If you edit the above in your first post and link to the wiki page, the community can add to your hard work.
Testing 0.6.3 at the moment, I see what you mean about the volume button. It works great on the main screen, but if you aren't on the main screen you have no idea which keyset you are using.
Ideas on a solution?

First of all, thanks for this great program. Works fine on my Samsung TV. I have a crappy free to air satellite receiver made by fortec star. To give you an idea of how crap it is, there's an option on the main menu for "sysem upgrade" . Not holding much hope for that one but here's hoping. Shame the n900 can't receive ir signals, it was going to be a suggestion. Thanks again.

Trying to compile a list of compatible devices.

Anybody who is unsure how to edit the wiki, if you want to PM the information to me, I can put it up.

When I get home, I'll do that. Need to try on my pioneer amp as well. Love it.

Oh wow, that _is_ a fancy air conditioner. And yeah, the keyset I've currently got doesn't match the keys on the remote, but the config file from the hifi-remotes website looks like it might be a match. (It looks like each key on the remote can take on three or four different values. This protocol will be fun to decipher.
EDIT: This protocol will be _real_ fun to decipher. If you're interested, take a look at the real IR experts scratching their heads over it in this thread.

qwazix , i'd be interested in your thoughts on things.
PM me if you want to collaborate on something like this!
They have been able to get the n900 to scan a human brain for cryin out loud, i don't see how this can't be possible.
On the other hand though, fcam allows "shutter" speeds up to 1/1000s so if the IR led is powerful enough to be visible at such shutter speeds there could be hope.
So the question is where is the bottleneck? Does the 30fps limit come from the sensor, the video encoding by the cpu or storage?
If we could reduce the videostream to 1 pixel, and put the ir led near enough to fill the FOV, could we capture video at 1000fps?
Maybe we should dig in the fcam driver. The unfortunate thing is that I don't have very much free time, and I got one or two started projects I'd like to finish...

I'll put it on my list. (And unlike Dish, it'll probably just take me ten minutes or so to add them.

I think I have found another small bug. Just by playing about.
LG TV Keyset 1
In Utility the Sound Mode Button functions as the Picture Mode...
But the Sound Mode in Secondary Buttons works perfect.
Why is Sound Mode and Picture Mode in both menus?

You have been busy ... I only put two TV's in a few hours ago.
Testing 0.6.3 at the moment, I see what you mean about the volume button. It works great on the main screen, but if you aren't on the main screen you have no idea which keyset you are using.
Ideas on a solution?
