On another note, I have worked out all of the Pronto codes for my BenQ EW3280U monitor. I am attaching my json file to this post: BenQ-EW3280U-TV.json
One problem I have left is that the volume up/down buttons don't send a continuous signal.
Do they work as you expect with the regular remote? It's possible they are doing something on their end to rate limit it.

hmm, doesn't sound right. Can you save your config and post it?

I'm using macOS 13.4.1 and wanted to check the Admin Mode
Your suggested Terminal command returns "zsh No such File or Directory" when I use

Mac Instructions:
In a terminal: echo -e "{\n \"showAdminPanel\": true\n}" > ~/.config/SkipApp/config.json

I turned on Show Hidden files and my home directory is devoid of any /.config subfolder.
Where else to look?

do this first:
mkdir -p ~/.config/SkipApp/ -

Hello, I've got my new Skip 1s mostly setup and I think this will be a suitable replacement for my Logitech Harmony, but I've got 2 questions
- In the On function for activities, the only thing that doesn't seem to be working is the LG OLED TV switching inputs. And it's odd because if I assign HDMI 2, etc to an individual remote button, it works as expected. Just not in the On sequence. Is there a reason for this?
- I have a FLIRC USB to control my PC, and my Nvidia Shield. Thing is, it appears the individual buttons for each FLIRC are making both devices "respond." How do I tie each FLIRC USB to the specific device?
Thank you.
I think the TV needs more time to turn on, so make sure the power is first in the sequence, add a healthy delay by clicking on the TV ON button in the macro to expand it's settings, and then increase it experimentally and let me know what it ends up being if that works.
Regarding both devices responding. Seams both devices have been 'taught' the same codes or you are sending out the same code for both devices. It's the same as if two identical TV's are in the same room, they'll both respond. So to remedy, make sure to use different codes for each. You can add an arbitrary device that's not in your room to Skip, and then teach the other flirc this new device.
Let me know. -

I have Yamaha TSR-7850 receiver that controls all audio and video input/output to my TV. I just got the new Skip today and I have found that this established receiver does not have any codes available in the setup app. (https://usa.yamaha.com/products/audio_visual/av_receivers_amps/tsr-7850/index.html)
I am dead in the water from the very first thing I am trying to setup. How do I get this to work, should I put it right back in the box and return it?
We'll get it added.

Ok, sanity has returned. So the issue I thought I had removed the old remote I had created as I couldn't see it in the brand list, imported yours and then selected the tv remote again, but as the file you kindly created was assigned to the audio group not tv....so I ended up selecting mine repeatedly (I had tried twice to create a remote file, and had actually only deleted one of them!! more later)
So now using the right code from the audio list, all of the ones assigned codes seem to work, but I did find one key missing totally - "OK". It was in the transcript I sent over, but as we have discussed before its so easy to miss one when you are cut/pasting codes. It is there the old file but I have copied below if that makes life easier for you.
"OK"
0000 006D 0022 0000 015B 00AD 0015 0016 0015 0015 0016 0015 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0041 0015 0016 0015 0041 0015 0041 0015 0041 0015 0041 0015 0041 0015 0041 0015 0016 0015 0041 0015 0041 0015 0016 0014 0016 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0041 0015 0016 0015 0016 0014 0016 0015 0041 0015 0041 0015 0041 0016 0041 0016 0015 0016 0041 0016 0040 0016 06C3
So if that could be added, and perhaps changed to a TV that would be great and happy to try again - as looks like we almost have it sorted - thank you.
The other bit of feedback, the list of brands that have been imported is a little odd, and you can't see the last one, if the list is longer than the page - which by default it is, I deleted a few that I don't use, and now I can see the end of the list, with white space below, I'm able to see the last remote added and can delete it.
Hope that helps, sorry for the confusion over which remote file I was trying, but maybe in a future update, that brands list could be looked at, and the list scrolling down, include a few blank lines, just to push up that last entry.
Thanks again, its is much appreciated.Okay, I'm adding that and posting to this next release

Hi @Nathan, yes it's something completely different. IOTA Enterprises Ltd. is a British brand.
IOTAVX is probably the name of their lineup and the SA3 specifically is their stereo amplifier. See here:
https://www.iotaenterprises.co.uk/products/iotavx-audiophile-stereo-amplifier-sa3
It comes with a remote that features buttons for their amplifier as well as their network player NP3.
The remote can also be seen on the product page (5th image in the slider).
My JSON file includes only the buttons for the SA3, since I don't have the NP3 and was feeling a bit lazy. :)
If necessary I could scan the other buttons as well - but I couldn't test them. (However all SA3 buttons worked first try.)
Nice job, and thank you. Looks great and I'm going to add this to the next release tomorrow.

I have two laptops that get moved around so I may use either one at any particular time.
Logitech Harmony app allowed me to either of the 2 Harmony remotes I owned to either of my laptops to modify programming. I believe it is based on signing into my account.
I expected to find the similar ability with the Spike 1S and its Skip app. Appears not as my already named / programmed "Sunroom" remote needs to be named and setup from scratch on my other laptop.
As slick as the 1S is I hope the ability to read the configuration FROM the remote will be added ASAP. Or a way to cloud synchronize the setups
thx

Yeah, that’s definitely planned.

I can add the Element TV, but when I add my Apple TV remote the 1S will control both the Apple TV and the Element TV at the same time. The JBL soundbar still isn't working.
Please let me know if the file works, also the TV and Apple TV responding at the same time is because your TV has CEC control enabled. What's happening is you are using the TV for navigation, but with that enabled, the Apple tv is responding.
So do either one of two things:
- Turn of CEC control
- Add an apple TV and assign the apple tv to your navigation button
I would do #2.

Perfect, I recently released a tool called irtools. Run it from a terminal with a flirc:
On the mac:
/Applications/Flirc.app/Contents/Resources/irtoolsOn windows:
Program Files\Flirc\irtools.exeLinux:
should be in your path along with flirc_util, in /usr/local/binRun with the following option:
irtools decode -lOpen up a text file, note the button and create a comma delimited file that looks like this:
CURSOR UP, 0000 006D 0022 0002 ....
CURSOR DOWN,0000 006D 0022 0002 0152...Post that text file and I'll convert it to a JSON file for you.
Thanks Tony.

As promised I dug out and re-setup an esp8266 with an IR receiver. That setup happily picked up the remote, and gave me the pronto codes for it. Then with a copy of the Manhattan file you created as a template, created the attached file. I don't know all the coding options so I've stuck this into Misc group. I also initially noted the file didn't import, and then when I checked it was due to the oddities when the codes were captured, reduced it to one key, slowly adding each until I found the failed one. If this import process is to hang around, maybe more error reporting would be useful (e.g. button code X invalid for example).
When added to the remote, and sure most people with these will know, the Light adjustment is odd, the icons suggest low/high, but mine seem to be one button for light on/off and the other just adjusts the level, if you keep pressing very very slowly adjusts the lights brightness level from Max to Min and back to Max.
Not sure if there is a long/held press option coming, but this is an example of where it would be useful.
All that said it controls the fan speeds perfectly, lights do adjust. Now just going to ponder how to add that to the remotes in a format I can remember (if we can expand the buttons available when you use of the colour dial or something else would be useful for climate options)
I hope this is useful to the community.Thank you for doing this, I'm going to add this to the code database for the next release.
I like your idea with the color wheel. Let me thin about that...

Jason, many many thanks. This works!
Additional question: Is there a way to export an existing device in the database as .json? So that I could copy/create a new .json with all the commands to not have to add a second device just for one command? and of course to share it, respectively you could add it to the database?
If you let me know what you are missing, I'll create a new device and get it incorporated in the next release. But yes, @liambrown is correct. Post anything that helps you as it may help others.
