Re: Remote DDAR control - It's here and it works



I've just done the patch for the DDAR and it's brilliant!
It's so fast - no latency at all.  The browser remote is amazing - pointing
and clicking on the relevant buttons even works - even the power button -
so
I can turn on the DDARs anywhere in the house and select the music, volume
etc... as if I was stood next to it!

This is a must for anyone with a DDAR

I wonder if there'll be a patch to display the DDAR facia in the future?

Simon

PS. receiver.arf may be mercury.arf on some software - just use the
tarmerge
software as normal but merge mercury.arf with the patch and rename
receiver_new.arf to mercury.arf.  Remember to unplug your DDAR so it
re-initialises.
