The WaveShare bare PCB option that you showed had a jumper that you could select 3.3V on the outputs. That seems like the safer option to me.

I can confirm that Waveshare board works. I can download info from remote in RMIR.

On Win10, just installed the latest drivers from FTDI, latest Java Runtime and the latest stable RemoteMaster bundle and it just works.

Noob to all things JP1 here. I am located in Europe / Switzerland and I am looking to program All for One Contour IR remotes using a Windows 11 PC. I am wondering what would currently be the best cable to buy?

Basically, you need an FTDI cable (or a Prolific cable), then you just need to modify the connector. More info here:
