I've got an All In One 8910 remote, does anyone have a file that I can
use to program an MCE remote? It's been a while since I've used ir.exe
and the JP1 interface but I believe it's an .RDF file that I'm looking
for???

I think some are getting some help via customer support..

"OFA customer support upgraded the 8910 with code 1272 for use with MCE."

I'm not sure what they can do over the phone that I can't do with a
remote in hand... anyone have experience with that?

Thanks,
