[SlimDevices: Touch] Universal remote controls SB3 but not Touch
Hi I'm trying to get my universal remote (One For All URC 7556) to work with the Touch. It works fine with my SB3 (using the JVC DVD code 0623) but it seems to do absolutely nothing with the Touch. I found this rather odd since the SB3 and Touch remotes appear to be largely interchangeable i.e. the SB3 remote controls the Touch fine and vice versa (sans a few keys).

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Universal remote controls SB3 but not Touch
That seems rather a strange design decision. Is there any particular reason why, given that it used to work? Also why does the SB3 remote still control the Touch? Is it outputting two sets of IR codes? -- mr-b mr-b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10044 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77705 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Universal remote controls SB3 but not Touch
Ah, so I'm guessing you mean that the SB3 (etc.) remote only ever used a non-JVC code? This is a real pain since now at least one quite popular brand of universal remotes that used to work with SB kit now no longer does so. What's most frustrating is that I don't think anyone ever knew (from the forum posts I've seen anyway) that the proper codes weren't the JVC DVD ones. Otherwise it would have been possible to get the manufacturer to change the codes and incorporate them in all new remotes. :-( -- mr-b mr-b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10044 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77705 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Universal remote controls SB3 but not Touch
Alll this may have been known about for years by certain ppl, but the JVC vs proper remote code thing has been a complete revelation to me (SB user since SB3). I'm not in any way an OFA remote fan-boy, but the fact that that their supoort dept has offered several times (to me anyway) to create a code for any device that they don't have in their database by sending in a learned-code or actual device remote control with an upgraded remote in return, suggests to me that they *are* willing to add new devices to their database. Then contrast this with SD/Logitech not documenting the proper codes in user-readable way e.g. manual or wiki, then silently pulling the JVC code support from newer devices, and then just happening to have their own universal remote offering - it all does tend to be rather irksome. :( -- mr-b mr-b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10044 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77705 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
[SlimDevices: Touch] Where is Date Time setting?
It seems very odd, but I can't find the Date Time setting on the Touch. (It's present under Settings Screen on the Radio, Controller and SqueezePlay) Call me European, but the 12h clock really irks me. ;) -- mr-b mr-b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10044 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77297 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Where is Date Time setting?
Very odd - the setting is now back again. Maybe it's because I was alternating between touch screen and remote, and the font size change threw me. Or that some menus seem to be entered from the bottom, IYSWIM. -- mr-b mr-b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10044 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77297 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Release date touch 10th of april
Logitech Europe support just said that the Touch was released yesterday lunchtime - express delivery orders get priority shipment with expected delivery by the end of this week.
