Sorry. I inadvertently took some "grumpy" pills yesterday. All better now.

Your disassociating yourself from that effort is disingenuous,at best. I try to comply with what you developers ask of us requestors and play by the rules. If I am incorrectly using the system, then OK, please let me know, but please don't try to paint as some sort of eccentric loon for doing that which "you" (collectively, not you personally) have asked of us.

Thanks for the apology, but not needed, no offence taken. I wasn't trying to paint you or anyone as an eccentric loon, I was just trying to plead "not guilty" but must have swallowed some of your grumpy pills before I did so. The development "team" members have agreed to disagree on the use of SourceForge and its tools. Greg does indeed want you to use it in the way you are doing, and he's the boss!

THIS upgrade won't load. Used to load without error in earlier versions. One user said he was able to change the remote model by editing the file in notepad and got it to work.

I would think that this indicates that the RDF for the
Atlas 5 Day URC-1055 JP1.3 3000 extender
has an error.

Thanks. Could an admin update the upgrade so it's for some other remote that is known to have a good RDF?

I just switched it to the regular version of the Atlas 3033.

I suspect the line

Code: Select all

AdvCodeAddr=$0C00..$19FF

should be

Code: Select all

AdvCodeAddr=$0C00..$13FF

since that is the learned area in the unextended remote and the size of the EEPROM is only $1400.

Could you please document where to find the latest Maps and rdfs as this is not clear. I only found the information by accident last time I installed the software on my old machine, and I can't find them again now that I am installing on my new machine.
Thx
Don.

Did you look in Readme.html, in the Getting Started section?

There are links to both the latest Maps and Images and RDFs.

Readme.html in included in the .zip file, and is also available at the Remote Master home page.

Don't you think that's a natural place to have that information?

OK found them in the Readme, here:

When I click File > Open from RM, the buttons next to the "Look In" folder name are blank. I can only tell that they're there if I hover over them.

I'm referring to the following buttons:

Up One Level
Create New Folder
List
Details

They were visible in version 1.99. This is with Win7 64-bit.

These are ok in Win 2k.

They are OK in Vista, too. The "Open" window is part of Java Swing, not something created in RM, so I can't see how Greg or I could have done anything to cause this problem. Have you upgraded to a new Java version? If so, can you go back to see if you now have the same problem in v1.99?

The buttons appear fine in 1.99 but not in 2.00 (I don't know which preview it might have started with).

Here's a pic of the 1.99 open next to the 2.00 open.
