RemoteMaster Files

RMIR.v3.0.1-bin.zip is a full installation package for RMIR v3.0.1.  The changes from v3.0.0 only affect XSight remotes, but there is also an addition concerning the URC-6440 and OARUSB04G remotes.  This build fixes bugs related to icons for XSight Touch/Color remotes.  There were also issues with all XSight remotes, so including the XSight Lite/Plus, with the import of certain .rmir setup files for these remotes created in earlier versions of RMIR and correspondingly with the download of these remotes if they contained such setups.  These are now fixed, as are corresponding issues with RMDU for upgrades for these remotes.  The addition is a new folder, URC6440_OARUSB04G_LinuxSupport, containing files and instructions for making the URC-6440 and OARUSB04G mount automatically in Linux when the remote is connected to the computer.  This is based on an article in the JP1 Wiki and is intended to simplify implementation of the procedure described there.

This build is installed simply by unzipping this package into an empty folder.  Please note that for an installation to work correctly, this folder must not be read-only.  For a Windows OS this means, in particular, that it should not be unzipped into a subfolder of the Program Files folder. If you want to preserve your settings from a build of RMIR v2.14 or from v3.0.0 then, after unzipping the package, copy the RemoteMaster.properties file from the installation folder of that version to that of this new version.  In this case, however, you will need to use the menu item File > Set Directory to change the locations of the RDF, Images and AddOns folders from being in the old installation folder to the new one.

Note that protocols.ini includes no-repeat versions of certain protocols, primarily intended for use by Slingbox files.  Due to the specialized nature of these versions, by default they are not loaded when RM or RMIR is opened.  If you need these protocols, check the item "Show Slingbox protocols" in the Options menu of either RM and RMIR.  These protocols will then be loaded in all subsequent invocations of RM and RMIR until this item is specifically unchecked.
