RMIR Xsight Support

[Barf]

Nice to hear that we were able to identify and fix the problem. Here is a udev rule that (I think) will work on both sides of the Atlantic:

Code: Select all

# European One for all 8603
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="8001", ATTRS{idVendor}=="06e7", SYMLINK+="xsight" GROUP="dialout", MODE="660"

# American Acoustic Research (Universal Electronics) ARRX18G
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="8005", ATTRS{idVendor}=="06e7", SYMLINK+="xsight" GROUP="dialout", MODE="660"

It may be feasible to generate it from Setup.sh.

BTW, I have an 8603, virtually virgin, lying around since several years, might finally be time to attack it...

BTW2, Ubuntu is "long time stable", Fedora for nerds who "love" updating...

Barf,

How about this for covering all Xsight models?

Sounds like your maps and images are quite old if you're getting the 8603 as your only choice.

my rdf file is "USB8005 (ARRX18G XSight 18).rdf", and it specifies 8603 on the "ImageMap=" line. Does that mean my rdf is old, as well?

I just checked the rdf file in "RemoteMaster.v2.03build14" and it shows the same thing.

[mdavej]

No. That's ok since they're virtually identical. I was just thrown off by the 8603.map message. It's fine. False alarm.

[deerewright]

ID 8005 should be Xsight brand, model 18G, not URC 8603. It would be very unusual for someone in the US to end up with an 8603.

As unusual as my URC-7960 and 7962?

Looks OK to me.

Sorry for the delay, but I've only just seen this post. I see from your error file that you are using the development version, RMIR v2.04 build 1. Unfortunately there is a bug in that build. I have revised the .jar file since then. The latest .jar file for v2.04 is here. If you replace the one in build 1 with this, it will update it to build 5. I think that should resolve your problem.

Hi Graham,

Worked perfectly thank you very much

Appreciated

I am using a Nevo C2 USB8006

Up until a few months ago, I could use RemoteMaster on a Windows 10 x64 machine. But now I keep getting the 'No remotes found!' box. I have tried old and new versions of RM, the reg hack and ensured the rdf and image files are in the correct folders. Is there anything else I can try?

I am now running the latest 2.04 build 6 on both Windows XP and a Mac and have run into a new problem. When I open a rmir file, I can no longer view anything in the 'Favourites' tab. I click on the tab and nothing happens. All the other tabs work fine. Going back to 203 build 14, the tab works.

No remotes is still most likely the registry. Make sure you change ALL Xsight keys while the remote is plugged in. Then unplug and plug back in. Then confirm the appropriate interface is chosen in RM. I do all of my Xsight programming in Win 10 and find that I occasionally have to perform the reg change again to restore connectivity.

Graham is aware that none of the tabs for Xsight display correctly in 2.04 build 6. Please use 2.03 build 14 until it's fixed.

Apologies, but I don't have time for fixing RMIR at present. I hope that normal service will resume in due course, but no promises as to when that will be.
