|

Hi There - thanks for the recommendation, although what I am really looking for is the remote code for the slingbox so I can change the channels remotely.
Do you may know a bin file for me to upload to my slingbox which may be compatible ??
I tried HTV 1 and 2 and not worked properly.
Thanks much |

Sorry for the delay, been on an extended vacation. Is 'A3' the manufacturer of the box ? |

Thanks. Unfortunately I can't help as I get the IR codes from the Logitech Harmony IR database and that box is not in there. |

if you had the original remote, you could capture the command for every single button and then someone here could help you. |

True, but I would hazard a guess that the remote is in the Far East and I am in the UK. |

I think the OP is in the US, and that is a good point. carnevallemarcelo79, if you're willing to buy a JP1 learning remote, you could capture the codes and then we can use that info to build a BIN file.
You can get the OARUSB04G for $17.34 on Amazon
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HNIHM5S/
Or $12.95 on ebay:

When the correct command shuts off the unit, you then save it for next time. This will lessen the guessing game on the very specific commands you are after. |
Is your thinking that if he gets the keychain remote and finds a working code, you can then program that same code into one of your keychain remotes to capture it? Reading the description on eBay, it sounds like this remote just works with TVs, so I doubt that it will work with the OP's STB. _________________ Rob

I used one of these remotes for an older chinese media player i was given without a remote. In my case I just wanted to know what the ON/OFF command was. It may or may not work in this situation but the cost is only 99 cents.
If it does work, the OP will have to figure out the command, system ID etc by capturing the signal somehow (arduino, usbirtoyv2, etc)
Really, there aren't many options if you don't have a remote.
You can try the guessing approach.
Here are some commands to try: Code: | Device = 00
Command = 12 ;mute
Device = 00
Command = 1E ;power
Device = 00
Command = 0C ;vol +
Device = 00
Command = 00 ;vol - |
here are some more from another remote: Code: | Device = 00
Command = 1F ;Vol +
Device = 00
Command = 43 ;Vol -
Device = 00
Command = 02 ;power |
On all of my Chinese media player remotes, the device code = 0. I have not seen another unit that wasn't 0. They all use NEC1 protocol. I have others if any of these don't work.
Without a remote, it's like finding a needle in a haystack. |
