Using .rmdu files

Hi,
I just started using a Nevo C3 and have been trying to add in an Xfinity X1 DVR. I downloaded 3 different rmdu files for Comcast into the Addons folder.
I tried to upload to the remote but I am not seeing any Comcast/Xfinity devices yet.
What I am I doing wrong?
Thank you

I am using RM Setup Editor (RMIR) v2.13.2 for this.

I don't know what the Addons folder is or what purpose it serves, but it has nothing to do with rmdu files.

To add a new device (called an "upgrade"), open RMIR, download from the remote, then follow these instructions:

The "Load" button will be called "Open" when dealing with an XSight. Save the RMIR file when you are done in order to save your changes and additions.

There is a ReadMe in the AddOns folder that explains what it is for. Currently it is used only for user-specific extensions or amendments to protocols.ini that are created with RMPB. These are files with a .prot extension that contain one or more complete protocols.ini entries. If such an entry has the same name as an existing protocols.ini entry then it takes precedence over that entry, otherwise it is read as an additional entry.

Okay, I was able to load an .rmdu file and get my cable box added to devices, thanks for directing me to that page.
