<DIV><FONT face="Arial" size="2">If you've
got a programmable remote, like a pronto, you could set it up to use the
slim AND JVC remote codes. Just remove the mapping to one of the remotes
and the slim won't respond to any of those codes, BUT you should still get
a xAP message produced.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Arial" size="2">So you can
essentially double the number of codes read by the server, whilst only
responding to a few on the slim. The rest can be spare codes ready for
whatever you want :-)&nbsp; It's so neat, anyone would think it was
designed this way :-)</FONT></DIV>

feedback is very interesting. >Not tested this yet. If you alter the
jvc_dvd.ir file in slimserver and remove the labels for the buttons, you've
got unique "blank" buttons being reported over the CLI. >So
you can launch a xAP message via IR without affecting
playback.>Presumably you could pick up that IR message and use it to
trigger something more useful, like an X10 A1 on xap message.--EXACTLY! Got
it in one there! It opens up some interestingpossibilities indeed. And it
doesn't respond to many buttons when theSlim is 'off' which can be useful
too.S</TT></BLOCKQUOTE><!-- **end egp html banner** -->
