No idea what S100 is, but maybe you could try adding that and then I can try it if works with the Media Receiver.

I'll put it on the list! It appears to be using the RC5 protocol, so no trouble there. But yeah, I can't tell either if it is in fact the MR300 or something like it.

Hmm, actually, just took a swing past the hifi-remotes website; it looks like they've got some rough decodes for a Deutsche Telekom "T-Home 300", but it isn't using RC5 protocol. :( I'll see if I can make heads or tails of their discussion...

I'm getting distances of at least 2 meters from most devices. Can you tell me what keyset you are using? Maybe I've got some settings wrong...

Just did some more tests and I was able to turn it on and off the first time easily with dvd set 3 ;) Then I turned the recorder on for the second time with some more effort, it requires much effort to properly recognize it , even from 10 cm distance ;) Then I thought I would also turn of with the power button on pierogi, but instead it muted again. Then after holding power button en moving the phone to find the sensor, which is really hard aiming compared to my Panasonic TV, the device(recorder) turned off in the end. So sometimes it mutes, and sometimes the powerbutton works like it should.

I know you kind of know that's something not right on the Philips sets, but I thought this might be valuable information. Have nice day, and thanks for the working remote for my Panasonic TV :D

I do have about a half-dozen "factory codes" for the LG TV Keyset #1, but I'm kinda nervous about putting them in the UI; you can really damage your TV if you don't know what you are doing. I suppose I could make a special "Do not use unless you know what you are doing!" window, or some such...

After todays update, got the Philips keyset 2 working for my Television :) Not sure if I was pointing my N900 in wrong direction yesterday. A wonderful intelligent app. Appreciate the way you (Copernicus) answer and support every single query on this thread. Hats off!

Thanks! :) And hey, by the way, if you get the chance, could you do a few tests for me? In particular, make sure the "Mute" button is working correctly, and if you hold down one of the Volume keys, that the volume will increase or decrease for as long as you hold the button. (I.E., I'd like to know if the repeat functionality is working.)

The Philips TV Keyset 2 and Philips DVD Keyset 3 are using the exact same RC6 protocol. If TV Keyset 2 is working fine, that means the problems mr_pingu is having must lie in the key values themselves, not in the protocol...

I am home I will test if my recorder acts on commands of keyset 2 ;)

works great thanks again
