JP1 Remotes

[jeajea]

I have a Philips DVD5990 DVD player that I can’t turn off in a macro on an extended Atlas 1056. The same macro works on a non-extended 1056. I tried pauses before and after the off command so I am fairly sure it is a duration/number of repeats issue. The upgrade that I downloaded from this site uses protocol RC-6. The IR and RMDU files are here

My workaround was to swap it with a Panasonic from another room that uses a different remote

Jim, This protocol is a little more complex than most. Most of the time you can pick a value from a dropdown box, and that's it. This protocol is an assembly code file, and requires a little bit more work. In this case it was just moving a value into the repeats register. Other times you need to actually put in a counter to force a certain number of repeats.

I made it do "08" repeats, but I think 3 would be enough. You can change the number in bold to find the minimum value needed. Experiment with what works.

Upgrade protocol 0 = 00 58 (S3C8+) PB v4.01
47 93 41 8B 13 CE 05 08 08 00 DE 00 00 00 00 00
CC D0 52 05 35 01 A8 04 68 07 2C 08 CF 10 08 10
07 DF 10 08 10 07 90 C6 FB 03 B6 08 03 2A ED 76
00 01 6B 03 B6 04 F0 E6 10 02 E6 11 04 E6 0D 08
8D 01 46
End

If you want to explore this in PB paste the upgrade in decode window and press the Decode button to see what the assembler looks like.

Tip: When creating an upgrade, always include ALL functions from the oem remote, even if you never plan on assigning them to a button. Complete function lists makes an upgrade more helpful to others.

Thanks Vicky
With the upgrade protocol the macro turns the player off with a count as low as one and without using any pauses. I think I will set it to three to be safe.

The Philips discrete on and off codes I found don’t work with this player. The play button doesn’t do anything when it is off. The open/close button will turn the player on and open the tray if it is off.
