Hi, if anyone could help me it would be awesome. I am so lost.

I purchased a slingbox pro. I have a mac book pro. I also have a star choice satellite reciever (motorola DSR 530) there are no IR codes in the slingbox menu. I have tried every code for motorola and star choice. none work.

I cannot use the JP1 program because i have a mac.

I am in desperate need of hooking this thing up.

I had this issue with the regular slingbox. so I returned it, and got the pro... it made no difference .

I am so lost ... Please help.

The only JP1 program that you need to use is RM and that's a Java program so you shouldn't have any problems running it on your Mac.

Here's the upgrade file for the DSR 530...
