Re: volume control...

Dean,

To make it transmit codes for volume, you first need to set it up for
a

JVC receiver, then set it so the volume controls operate the receiver
when

in DVD mode. Like this

S RCVR 0 1 8 ENT

DVD

S RCVR VOL+ ENT

Sounds good.

Note the MAS3507D also has bass/treble
controls...

It's on the list... :-)

Regarding support for additional IR codes:

It's unlikely because part of the IR decoding is currently done in
the

Xilinx - it's a rather bad design for legacy reasons (not using the
right

pins on the PIC for the right things, the
first SliMP3 prototypes didn't

have IR).

Essentially the IR codes have to look "sorta like" JVC
codes, WRT to the

width of the pulses, and the measured part being the low part of the
wave

and not the high. There are several other codes that would have
worked,

except that they didn't implement all of the buttons on the
rm-v301.

We are going to have a custom remote eventually, so the plan is to
support

our own remote plus one or two standard IR codes so that people can
use

3rd party remotes if they want.

Sounds fine. I might go remote shopping to find a more
programmable one, in the mean time.
