JP1 Remotes

my sling remote doesn't allow me to skip to another disk or disks... i looked through the sling community and got here but couldnt find codes for the unit here either. is there one ? where is it and how can i get it and use it etc....?

Well, finding the codes is just the first step. Are you already familiar with
(1) how to use the JP1 tools to create an upgrade, and
(2) how to convert it into a Sling-usable BIN file, and
(3) how to then modify the .cfg file to allow you to select this new upgrade for your Sling?

If the answer to (1) is NO, read the "Beginners, Read this Thread First" sticky post (linked at the bottom).

If the answer to (1) is YES, then try THIS UPGRADE for a Sony DVD megachanger (there are a couple more in the File section, as well), which has a disc skip/select function. It provides the following:
disk skip + EFC 177, OBC 062
disk skip - EFC 175, OBC 061
Disc 1 EFC 034, OBC 064
Disc 2 EFC 030, OBC 065
Disc 3 EFC 032, OBC 066
Disc 4 EFC 028, OBC 067
Disc 5 EFC 035, OBC 068

For number (2) and/or (3), if the answer is NO, then read the FIRST (sticky) POST in this forum about upgrading your Sling files.

(and if the answer is YES, then you should be all set, right?)

i found a work around until sling adds my unit to their system.
in the setup:
choose sony
choose dvd
choose other
choose code 3
finish the setup steps.
you are confined to "previous disk" and no menu to go directly to the disk you want but it works for now.
i am creating a database for my movies that will be locally held on my laptop so i know the disk number and movie name correlation.

i do appreciate all your help however.

In case anyone else is searching and it isn't clear, there is no specific CX777ES file in the file section, but DVP-CX985V works for CX777ES. If it doesn't work for you, make sure the CD 1 switch is selected on the player.
