Wow, that was fast. Great & thanks a lot.
The menu items are there and no smoke out of the DVD player...
Now I need to get hands on a DVD with different region code first.

Thanks a lot for your support!!!

Ok, understood: the reason is, that I am already using twi devices with 00 27 id. The * behind it tells me, that I changed something? Which I really do not remember... I will post the RMIR file. Great, that you will have a look at it!

Hi,
I had a look at the Arduino project and used rtl_433 to get an idea of the protocol - I saw something, but right now my lack of understanding does not help me in interpreting it. As I understand right now, the xsight rf protocol is not decoded yet. I doubt that it makes sense to work on a ...
