Re: [H] Universal remotes?

Yes, that is the site. I've not recently looked at what current remotes still sport a JP1 connector, the forums should have a list. Beyond the cable that you can build or buy, the software is totally free. http://controlremote.sourceforge.net/ A similar project exists for Harmony though it's r

Re: [H] Universal remotes?

j., So, I've gone an googled "JP1" and I have found the www.hifi-remote.com site, www.uei.com site, and www.oneforall.com site. The "Kameleon" choices look nice so far. Even dl'd a spreadsheet that lists choices that are JP1 "tweakable." Interesting. Am I looking at what you speak of? Best, D

Re: [H] Universal remotes?

Name a < $100 that offers features like Harmony! Up to now only hacking JP1 remote interfaces which exist on remotes at the whim of OFA who does not want customers using them have been alternative to expensive Pronto type remotes. In fact It's getting hard to find them. Harmony on the other hand

who said I think you're making anything up? I said that your points don't matter to me and I told you why. Your response indicate a disdain for those who disagree with you. There are plenty of remotes on the market and you can easily get one which suits your needs. Going around calling others

Re: [H] Universal remotes?

I'm not whining you're just not accepting that I have valid points. You think I sit around making this shit up for fun? This is 10 years of my experience with remotes, yours clearly differs. Could care less if that fact didn't lessen my choices of features I need. If you do think I make this s

Re: [H] Universal remotes?

This assumes you a. have the remote, b. the function is on that remote. Lot's of descreet codes ARE NOT on remotes, others there's multiple definitions of the same button code depending on the device it's used with, and many have not made it into the Logitech DB because there is no button on any

None of these reasons impacts me in the least little bit. It took all of 30 minutes to set my Harmony One up for control my stuff and free me from constant remote hell. If I never need something in particular not on the user-community provided menus I can grab the device remote. I have plenty

Re: [H] Universal remotes?

Suggestion: Run away from Harmony! When Logitech bought them out they removed all advanced direct access to the remotes programming code. End result is you are at their mercy when it comes to getting codes that don't exist in their "community support" database (read: added by other endlusers b
