  <pre wrap="">Hi guys,

For those of you who've bought a skystar 2 with the newer remote
(TTS35AI) may notice that the volume and prog up/down buttons have the
same IR codes as the four buttons in the diamond. My card arrived this
morning and after discovering this, I felt a little ripped off that I'd
been done out of four rather important buttons on my new remote. Feeling
that this can't be the end of the story, I cracked the remote open
(carefully) to see what could be done. It appears that the micro in the
remote is flashed with two button profiles, one for the TTS35AI and the
other for the 103TS103. The latter has all but the bottom four
(unlabelled) buttons mapped to unique codes. At the factory, a resistor
is soldered in one of two positions to set the button profile. So, all
you need to do is resolder the resistor, reassemble the remote and load
the new lircd.conf! </pre>
</blockquote>
I have the same remote, but using a USB dongle, and it comes across as
a USB keyboard, therefore not requiring lirc (I assume yours is a
serial port job?). It came with the Skystar, but I never used it,
mostly because my PVR350 remote was already set up, but also because I
noticed that there were few button/key codes and there were some
repeated ones. I can't remember what, but I suspect it is the same. Is
it hard to identfy this resistor? I'd like to give it a try but a photo
would help (thousand words etc) :-)<br>
