Hello ! I think I have the same issue as Dibou, I used to use the IR Blaster plugin with a Squeezebox Touch and a Denon receiver (RC5) and it worked really well. I have changed my receiver to a Emotiva UMC-1, since the LIRC site didn't have the conf, I generate one from WinLIRC, I tested it with the SqueezeIR plugin for the Controller and it works fine. It seems to be using the NEC protocol but not in the same way as the template available on lirc site, here how it begins: name UMC-1 bits 16 flags SPACE_ENC eps 30 aeps 100 header 9015 4403 one 596 1643 zero 596 519 ptrail 576 repeat 8967 2212 pre_data_bits 16 pre_data 0x4FA gap 41182 repeat_gap 600445 toggle_bit_mask 0x0 It is recognized by the plugin, but it doesn't seem to blast anything, is there an error in the conf file, or this type of remote does not use NEC protocol and thus is incompatibe with the plugin ? Thank you for your help !
