I think I've sorted it now. Please try
RMIR v2.03b.
ARRX18G error downloading from remote, raw download attached

Hi! I'm new to the forum and I am getting "Error downloading from remote" with my ARRX18G connected to RMIR. The dialog told me to do a raw download and post to this forum, so here goes:
https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=13348
I am connecting the ARRX18G via USB to my Windows 7 laptop, and running RMIR version "RemoteMaster v2.03 build 2". Do I need to do anything else to make this work?

Seems to work! I shuffled things around a little and then uploaded to the remote to make sure.

Well, after a couple saves and reloads I'm getting "Error loading file" again. The last thing I did was close the program, it said something about saving changes, I didn't think I had made any but I clicked OK.
The remote seems to work OK, and downloading it still works and looks OK.
I will try to retrace my steps and see where it's still going wrong.

RemoteMaster.windowClosing() entered
I did look at one of the device icons but didn't change it.

Got it: I replaced the upgrade under General, then double-clicked the icon checkbox, hit Cancel on the icon list, then saved. The when I closed the program it said changes weren't saved (sign of a problem) and I hit OK to save again. The resulting save is corrupted.
It doesn't happen if you look at the icon for the old device.

@MrMoody and psyclops
I've just had a day of intensive debugging and need to get down to other things. It will probably be a day or two before I can look at your issues, but I will do so when time allows.

Works fine. Double click, not single click.

I knew that. Double clicking wasn't working. The checkbox would disappear and a 0 would appear in its place. It works now after restarting. So since I can't reproduce it, don't worry about it. Hopefully it was just a side effect.

@psyclops
It looks as if the Volume Up button on the DirecTV device was once assigned to a Vol+ signal on a device that has since been deleted. There is a residue from this assignment still left in your setup data that RMIR was unable to handle. I will post a revised version in the next few days that can identify this residue and ignore it.
@MrMoody
I have been unable to reproduce the corruption caused by looking at icons, despite following your detailed description of what caused it. However, you are using the Edit Device button for something I never envisaged. I had expected it to be used only to modify the functions or button assignments for an existing device, not to replace the upgrade in its entirety, so it is not surprising if something is amiss when you use it to do that. I am looking carefully into the code to try to sort out any issues I can see that might arise from such use, in the hope that this may resolve your problems.
If you wonder why the Open button is there if I did not expect it to be used with Edit Device, it is because the same screen opens when you edit a device from the Devices panel, where my expectation is that it would be used to add a new device, not to replace an existing one.

Here is
RMIR v2.03c, as before a .jar file to replace RemoteMaster.jar in v2.03 build 2.
@psyclops
This should load your .rmir file without problems.
@MrMoody
Since I was unable to reproduce the corruption you experienced when looking at icons, I have no idea whether or not this has solved your problem. However, it should be more reliable when editing upgrades, even when replacing one upgrade with another. I am hoping that your problem was a side effect of some other corruption that this version may have solved.
If you still get reproducible problems, please post all the files needed for me to reproduce them. As your earlier bugs were dependent on particular situations in your files, I suspect your more recent ones are, too.

OK, still getting corruption if I say yes to save a file it says has changed but hasn't.
https://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... e_id=13363
Just open this file in RMIR and then close RMIR. It will say changes have not been saved and if you click Yes to save, it overwrites the good file with one which is much too small (exactly 32k) and won't load. File/Save works fine.
Don't waste time on this next one until I can nail it down, but I've also had the icon dialog won't open again, but have been unable to reproduce it after reopening RMIR, I'm not sure what's causing it.
I hope I'm not irritating you too much with my uncanny ability to break this program.

This is weird. The first two times I opened and then saved the file you posted, I got your sort of corruption - message about data being changed, saved file was too small and would not load. Further attempts to repeat this behaviour have failed, though. I've unzipped your file again to make sure I am dealing with the right file, but it saves and re-opens OK. So for the moment I remain puzzled.

That was me being stupid. The first two times I did what you said. The others I used Save, rather than closing the file, having forgotten you said that Save worked OK.
I've tracked this down. The .rmir file of an XSight remote is sufficiently large that it takes a significant time to save. The window closes before the save is complete, resulting in a corrupted file. Now I've got to find a way round it. There isn't an issue about it saying the data has changed when it hasn't. The data structures in XSight remotes are so complex that there are many ways of storing the same setup. RMIR says changed if it has used a different one from that originally loaded. In case you don't realise it, RMIR analyses the data and then reconstructs the file for uploading/saving, even if the user hasn't edited the data, so the data can still change.

Wow, that's pretty nasty (and by that I mean nasty behavior on the part of Java and/or Windows). I wonder what would happen if you closed the window while it was uploading to the remote? I'm not going to try it.
