 |

I record the ir signals in CCF format.
here is the file:
http://hansonweb.com/digitv.ccf
or
http://hansonweb.com/digitv.zip
I'm not sure how it works exactly, there seems to be
many devices inside the CCF file, and I recorded it over the
"digiTV" device.
So is this something that can be converted for slingbox upgrade?
What's my next step?
thanks for the help |

I assume the device has digit functions.
Almost all RC-5 code sets use the standard OBC numbers for digit functions. So you just need to find the device number.
Probably you could kludge an upgrade that would let you test one digit OBC in all RC-5 device codes. Once you have the device code, you can test the other way to find missing functions.

So it does look like John's guess was correct as the CCF decodes into RC-5 device=30 and digit OBC=digit. |

All right, then. A ccf file is something we can deal with. The next step is to decode it using decodeccf.exe.
If you download and unzip that program, and read the readme, you will see that you simply drag your .ccf file onto the decodeccf.exe program, and it creates a .txt file.
Then, you simply open that .txt file in a spreadsheet, like Excel, and you get a display of every signal in that ccf file. Cleaning it up and deleting those signals that were NOT learned to "digiTV" yields:
| Code: | Protocol Device OBC Key
RC6 40 12 {action}
RC6 40 33 Now!
RC6 40 32 =+od
RC5 30 1 1
RC5 30 2 2
RC5 30 3 3
RC5 30 4 4
RC5 30 5 5
RC5 30 6 6
RC5 30 7 7
RC5 30 8 8
RC5 30 9 9
RC5 30 0 0
RC5 30 12 Menu
RC5 30 32 Exit
RC5 30 63 `Power_Toggle
RC5 30 23 OK
RC5 30 18 R
RC6 40 110 G
RC6 40 111 Y
RC6 40 112 B
RC5 30 19 `B1
RC5 30 18 `9E
0000 0067 0000 000D 0001 029E 0001 029E 0001 002B `CA
RC5 30 34 `Up_Arrow
RC5 30 21 `Left_Arrow
RC5 30 24 `Down_Arrow
RC5 30 22 `Right_Arrow

Clearly there are few inconsistencies here. the function learned to the 'CA key did not decode, whilst the function learned to the '9E and R keys is the same. I suspect that the R button learn is incorrect, since G, Y, and B are all RC6:40 and NOT RC5:30, so I would re-learn those questionable buttons.
In RM, it is easy enough to build an upgrade from these data. You will have to decide, however, whether or not you need ALL of the functions, since your Prediwave uses two different protocols, RC5 and RC6.
If you want to combine all of the functions in a single device, you have to use the RC5/RC6 combo protocol, which uses a very large protocol upgrade (140 bytes) that I believe your Slingbox cannot handle. So if you can live (you may have no choice) without those 6 (likely 7) RC6 functions, you build an upgrade in RM using the Slingbox as your remote, selecting the RC5 protocol, and entering the functions and OBCs as listed in the chart above. Assign them to the buttons you want, and then select export to binary file and add that BIN file to your Slingbox, and select it on your Slingbox.

I think I should explain one aspect of DecodeCCF output:
| Code: |
RC5 30 63 `Power_Toggle
RC5 30 19 `B1
RC5 30 18 `9E |
A CCF file uses a font that DecodeCCF can't access (or at least I don't know how). That includes some special symbols specific to remote control use. Where I know what the symbol usually means, DecodeCCF replaces it with a name such as `Power_Toggle with the back quote to indicate it was really one symbol in a special font. Where I don't know the meaning, DecodeCCF just gives the Hex value from the font, such as `B1
BTW, if someone wants to tell me appropriate names for some of those symbols, I'll add that to DecodeCCF.
| Code: |
0000 0067 0000 000D 0001 029E 0001 029E 0001 002B `CA |
Probably obvious from what Capn Trips said, but I want to make sure you understand that one was learned badly so there is no valid signal there at all, as distinct from R that was learned well but we think you pressed the wrong button on the original remote when learning R. |

I didn't really create those CCF file, but instead I used an existing CCF file, and my program allowed me to learn over those buttons, so the RC-6 commands probably were the old remote code, and the RC-5 codes probably were the prediwave signals.
The template doesn't match my remote 100%, so there were some unlearned or old command from the original CCF file.
I will try follow the step from the postings. I couldn't download the decodeCCF program from the software section, but this file works now. Again thanks for the help, I will try to get it working using just the RC-5, which should work..(hopefully)
thanks again! |

ok, it is RC-5, and it's not JU, it's PL. for some reason the ir version says 2.0, which I thought is 1.2.
Anywayz, I did the upgrade and it works now!
when I get a chance, I will try to learn all
commands and complete the remote..
Thans for all of your great help! |

Hi, did you ever get the remote codes for the prediwave done?
Thanks, Bob
