I am currently using sling box HD-Pro and can not control the remote.

everything is fine (I can see, hear the cable output) except I can either turn on or off the cable box or change channels.

I've built a test remote for you at :

Try that.

BTW I assume you have used the digital camera test to confirm the blaster is firing ? And also experimented with placement of the blaster ?

Still waiting patiently for some feedback from you. Did it work ? I can't upload it to the public forums until I know that.

thanks for your help.

I did both testing and it seemed that everything looks ok.

I also received a new blaster as I thought 1st one did not work. Still, I can not change chanels.

I downloaded your files and put in the folder you advised but I can not understand what I should do next. (below 'logical keys")...it is too technical to understand....

*** quote *****

I have mapped all the logical keys.  Extra functions have been mapped to the Custom Menu on the remote as follows:

A
B
C
D
Favourite
Adance
InputNext
MyDVR
Replay

If you wish to modify the remote I have also included the .rmdu source file for RemoteMaster.
For instructions, see:

OK, although I am not sure what you find too technical?

On the on-screen remote there is a Menu button at the top, if you tap on that the bottom line is called 'Custom' and that offers a further drop down list of Custom 10, Custom 11....   All I said was that I had put those buttons (A,B,C,D..) onto those Custom options, as the buttons do not exist on the generic remote.

Make sense ?

Sorry, what don't you understand about that ?  Or have you read the article and decided it is too technical ?

And is it just the Channel Up/Down not working ?

Cheers
