JP1 Remotes

ok ..
i currently only have RM as open office does not work with KM

i programed 90% of my tivo -2 buttons into my rs15-2104 , but i have run out of memory for learned codes.

now i can fire up the ir program , download all the stuff off the remote ( usb ) and see all the hex codes etc. ... i have the tivo rm file and i have loaded it up into the rm program .. then i spent some time setting up everything like i wanted it , copied the block into the ir.exe program , set up a device and uploaded it to my remote.

here is where it gives me problems.

nothing i get from remotemaster seems to work when i move it to ir.exe .. it's their and it looks like it is all setup ( even the hex codeds match for the correct button ) , but once on the remote , it doesnt work.

i'm really starting to think their is a protacal problem , but i'm stuck at how to figure it out.

if anyone is willing to look at my files let me know and i'll stick em somewhere.

Did you remember to delete the learned signal (or use a different device mode) to the learned signals don't interfere with testing the upgrade?

That's why we have a diagnosis area

Be sure to post the URL for your file(s) back to the thread after you put them there.

It sounds like we would need three files to diagnose what went wrong:
1) A .ir file containg the learned signals.
2) A .ir file matching what you uploaded to the remote to test the upgrade.
3) A .rmdu file containing the upgrade.

(I prefer a .zip containing related files. But seperate URLs is also OK. Don't use archiving/compression format other than .zip. Many experts here only have programs to support .zip).

ok i ziped up the files

In the Output panel of RM it says

Upgrade Protocol Code *** REQUIRED ***

in red. That means you need to install the protocol upgrade as well as the device upgrade. You didn't.

thought i did paste that into the protocol area

it's their protocol: $0111

a driect d/l from the reomte

In the Tivo.rmdu file, there is no Device or Sub-Device specified. The learned signals in good now - sound and tivo - rs.ir show Dev=133 and Sub-Dev=48.

tried adding them , didnt help
i never put them in because if you hold your mouse ovet the box is says default = 133 and 48

i went back and looked .. the learned codeds do show that , and i did add the device and sub in rm .. but once in ir from rom , their is no corasponding device sub device that i can see .

The Device and subdevice codes are part of the device upgrade. If you haven't already you just need to copy the device upgrade from RM into IR again. You don't need to set it in IR.

yep , did copy it when i added them into rm .. no luck ;(

have you reuploaded your IR file since updating the device upgrade yet?

Lucindrea, are you saying nothing works?
I see one small discrepancy - on the keymoves tab in IR, there are keymoves for VCR/0618. Three of those are one byte long, two, from RM, are 2-byte long as they should be. Whether any of the other stuff is correct I can't tell as I don't have TiVo.

Sorry. I don't know what I did wrong in IR.exe while checking your file the first time. But I rechecked and you're right.

Now it looks to me like the protocols.ini entry for "TiVo (Official 2-byte)" must be wrong. I expect most people use one of the other TiVo choices. Try that.

I'll try to find time later to check/correct the "TiVo (Official 2-byte)" entry in protocols.ini

ok tried a differnt protocol and it works , the maping is off but i think i just did some of the buttons wrong .. good news it that it's talking to the tivo now

this works
