has anybody set up the ir translate to use an IR sony romote, such as one that comes with the blank face stereos for vehicles?

I'd like to set up the IR translate to use the forward and back buttons to control the next previous functions, but wanted to know if anyone else has tried it.

thanks,
Utna

Some of the more recent Sony remotes use a high-frequency IR band that isn't readable by the standard consumer-IR input of the empeg. Do you have an exact model number for that Sony remote so we can check?

Note that you can go into Hijack's "Button Codes Display" screen, and if the remote works with the empeg's IR sensor, you will see the values appear on the screen and can therefore create your own IR translation table, you don't need our help.

More information here and here.

it's a rm-x112 HiR

That high 'R' scares me.

cool, thanks, looks like i need a newer version of HiJack

yeah, it doesn't work.

suprise suprise.

i needed the newest hijack anyway, why test old stuff etc.
