The issue isn't getting very far. I have a Sony DVD player to test against, but my problem is that I'm not having any problem with it. I'm able to send pretty much every command I've got, and at a decent range (6-8 feet from couch to player).

Yes, absolutely, I would like as much info as possible about the devices that are not working -- if I can figure out what is different about them, I may be able to determine what I'm doing wrong. Thanks!

I got a sky+ box from a friend so replaced my comedy fortec star box. With the new update, I can get channel up to work sometimes but not always, but great. It's working on a dish receiver.

edit. I have to be a few inches from the box. With the tv, over 3' and still working.

Nice I said, LG TV Keyset 1 works with this one . Then I tried to change the Input to switch the monitor to TV mode. I am not sure, I might have pressed another key more, but suddenly the TV/Mointor was in flashing mode

After that, no matter which keyset combination we tried, we were not able to take it out of flashing mode, even with the original remote and any instructions we tried from searches in internet. I had to leave with after 1 hour of trial & error, and still have no face to give him a call and ask if he solved it.

Just had the same problem but NOT WITH PIEROGI.
On a LG M227WDP TV/Monitor i found LG TV Keyset 1 worked perfect changed inputs no probs.
Then we tried to learn a friends V Box remote to control the LG's volume. It went into a odd input (just fuzz), and showed the version number as a screen saver.
The only way to get out of it was pressing EXIT and MENU together on the original remote and then selecting another Input.
The Input key did nothing it this mode. Pulling the mains did nothing.

I guess there's possibly something odd with these LG TV/Monitor's. It can't be Pierogi's fault if a Virgin Media Remote can cause the same/similar thing!
I couldn't make Pierogi do the fault.

Added the working Virgin Media Boxes to the device wiki, thanks.

The amp that's not working is:-
Sony AV Reciever STR-DN1000 - Remote RM-AAP042

I'll put them on my list! BTW, I think the Beko TV Keyset 1 is almost identical to the values in the Bush config file, you might try using that one until I get the next update out...

Sigh. These satellite receiver guys just know how to make my life hard.

I'll keep trying.

Thank you! I guess it may just be dangerous to try and control LG monitors with remotes, period... May need to give the user a warning about any devices that behave badly with remotes.

The amp that's not working is:-
Sony AV Reciever STR-DN1000 - Remote RM-AAP042

Thanks! Looking at the similar RM-AAU014 LIRC config file, I'm starting to think that I may possibly have something mixed up with the shorter 12 and 15 bit Sony codes; my DVD player is using just the 20-bit codes. I was certain I had all the codes working exactly the same way, but I will take another look...

Mine is ~2m; however, sometimes I watch the TV from a larger range. There, my regular remote works while the N900 still can't.

BTW, I am reporting a problem in a separate post. Thanks!
