RDF problems with ReplayTV/Showstopper remote

I just went to update one of my ReplayTV remotes and I noticed that the RDFs have gotten all messed up. There's just 2 versions of this remote, yet there's an RDF supposedly for "version 3".

I have fixed the RDFs and loaded them into the RDF folder. Nils, could you check that they are still RM compliant.

There are now 3 RDFs, the first one is for when you really don't know which version of the remote you have. I have disabled the keymove section in this RDF.

Once you select an RDF you will get a pop-up message about a fixed data conflict, click OK to let IR make the change. This will update the signature of the remote so next time you download from this remote IR will automatically select the right RDF.

Just FYI, the difference between version1 remotes and version2 remotes is where the keymove section starts. For version1 remotes it starts at $01C and for version2 remotes it starts at $01D. Byte $01C in the version2 remotes is used to store the last device button pressed before you did a 993 VPT operation, but as to what purpose this serves, I have no idea.

Mark, the version of the Replay remote that KM supports is version1. I have entered the device combiner settings in the version2 RDF which you can use to add DC support for the version2 remotes in KM if you want.

I don't know what the 88EF setting is for so I just copied to from version1. I suspect that 88 refers to register R88 for EEPROM settings, but I have no clue about the EF part.

The 88 is the register operand for an AND instruction, and the EF is the value to AND, i.e.,

Code: Select all

56 88 EF    AND R88,#EFh

Rob, got them and they look fine. I assume you wanted to get rid of the 3 older ones?

Right, these are replacements. If and when I get some of the IR tweeks that I've asked Mark for (ie, soft fixed data), I will need to change these again.
