JP1 Remotes

Is this supposed to be both a Media Center controller and a keyboard controler? I read that the manual says it has MCE and Philips codes. Could you read the manual and see if you can find any reference to Philips?

Maybe you should send me your USB remote so I can learn the signals and see what they really look like. However, I'm going to be out of town starting Saturday for a week, so you if you want to send me your remote, don't aim for it to get here before Monday July 20th. I'll PM you my address.

vickyg2003, unfortunately, I was a bit hasty in tossing the packaging and the manual that looked to be pretty useless.

Rob, thanks for the offer. I'm also heading out of town for a couple weeks. I'll see how things are going by the time we're both back.

The new box doesn't like my serial IR input with lirc, so I gave the above remote a try. The remote itself works fine and shows as an HID keyboard in linux (ubuntu 9.04, 32bit), but I'm having problems getting my JP1 remote to take on these codes.

Could not find a match for your device. If you are still havening a problem with device and has a compatible JP1 learning remote with the appropriate Flash cable (and an adapter if necessary) then you can use either IR or RMIR to upload a copy of your remote's image with its learned signals. Otherwise, you can pick up IR Scope and an IR Widget to record the commands to your computer. Uploading your file(s) into our diagnostic section from either method will offer us the resource to create customized upgrades which will allow control of that particular device.
