he he, me and the missus were round her sister's the other night and i was using qtrreco and tvbegone to mess with the cable box and the tv.

took her a while to realise that it was me with my phone! at one point she was blaming the cat for sitting on the remote.....

Very good :)

What kind of TV is it? Chances are there is a standard remote type out there... Try some of the ones that are in the irreco library.

I played with Qtirreco at home now. Built me a remote for my HDTV+Receiver. It works, but from more than 2m it requires extremely precise targeting and the N900 has to be held at the same height as the IR receiver. Also my Sony Receiver seems to have slightly better range than the Sony HDTV. I guess N900's emitter isn't the strongest....

How can someone use qtirreco in a restaurant for example? I mean I spent more than half an hour searching to set up qtirreco for my own tv. In a restaurant you need a network connection, and to find out the model of the tv which is difficult... :confused:

network connection = 3g plan with 5gb data... remotes take up nothing

most tvs have a generic remote nowadays... like my panasonic viera, or the LG tv i spoke about... I just searched for the most generic looking remote for that kind of appliance

in this case it was 50PG6000... 50 is probably 50 inches, i usually look for LCD sizes like 32, 42, 46 etc... they aren't specific, but they usually work...

I used the LG one to turn off about 13 TVs in JB hifi last Thursday... some either didn't respond or didn't get my signal...
