PM me your login details for the Harmony software (MyHarmony of the standalone 7.7 ?) and I can install it on my 650 and build you a BIN file.

Did it control your device OK ?

foxracin1979 · Post by **foxracin1979** » Mon Jan 15, 2018 4:26 am

It controls my device yes.. The only 2 issues I've found are the ok button to select on something doesn't work but I can select by pressing the guide button! I was actually just trying to configure the custom Remote 8 listed in the How to replace remote with a generic customizable image! That remote is very close to the factory remote for my Thorstream! If there's a way to upload or send a picture of my original, the Button placement would work perfectly. Also I'm not able to use any navigational on my PHONE at all..

OK. Getting a correct image can really be done ONLY if Sling have produced the image, otherwise it is a huge amount of work. And I can't explain the phone, the BIN file is stored in the Slingbox so if the arrow buttons work on one device they should work on all devices.

Now that the Bin has been created, is it alot of work to set up the generic customizable one on placeshiftingenthusiasts.com/customising-the-remote-image-on-your-slingplayer/

If its alot of work then I completely understand and I'm able to work with what you've already setup.. and even being I think with a few missing links to the puzzle I may be able to create this one but your the expert so I more than value your opinions

Sorry, not sure what you mean. Can you be a bit more specific ?

foxracin1979 · Post by **foxracin1979** » Mon Jan 15, 2018 5:13 am

Sure. I'm referring to the remote and section on this link

placeshiftingenthusiasts.com/customising-the-remote-image-on-your-slingplayer/

There's a very similar Remote that even has the custom buttons on the control. Also says that the writing on the buttons are also customizable.. Is that true and how difficult would that be?

It's all covered in the instructions. Have you not read them ?

foxracin1979 · Post by **foxracin1979** » Mon Jan 15, 2018 6:10 am

Yes sir I sure have..and I am going to attempt to configure it but I have the Bin file of the one you programmed but I do not have all the codes for the new button commands but I believe with enough research I will accomplish it

If you want the GUIDE function copied to the OK button, we can do that.
