Sure! The Compro looks fairly easy, I'll go ahead and add it to the list. The Genius looks a little harder, it's using a protocol I haven't seen before, but I'll give it a shot. :)

Another update is now on its way up to extras-devel. This one includes the triumphant return of the "Record" button to Pierogi, via a new Program/Record control panel. :) Also included are bug fixes for the Select Keyset by Device window (thanks to sixwheeledbeast), and a first pass at keysets for Compro, Kaon, and QNAP.

a) Mode
b) temperature
c) Timer - ON and OFF
d) Vertical and Horizontal Swing

why not to add a search to the remote key select
thanks in advance :)

Re: [Announce] Pierogi - a universal infrared remote control app
 

The QNAP codes seem to work, only tried the basic ones but good work man!

I've been looking into codes for my Magnum (cheepo) tv, but only got far as that it uses rc5. I tried all Philips remotes but it only does some unrelated things for some keysets.

Is there a debug system in pierogi to play with codes? I know a bit about rc5, having once written some very lowlevel code to interact with it.

Edit: found this: http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/magnum/ :)

Re: [Announce] Pierogi - a universal infrared remote control app
 

Like a search box at the bottom?

This would make it easier to find things from partial model numbers. Due to most manufactures including the size in the device name.
'32' would then bring all the models with '32' in the device name, most will be 32 inch TV's.


At the moment (v1.1.1) the search feature is press a keyboard key for the first hit and then keep pressing for the rest. So....

As you press the "S" key.
Saba > Sagem > Samsung > Sanyo > Sharp > Sky > Sony > Starsat
Then start at Saba again.


This is the same in all the forms. Which IMO can cause problems, take the Select Device for example...

If you press "Q", QNAP comes up with no hits (this is true because there are no Devices in the wiki yet.)
Then if you press "W" Western Digital comes up all is well.

If however while on "Q" you tap the screen by accident pressing "W" no longer works. This is because the the keyboard is now searching the models (not the makes) but you don't realise because nothing is highlighted/changed on screen!
This happens with all the forms.

If you understand what is going on and tap the models again the lookup appears, which is annoying IMO.

@Copernicus
On Select Device form Any/Any, I don't think the top device should be 'Any Asrock HT330'; small bug/typo? ;)

There is a new "A/C Control Panel" that you can bring up by going to the "Manage Panels" option in the menu, and this should have all the rest of the A/C controls in it. I should probably enable this panel whenever you select an A/C keyset. :)

Re: [Announce] Pierogi - a universal infrared remote control app
 

I haven't yet gotten that far. :) I'm still messing around a bit with the actual structure of my IR control mechanism, so I haven't really been concentrating on stuff like configuration files or debugging input... But there's no reason you couldn't use the LIRC server if you wanted; it is quite easy to test out codes using their system.

And I'll put the Magnum on my list. :)

Ack! I forgot, I was going to do this earlier. I didn't even realize that the combo boxes were getting the keyboard focus. I really do need to test this stuff out more. :) Let me start on this again, and see how much work it would take to implement.

Thank you, yes, the model should not be "Any". :) (I'm not sure why I did that.)

10/10, would install over 9000 times.

This app is better than any other IR remote I've used for the N900. Bravo.

All we need now is a better IR LED hooked up to it!
