[QUOTE="Rob Hexenmeister, post: 1260684, member: 113164"] CyberSimian, Many thanks for your considered and comprehensive reply. However, I can confirm that the problem with the volume bar predates my purchase of the FLIRC and Sky remote, and I have a proper RC6 compatible remote control and IMON receiver built into the case which exhibit the same behaviour. The problem seems to have appeared since the "upgrade". It was working fine with 1.17 which is what I had previously. In fact so much has gone wrong since the upgrade, I wish I hadn't done it.
