  4. Programming is recorded, but not remembered correctly

    in GUI Bugs

    Posted

    Thanks for all the info and so sorry for my delay. The records from the remote look great. "my_flirc_log.txt"

    One issue is the interkey delay between packets. It's currently 107ms. It should be 70ms, this would certainly cause an issue. I believe it's because the buttons were not being held down while you are recording. It uses two packets and if it doesn't see the second packet, it defaults to 107. This is the time between packets.

    I also see two play/pause buttons being recorded. 

    https://flirc.io/config/

    One is probably not supposed to be there and is probably recorded noise, which is causing issues.

    I've also disabled all the built in profiles other than the one you are using (kodi), to avoid presses from noise.

    The noise is environmentally driven. If it's by a window, a plasma screen, an android device with an IR camera, etc.

    Regarding sleep, any button matched in the table will wake up the device. If you want it to just be a 'single' button, record the 'wake' button in the app, this will ensure only one button can wake up the machine.

    Try the attached and let me know if it's better. Remember to do something about the play/pause duplication.

  10. Apple 4K + Device Parameters

    Yeah, I'm having the same issue. Neither Apple TV code works. The front panel blinks like it's seeing the IR signal, but nothing happens.

    I have only ever used apple TVs at home. I've never had an issue. No buttons work? Are you sure you are mapping them correctly on the remote? I'm not aware of any setting since IR is enabled on the remote to do HDMI CEC volume control. 

    Can you post your configs?

    I'll have it added.

    I think the monitor is rate limiting it, there is no way the remote can do it. So what I did was altered the code.

    TLDR Version:
    NEC codes send a repeat pulse. I removed the repeat pulse and increased the time between packets. So rather than the monitor thinking you are holding the button, it thinks you are pressing the button multiple times while holding it down.

    Long Version:

    I put the pronto code in IR Scrutinizer:

    image.png

    The second pulse at the end in NEC codes is a 'repeat' pulse. To save power, rather than turning on the LED for the entire code again, they do that small 'bloop' at the end. This says to the device, 'repeat what you last got' as long as it's within a 40ms. This small two pulse signal will continue while you hold the button down, and the remote never sends the original longer packet until you press the button again.

    So I converted this into raw timings in ir scrutinizer:

    image.png

    You can see the second frame on the end [+8967,-2235,+552,-96111][]

    This is a positive pulse of 9 ms, negative pulse of 2.2ms, positive of 0.500ms, and a negative of 96ms. The 96 ms is the time between this pulse, and what will become the next repeat pulse.

    I removed this and increased the last negative number on the list so it was much greater than 50ms. Remember, the last number says, what is the time between 'packets'. By increasing this enough, we can trick the device into thinking you are lifting up the button and pressing it again.

    So here is the result

    image.png

    Note, the last negative number is now -140ms.

    And back to pronto:

    Some further reading makes me believe that the Pronto codes I have generated are good. The issue might be to do with rate limiting as jason mentioned. I have no idea :(

    Edit: I found this greyed out section in the skip app about timing, could it help if I could use it?

    image.thumb.png.9b53977f33bf5a9a0ce0d2e300924547.png

    That wont do anything unfortunately. I have an idea. Let me try altering the pronto code.

  15. Unable to install any version of the Windows app

    in General Questions

    Posted

    I'm really sorry for the initial problems you had. I will try and make the process better.

    I'm a bit confused how you went about fixing it. Did you ever have a previous version installed prior? Sometimes, the early beta's can cause an issue like this. I often recommending doing an uninstall before the new beta. 

    So all you did was instal the early version over and then do an upgrade?

    Again, sorry about this. But glad and relieved it's working.

    Can you please let me know the results of each? Posting any log files as described earlier would be of great help.

  21. Onkyo TX-RZ50 and Apple TV 4K (2022)

    Haven't found an Onkyo code thus far that maps all the buttons on the TX-RZ50 RX (RC-972R remote.... same remote is used for the TX-NR7100 and TX-NR6100).

    The 2 Apple TV device codes are not working with my ATV (2022). ATV sees the IR but does not change anything. I had posted on the Skip1s forum and see another user with the ATV is seeing the same issue.

    Where is the other forum for the Apple TV? Can you post your config?

    Jason, I do understand your choice, but you also could compile a "normal" windows app for who want, like me, simple use your remote without go crazy; I am months that have your remote and I am not able to use it .....

    This is a normal app, it took 2 years. I can’t write one “another” overnight. Did you try the last version? http://update.flirc.tv/skipapp/pr/998/SkipApp-0.9.80.6209-mg-hid-broker-test-build-x64.msix?token=skipAppUpdate

    The profiles you are adding on skip are already on flirc. You don’t actually need to learn/pair them. You are overwriting them. 
     

    The one plugged into your PC, go to advanced settings. And disable all the built in profiles except kodi. 
     

    For the one in the shield. Plug into the pc and go to advanced. Disable all the built in profiles except the shield
