|

Greetings,
Being a computer programmer myself, I'm curious to see the source to the IR program. I've looked in the file section here, and at Yahoo JP1, but I just can't seem to find it.
Did I miss it somehow?
Thanks,

Mark has given it several times to individuals who seemed to have a serious interest in helping enhance it. But I don't think he keeps up to date source posted anywhere.
IR is coded in Delphi Pascal, so a very limited number of programmers have the tools and knowledge needed to help enhance it. |

John,
Thanks for your reply.
Perhaps there are other ways I can help. I don't want to start off on the wrong foot with this great resource, JP1 and hifi-remote.
There was a passing comment elsewhere in the forum about adding some of the IR functionality into the RM Java app. I assume that RM is "open source", since it is hosted on SourceForge.
Now, If the IR source isn't freely available, can you describe the terms and conditions? I respect the author's right to limit the availability of the source code. But, It may be hard to mix "closed source" with the, presumably "open source", of RM.
I was wanting to assess the size and complexity of the IR program, before offering to help out with adding its functionality to RM.
I have the skills and tools, and a serious interest in helping out, but I have a lot of other activities going on these days.
Thanks,
-bill |

Hi, as many of you already known, the latest USB chip (firmware version 11) from delcom has a bug and delcom probably will suggest to modify the host application to accommodate the bug. I'm just wondering where can I get a copy of the source code of IR 6.0? I know it is coded in Pascal, just want to see if I can play around with it. BTW, if indeed we need to change IR.exe, so who can help us to fix it?
