A Shot in the Dark
jj727uk:
Very easy to open, 2 screws and then just unclip it, Ive taken 2 pics, one of each side, sorry for the poor quality..
Looks like a resistor set up...but hey, what do i know?
Chronon:
Yes, it appears so. Perhaps it's using a four point probe configuration? (I notice it has 4 leads attached to it.)
jj727uk:
I'm happy to work on this and make it supported...can someone point me in the right direction what I need to do next

You'll need to figure out what signals the remote sends when you push a button, and then figure out how to read them in on the M:robe. Finally, you'll need to write a driver for rockbox that reads in the signals from the remote and makes the appropriate actions happen in rockbox.
Chronon:
I think the M:Robe 100's own remote uses serial communication (it has an LCD screen). If that's the case, then it may not be possible to communicate with this analog remote. I don't know enough about what connects to those pins in the M:Robe 100 to say for sure, though. Look into whether it's possible to do a resistive measurement with the pins in the M:Robe 100. If they only send/receive digital signals then I don't see a way to make this remote work.
