Hello,
Congratulations to the developers for the already accomplished work.
Sorry for my English, I do not practice enough.
I have a URC-7780 (UEI SW VERSION 1062) since two weeks.
I made an IR signal interface and a serial JP1.2 adapter.
I can decode the IR signal of my 18 years old Sony amp/tuner (protocol Sony12)
I can read and write my 7780 memory with IR.exe (ver 7.00)
I want add a device AMP code 1001 with some functions with Remotemaster (see below).
Upgrade code 0 = 63 E9 (Amp/1001) DW_amp1 (RM v1.73)
CA 0D 01 B0 B0 00
End
After I send the data to the 7780 the device AMP code 1001 is not available.
I made an upgrade Wav file (IRtoWav 1.9) but the 7780 does not recognize it.
Finally I downloaded a little upgrade file by OFA. The audio upgrade was good for the 7780.
I dumped the memory and the new device was recognized by IR.exe. I stored the "new device".
I reset the 7780 with the original data and tried to upgrade with the stored "new device".
The direct memory write has no result (the device is not available) and a wav upgrade file is not recognized.
I suppose the different parts (IR.exe, IRtoWav and Remotemaster) works good.
I suspect an error or some missing info in the RDF file.
I would like to compare the OFA upgrade audio data and the same "self made" upgrade.
In order to do this y need a "wav to hex" decoder/converter soft.
Has somebody an idea ?

Salut Dominique,
the RDF for the urc-7780 is incomplete. The following entry has to be added to the [Checksums] section :
Alternatively, you can download the corrected version here. _________________ Alain |

Thanks Alain,
The new RDF for URC-7780 seem to work.
I can transfer my new devices to the RC and they are recognized.
Now I can start the reel programming work ... _________________ Dominique ...

I suspect that the checksum line ^$400:$402..$BFF in the RDF is incorrect.
After I have learned some buttons on the remote IR was reporting an incorrect checksum at $400. After uploading back to the remote the remote did not function (presumably because it didn't like the new checksum that IR had written)
I found that changing the line in the RDF to ^$400:$402..$7FF solved the problem. It also feels sensible, because it means that the checksum is of the UpgradeAddr memory rather than the UpgradeAddr and half of the LearnedAddr memory. |

Hi everybody,
Finally I arrived to program my URC-7780. I am very satisfied with the result but without the JP1 technology and the assistance from the forum the expenditure would have been useless.
I am quiet until autumn 2007, because at this time the DVB-T will arrive in my area.
In order to give a little work to our experts I noted following points:
1: If I affect a function to a normal Shift-Key RM generate a "Key Move" with EFC code in IR. These key moves are not working.
2: For a TV device as example I cannot affect a function to a non shifted key like start, pause End or Play because a non working key move is generated. Finally I used only "Video Acc" and "Misc Audio" devices, and renamed these with the RC.
3: When a key is working on a device I can create a Shift command to this key (using the key code) with IR.
4: Even I don't use the "Menu" button, a Menu function is automatically affected when I use Vol+ and Vol- . Finally the function is on the "Mute" button (see point 5). Take care to affect a non working code to "Menu" in order to control the situation.
5: "Menu" and "Mute" buttons are inverted.
6: "Start" and "Play" buttons are inverted.
7: I cannot change the order setting and devices with IR. I make the changes on the RC and reload the configuration to IR.
8: I cannot program macros with IR (see precedent post) but it's easy to make with the RC when all the devices are working individually.
9: I have not used the learning function from the RC so I don’t know if it works.
Good work _________________ Dominique ...

AdvCodeFormat=EFC
I think that's causing RM and/or IR to create the incorrect key move format. _________________ Mark |

Hello,
1: I removed AdvCodeFormat=EFC in the RDF.
The result is the same. The moved keys are not working.
2: As I cannot backup the memory because the macros make IR errors (see precedent post), I search a way to dump the complete memory without the control from IR. So I can make different tries and restore memory with the initial data's. Has somebody a solution ? _________________ Dominique ...
