As mentioned on this thread the Learn button inside the plugin Action UI didn't work for me. So then tried the OS X version of the iLearn application. It would interpret the codes and show them, but if I then tried to send that IR code (either from Cynical Caché or the iLearn application itself) the A/V equipment ignored it. Note that when pasting the code into the action I assumed I should use the generic tag format like this:
- Code: Select all
<generic:0000 0067 0000 0022 ...
correct?
Next, I tried to find IR codes online. Yikes! What a mess. RemoteCentral.com has lots of codes but not as many in the generic pronto hex format. There are also remote specific files that include button layouts and the codes, but I'm not sure if there is a Mac utility to easily extract out the codes.
Note, however, that I did find some IR codes online and they did work from Cynical Caché. So I know that the send IR action does indeed work and I have my iTach setup and wired correctly. I'm just having difficulty because I cannot get my iTach to learn via Cynical Caché or the iLearn app, and I'm not having much luck finding codes online.
Does anyone have any tips on an easy way to learn IR codes from a Mac (with iTach or GC-100 + IR learner)? Maybe I'm just doing something incorrectly, although I would expect iLearn's Test button to be able to send out the IR code it just received successfully.
Does anyone have any good Web resources for IR codes or Mac utilities for converting different formats? RemoteCentral seems to be the most popular, but I was surprised how many IR codes are missing for the equipment I have. Some of the IR code files are really stripped down any only include a dozen or so commands, of course none of which are the ones I'm seeking.
