NECx-f16 protocols?

We have an old LG DVD/Surround player (LH-d6230) up at our cabin. I brought home the remote and 'taught' it to my Insignia NS-RMT8D21 (URC-3680) remote with hopes for downloading the signals and uploading them to another JP1 remote (Charter 1060) to use at the cabin. I had just used RMIR to do that ...

Just to follow up on this, I did end up buying the FTDI cable on Amazon ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014GZTCC6/ ), and it seems to be working well. Windows 10 recognizes it and assigned a driver from 7/5/2021 (2.12.36.4). The plastic for the individual DuPont plugs appears to be polystyrene ...

Thanks for the quick response... I figured that seemed like too easy of a solution. Looks like I'll jump onto this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014GZTCC6/ bandwagon. Since it's FTDI, I might be able to use it as a CHIRP interface as well. Thanks again for your feedback - it's great to be able ...

USB-to-RS232 adapter cable

Hi:

When looking through my stash of computer detritus, I came across this USB-to-RS232 adapter cable: https://www.cablestogo.com/product/26886/1.5ft-usb-to-db9-serial-rs232-adapter-cable .

It apparently uses the Prolific PL2303HDX chipset, and Windows 10 recognizes it as a prolific device using ...
