|
|
I have two dish products, dvr, and digital converter. I have, using ir.exe and KM and updating a dish file Dish_VIP622(8910).txt It worked ok as is. However when I chose to edit it for the dvr, I had to change the protocol to dish network combo. It did work then. All tho I have more to do, it conflicts with the digital converter,(as did vip622). I can change the remote address on the original dvr remote, but I have failed to be able to do that with the 15-134. I learned the codes for both the original remote, and with the address changed, and saw that the sub dev changed from 0 to 4. I tried to change this on the KM general tab, but the revised file didn't work. I'm not clear where the "4" should go. The original unit code in km read 1, and the device0 read 1, device1 read blank. I replaced device0 with a 4. Did not work. I have saved the file, looked at *.txt files for directtv d11/12, and got more confused. I'm at an impass. |

You won't get anywhere with the DirecTV files. Have a look at THIS file and try changing the Unit code, not the Device code. |

Thanks mdavej, I'll try the unit code. My look at the directtv file was to try to understand how to set up for multiple unit of the same type (2 dish dvrs) that are near each other. I'm still a confused on the general km tab how to use the device(?), and unit listings.[/quote] |

your Dish device. If you are looking at learned signals in IR.exe,
the sub-device that is displayed will be one less than the unit code.
For example, if you are using unit code 3, the learned signals will
show sub-device 2. _________________ Mike England |

Thank you all. I finally got it to function with a unit of 3 in both the dvr and with the 15-134. I will post the txt file once I am sure it is clean (and with notes). As far as I know there is no present file for the Dish dtvpal dvr. The radio shack, with it's very small keys (boo!) requires no keymoves, and has a key for every original remote function. Some keys are still available for future macros, which I will work on. |

I believe THIS is the DTV PAL file.
EDIT: Nevermind. Didn't pick up on the DVR part. How do you like the DVR?

Yes, it's had a lot of problems. The dvr is for only "over the air", not cable or satellite.
Go to
http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1099071
and
www.dtvpal.com
The remotes for the dvr, and the analog converter respond to both units, that's why I had to create a modified jp1 file for different units. I had to use a dish combined protocol for the DVR, which was different than the dish files. The learning part for the codes of the converter pal gave an error for the 15-134. But I was able to figure codes out from several dish codes through trial and error. |

Hey All!
I have the one for all 8810 and used the Dish 625dvr 1775 for the 8910 and it works perfectly with the dtvpal dvr. Hope this helps |
