Interesting! Let me take another look at my info; I'd thought that while you'd never get a 1 or a 0 twice in a row, the "same as previous bit" value would be sent as many times as necessary to get through a sequence of identical bits...

Thanks!

Not necessarily. Substituting x for "same as previous", 11111 can be transcoded as:

• 1,1,1,1,1
• 1,x,x,x,x
• 1,x,1,x,1

The same for a line of zeroes of course

Although I personally fail to see a huge benefit in not sending the same sequence twice if the protocol is well designed, I think robthebold has hit the nail on the head.

Ah, well, the document I'd read (although extremely weak on specifics, sadly) seemed to indicate that the B&O protocol demanded that there never be a consecutive pair of 0s or of 1s. But I don't recall it demanding that there never be a consecutive pair of the third value...

Still, as you say, that would be logical, if there were any value in never seeing consecutive values. (I still don't really understand how beneficial that is; these particular values are "space encoded", meaning that they are sent by turning on the LED for a fixed amount of time, and then turning it off for a variable amount of time. If I recall correctly, a 0 is the shortest off-time, a 1 is the longest off-time, and the third value has a duration between the 0 and 1 times. You can't really get away without having some timing mechanism on either end, I think...)

I have recently misplaced the remote control for a Toshiba 40L1354DB TV. I tried the various Toshiba TV keysets and none of them work. I found that the Anitech TV Keyset 1 does allow channel up/down and volume up/down (but not eg power on/off). Any chance of adding this to Pierogi? TIA.

I've been using Pierogi ever since I got my N900 about 4 years ago. It's great to have a whole bunch of remotes in my pocket. I was using my HP48G to be my remote control before the N900, alas, I don't have my HP48G anymore....

Recently I've been getting some equipment with missing remotes. Unfortunately I can't seem to find keysets that work completely, so I ended up buying the actual or a work-alike remote.

The questions I have -
1. It looks like all the remotes are hardcoded into the binary, so it's not really possible to move buttons around or to make a keyset that has all the functions of a particular device on the same keyset that's currently on two keysets?

2. I ended up using irrecord on a full Linux box to record remotes that I can't seem to find on Pierogi. Is it possible to get these added? I need to test these lircd.conf files to make sure they work with the device, and I probably should submit them to the lircd project as well...

I just recorded:
Funai VCR (Sylvania?)
Funai DVD player (Symphonic)
Broksonic (CRT) TV

I recently also got a SV2000 DVD recorder/VCR combo. The two Funai remotes above appears to just about be able to control all the functions of the combo - having just one but not the other I'm missing half the features of the SV2000... The irrecord output looks a little weird and not sure if they actually can be combined into one file - which is weird as both remotes can power the device, yet the file looks very different for the representation for the power button... strange.

I can't remember if you added Nikon DSLR command already but I came across it in a dutch forum.

Can you do anything with these numbers:

This is the code for snapping 1 picture on Nikon DSLR.

I thought I did see the Nikon DSLR remote control already in Pierogi...at least I've used it before to trigger my D5100...

Has anything happened on the Mitsubishi AC front? Also, is the command line idea getting anywhere?

hi. can anyone suggest a keyset i can use for an Acoustic Solutions DS533 home cinema surround system. thanks!

The company have links with Goodmans so maybe start there?
