RemoteMaster Files

RMIR.v3.0.12-bin.zip is a full installation package for RMIR v3.0.12.  This is the first release since v3.0.10 as build 11 was for development purposes only.  The changes since v3.0.10 are:

1.  The included IrpTransmogrifier has been upgraded from v1.2.12 to v1.2.13 and correspondingly Girr has been upgraded from v2.2.12 to v2.2.13.  This version incorporates the protocol amendments and new protocols that were in the patch file rmProtocols.xml in RMIR v3.0.10.

2.  A new protocol, Amazon Fan, has been added to protocols.ini and is also included in the new IrpTransmogrifier.

3.  Support has been added for a new format for DSMs in JP1.3 and earlier remotes, first seen in the JP1.2 remote REM48TVB, signature 10531053.

4.  The RDFs for the REM48TVB and Niles R8L have been updated and one for the Atlas 1056 B04 has been added.

5.  A bug present since RMIR v3.0.0 has been fixed that caused internal Special Protocols created in these RMIR versions to be listed twice on the Special Functions tab when downloaded.

6.  The messages displayed when no matching RDF is found now provide links to the RDF-Development and RDF-Archive folders in a browser.

7.  The revised instructions.txt file for the JP1EEPROMSupport folder that adds the additional steps required if using the Arduino JP1 interface with Windows 11 is now included in this RMIR version.  They were previously posted separately.

8.  Certain error situations that would cause RMIR to crash are now caught and display error messages instead.

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 an earlier build of v3.0 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 RMDU or RMIR.  These protocols will then be loaded in all subsequent invocations of RMDU and RMIR until this item is specifically unchecked.
