Ok I've found that another file will operate my remote but what I'd like is
the protocol for this file "Onkyo_TX-SR702-CBL1135-Atlas_Ext_save space" to run my URC 8780.Because it has the setup I'd rather have.Thanks again to all the experts on this forum.Darryl P.S.if I still want that 8910 remote Robman can I send a personal cheque? |

It might be possible to mix the files, but if you want anyone to look at these files, you're gonna have to provide links. Most of us don't have the time, or the inclination, to go searching for stuff when the OP already knows where it is.

Sure. Send me a PM when you're ready and I'll send you my address. _________________ Rob

Quote: | How do I import a file from KM into my 8780 when KM won't let me because it's bigger than 50 bytes? | You need to remove button assignments until the upgrade is less than 50 bytes. This is a limitation of the remote itself, not KM. Remove the suggested number of button assignments and then you can create them as key moves instead _________________ Mark |

As Mark said, all you have to do is take the First upgrade (that uses the Device Combiner protocol), delete a few button assignments to get below the 50-byte limit, and re-assign them as keymoves on the keymove sheet, selecting (upgrade) as the device to which you want the keymoves assigned.
You cannot use the second upgrade (with the NEC 2Dev Combo protocol), as it's not compatible with the P740 processor, so your only choice is the Device Combiner upgrade.
Regardless, you can assign any function you want to any button, so your dilemma is a bit unclear. _________________ Beginners - Read this thread first

Thanks for the help guys but I guess I'm doing something wrong with keymoves in KM because there not working in IR as a device keymove addon.So my next question is what do I type in IR keymove add in because the EFC for phono isn't working?It normally worked for my old Nakamichi but not for my new Onkyo.Thanks for your excellent help.Darryl |

From the Beginners - Read this first sticky post:
gjarboni wrote: | Since we end up making the same requests for most people who ask questions, maybe this should be a sticky post. Something like:
"Having trouble with upgraded device/macros/keymoves/IR.exe"
Please post your IR and KM/RM file in the Diagnosis Area for us to look at. We can usually spot the mistake in seconds, whereas it could take days with us asking you questions trying to guess which step you might have skipped.
PLUS....
1) PLEASE post a link to the files |

After copying that code, use the [Import] button on IR's Key Moves tab. _________________ Mark |

Is the URC 8910 from BestBuy ready to JP1 or do they need to be modified? | All 8910's are JP1-ready out of the box. _________________ Beginners - Read this thread first

FWIW, I've seen a few 8910s on eBay from some liquidation outfit in the Toronto area. I bought one from them, and it cost me about $30 CDN delivered.
The downside is they only take Paypal, and don't seem to have any now. |
