One For All has had *years* to get this right. The Slim Devices / Squeezebox codes have been well documented for 'a long time' (http://svn.slimdevices.com/slim/VpªK}ËÝ1ëk/server/IR/Slim_Devices_Remote.ir?view=log). And the difference has been discussed on these forums 'for years' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?p=10580). Nothing has stopped OFA from adding the proper codes. If your One For All remote is JP1-compatible, see 'this thread' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=63757) for more info and a Remote Master file for teaching your OFA the proper Squeezebox codes. I've programmed three cheap ($15 USD) OFA remotes with the proper Squeezebox codes (plus discrete power on/off) and they work fine. I think it's unfortunate that Logitech doesn't support JVC codes on Touch (and Radio), and also unfortunate that the Touch marketing has glossed over some SB3 features that Touch does not yet have (or never will have). But you should blame One For All for not giving you proper Squeezebox codes, not Logitech. -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ Free plugins: 'AllQuiet' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/AllQuiet.html) 'Auto Dim/AutoDisplay' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/AutoDisplay.html) 'BlankSaver' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/BlankSaver.html) 'ContextMenu' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/ContextMenu.html) 'DenonSerial' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/DenonSerial.html) 'FuzzyTime' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/FuzzyTime.html) 'KidsPlay' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/KidsPlay.html) 'KitchenTimer' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/KitchenTimer.html) 'PlayLog' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/PlayLog.html) 'PowerCenter/BottleRocket' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/PowerCenter.html) 'SaverSwitcher' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SaverSwitcher.html) 'SettingsManager' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SettingsManager.html) 'SleepFade' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SleepFade.html) 'StatusFirst' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/StatusFirst.html) 'SyncOptions' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SyncOptions.html) 'VolumeLock' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/VolumeLock.html) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77705
