Disable activities shows up for my RMT5D21 when i use 3.2.11

Obviously a minor bug, but I think I've got it. I started off by downloading the empty remote to RMIR — and I just noticed that as I was working on it, no "Disable Activities". So what I did was to do a "New" with RMT5D21 and Disable Activities was there! So I saved the file I was working on, and loaded it into the RMIR that I had just done the "New" RMT5D21, and now it's there. Strange, but solved.

My seller has already given me a full refund and I get to keep the RMT5D21
I doubt the seller actually has the RMT8D21
So Lesson learned, and I have another remote

My seller has now given me a 100% refund. I don't think that Ebay's system allowed for a 50% refund. So I can't complain.

When I asked my seller if he could now dispatch a NS-RMT8D21, he said there were none left. All of a sudden, all the RMT8D21's disappeared from Ebay, except one. With this one, the trader is charging twice as much as the others, but it's still coming from China and so I wouldn't have to pay the massive shipping charges I get if I buy from the USA. I contacted the trader before ordering, and he confirms that it is a proper 8D21. Anyway it cost me £22.81 in total. Let's hope I get what I paid for! I think it's bad that no 8-device version was sold in Europe.but this is a decent price.

As for the NS-RMT5D21, there are loads of them on sale on Ebay UK, for under £10, it has 4 device buttons and the "5" refers its ability to also control volume and mute via a 5th device. Of course we can program and access 8 devices with our JP1 cable and RMIR! There are few JP1 remotes these days, with are as flexible as the "5", and it's a cheap way into using JP1 and RMIR!

You can't get the URC-3680 in the UK unless you pay silly money to have it sent from the USA. Or, in its other guise as Insignia NS-RMT8D21, which I'm getting sent from China. Locally we can get the European version, URC-3661 in UK, but that only has 6 device buttons.

When the OFA version of urc3680 was sold on Amazon it was never called the 3680. And when I do a ebay search for essential 8 antimicrobial remote four show up. Yes I'm in the states. I think most people list on ebay by original name not model # shown in the battery compartment.

I have four of the urc-3680, all bought from Best Buy on-line. Two I just notice have sticker on the front it has "Made in China" written on it supposedly to where Insignia is supposed to be. But in battery compartment it also has written The Netherlands? I removed the sticker partially to reveal Insignia that was blackened out with paint or marker. The black isn't remnants of the sticker which is all silver on the back of it.
