 Posted: Thu Feb 23, 2006 11:13 am Post subject: Looking for a code to activate most/all keys of Cinema7 |
 |
|
Hi. Taking the advice that there are no stupid questions, I decided to post my stupid question:
Can someone tell me of a code that has most, if not all, of the keys for my Cinema7 remote activated? I am trying to find one with as many buttons active as possible to use in conjunction with my Mythtv system which is controlled by lirc. I have had success, but seem to be choosing blind when searching for a code that gives me the maximum number of buttons to use with my Mythtv system.
Also, if anyone has a lircd.conf and .lircrc file to go with the mystery code, that would be greatly appreciated too!
Many thanks... |

IIRC, CABLE mode has the most buttons, so your best bet would be to create an upgrade using CABLE mode that has all of the available buttons defined. You can use keymoves to program the remaining buttons if you like.
You can use any protocol/device code combo that you like, just as long as you don't accidentally pick a combo that matches one of your existing devices. I would suggest using the NEC2 protocol with a device code of 123 and a sub-device code of 210 (these are just random numbers).

I was indeed making that assumption for exactly those reasons.

Thank you for your input. I've used the remote (after soldering in the header) with my JP1 cable. I was really looking for a device code that had a lot of the buttons already active and then I could tweak the remaining buttons that were not being used. I'm not sure if I'm asking the question correctly though. The truth is that I'm pretty lazy and am looking for an easy solution if one exists.
Thanks for your time... |

You have 2 options:
1. Build a new upgrade as I described earlier, which should take you no more than 5 minutes or so.
or
2. Keep trying CBL codes until you find one that has enough buttons defined to meet your needs.
I'm guessing that option 2 will take longer than option 1.

In fact, just to show you how quick option 1 is, I did it for you...
The following upgrade has all of the buttons available in CBL mode programmed:
Upgrade Code 0 = 07 D0 (Cable/2000) MythTV (KM v8.37)
5A 05 7E FE FE FD 21 21 B4 AF 2F CF 4F 8F 07 47
FB 87 7B BB 0F 67 27 C7 A7 F7 3B E7 B7 37 9B 1B
EB 77 D7 57 97 17
End
Alternatively, the following upgrade not only has all of the CBL buttons defined, it will also program the remaining buttons using keymoves:
Upgrade Code 0 = 07 D0 (Cable/2000)
5A 05 7E FE FE FD 21 21 B4 AF 2F CF 4F 8F 07 47
FB 87 7B BB 0F 67 27 C7 A7 F7 3B E7 B7 37 9B 1B
EB 77 D7 57 97 17
KeyMoves
26 F3 07 D0 DB 27 F3 07 D0 5B 2F F3 07 D0 6B 30
F3 07 D0 AB 35 F3 07 D0 2B 36 F3 07 D0 CB
End

|
|
I tried Rob's device upgrade but had a lot of problems learning the IR signals produced on my Linux box (via serial IR interface).
So, here is my own (working) version. As the Linux mythtv system will learn the output from the remote, you can pretty much assign any EFC/OBC numbers you like, so I did it sequentially (EFC sequential). The remote I've set up and which is working now is a URC-8811.
Anyway, here is the upgrade, I'll also append in the lircd.conf file I created, and also the ~/.mythtv/lircrc file (note there is no dot at the start of lircrc!)- the lircrc file is used by mythtv 0.19 for native LIRC support (no need for irxevent).
Upgrade for One-for-all remote URC-8811 (and similar)
| Code: |
Upgrade Code 0 = 15 A4 (VCR/1444) URC-8810 Indulis' mythtv VCR 1444 (KM v9.01)
5A 00 FE FE FE E1 00 F6 F6 46 66 06 26 C1 E1 81
A1 41 61 01 21 C0 E0 80 A0 E3 20 42 60 83 40 82
E2 02 A2 A3 43 62 C3 00 63 23 03 22 CD
KeyMoves
22 F3 15 A4 C2«sleep» ¦3B F3 15 A4 8D«pip on/o
ff»¦20 F3 15 A4 AD«pip swap» ¦3C F3 15 A4 4D«pi
p move»
End

Upgrade for One-for-all remote URC-7560 (and similar)
| Code: |
Upgrade Code 0 = 25 A4 (VCR/1444) URC-7560 Indulis' mythtv VCR 1444 (KM v9.01)
5A 00 F6 FE FE 81 00 F6 F6 46 66 06 26 C1 E1 81
A1 41 61 01 21 C0 E0 80 A0 03 40 20 C3 E3 83 A3

I'm not sure there is a question in there. What are you trying to do? What are you asking help with?

No question here from me, I spent some time figuring out how to get my JP1 remotes talking to mythtv, so though I should document it for when someone searches for an answer.
Do you think it should go in a different section? Happy to rewrite it and put it elsewhere!
Actually, if someone could create a files section in the Device section PVR-Mythtv I'll put it the files in there, and once that is done, clean up my post above.

Why not just zip together all the component files and save it as "MythTV" in the PVR folder? Just a suggestion.

...It was just that I noticed that there were sections for Tivo and other PVRs, and thought I'd follow suit. So I'll zip the files up into the PVR section instead.
Nice to be doing something with the JP1 remotes again... its a testimony to how good the product and the tools are that I haven't had to do anything to the remote for 12 months+

I made seperate sections for those two just because there were so many files for them. The problem was particularly acute for Tivo where not only were there so many files, but there are many different brands of Tivo, so the files weren't even all together alphabetically.
