JP1 Remotes

Hi,

I begin to make simple macros.

1) In the button list I can see button 83 to 87. Where are they localized on the RC ?

2) With IR.exe I affect a simple command to button A, B, C and D. After writing to RC it does not work.
I program the same command directly with the RC and it works.
I read the working memory from the RC and IR.exe indicate "The Fav/Scan list contains too many entries. The list will be truncated." What happens ?

3) My old Sony Amp/Tuner has no prog+ and prog- function. (I checked all OBC codes from 0 to 127). I can make all individual prog's. Is it possible to make one with an extender? Where can I find some basic infos about the memory variables ?

Thanks

These are the shifted buttons (Power->Sleep, Vol+->Bright+, etc.). I have amended the .rdf and .map accordingly. As far as I know, RM will correctly show the assignments of such shifted buttons, but will nevertheless create key moves for them.

The URC-7780 uses a special format for macros that is not currently handled by IR. You will need to wait until that format is handled.

Some remotes like the 8206 have a "Channel +/- simulation" mode which does exactly what you are trying to do. Unfortunately, the 7780 does not seem to offer this mode. I am not aware of any extender for the 7780, and do not think that any extender implements such a mode. An alternative might be using the ToadTog protocol, that can maintain states. I do not think this extended protocol exists for the 7780 yet, but one of the experts might infirm/confirm this.

Some remotes introduce a delay factor between keycodes so when you download a macro from the remote, it shows up with extra keycodes between the real keys. IR7 doesn't handle this format at this time.
