8060 and 8040's with extenders for some time without too many problems. One of the annoyances with my system, which is nothing to do with the remote or the extender, is that the media centre PC has no discrete on/of commands.

However, since I got an IR keyboard I have been able ...

Yes, I know the old OnDigital box is not exactly the best free view box, in fact it's quite possibly the worst! Having said that it's actually been running for the last 3 years without any lockup at all, which has to be good. Changing channels can take 2 seconds or more, but if you use its crappy ...

Hi,

I know that this topic has been dormant for quite a while, and I'm probably the only person using this extender, but I've come across a little problem which is quite annoying!

I'm having problems with key moves for a specific device. Its an old Pace OnDigital box (UK Freeview TV), Sat device ...
