Mini M8S Android TV box
Posted: Mon Mar 26, 2018 11:24 pm
Tonight was my first night using RemoteMaster with my ARRX18G.
I have a Mini M8S Android TV box, and wanted my ARRX18G to learn the entire remote from the M8S.
On the remote I made a new device called "LEARN" and learned all the button on the M8S's remote. The "LEARN" device works fine and the ARRX18G will control the M8S this way. I just wanted to be able to rename the device and customize it more, so I wanted to convert it to a device upgrade.
The problem is that I can't make it convert properly to a device upgrade so it can be a permanent device instead of a learned one. From the Learned Signals tab, I can see that all of the buttons I taught the ARRX18G use NEC1 protocol and 128 for the Device with a blank Sub Device.
I used the "Convert to Device Upgrade" button to convert the learned signals to a new device called "Streaming Box", and it seems to have converted the data properly, but that the new "Streaming Box" device does not work. My M8S does not respond to it at all. The "LEARN" device that I created on the remote itself still works.
What did I do wrong? Why won't the "Streaming Box" talk to my M8S?. It looks to me like all the data from the learned signals was pulled over properly and is properly assigned to functions and buttons. The only thing that looked suspicious was the Sub Device setting which automatically generated to -1 initially. I tried setting Sub Device to blank, -1, 0, and 255 but none of it made any difference.
Here are some screenshots that may help.
Thank you in advance!!
