PAL Slingbox incompatible with US BIN files

Post by UKSlinger »

Just got news from Slingmedia Community website that BIN files created for the US Slingbox are incompatible with the recently (this week!) released PAL version. Mine says it has IR Blaster version 4 which may be the cause. Any chance someone could look into maybe creating a new RDF for the PAL version?

FYI I tried all the BIN files from the JP1 Slingbox download area and there IS one which loads successfully (Pioneer). Wierd.....

Cheers
Tony

ps. I need to control a Panasonic eh60D.......I will gladly try any BIN someone creates for it :wink:

(Note: you will need the latest version of RM)

You'll be the first person to actually test the new RDF and the code that was added to support it, so please post back with your results.

Thanks Robman for coding this so quick! Not working at present. I get a 'remote load error' in RM when I select the new RDF file and a ton of java error messages. This does not happen if I select other RDF files.

Regardless I clicked OK and proceeded to do the following (sorry I'm a bit of a newbie)

open the Pana 60D KM file I found on JP1 (or any other .rmdu)
Then save as 'export upgrade binary' into the SBAV dir
Load up slingplayer, device(egDVD), Other, then type in the BIN file name (eg C0340)

It still says failure to load.........

Hope this helps
Cheers again

Ps. I am using RM v1.55

I'd guess your error messages are because you don't have the latest and greatest Images and Maps. See this thread.
