Thanks for your interest! It's unfortunate that there's no real standard for descibing ir protocols and it takes a bit of lateral thinking to work out exactly what's going on but I'll try to explain a bit...
The RAW_HEX protocol that the applet uses takes a great big long string of parameters that looks a bit like this: "0x0000ABCD 0x800001234 0x00001234 0x800001234"... It is essentially raw binary data that says the led modulation frequency is 0xABCD Hz, turn the led on for 0x1234us, then off for 0x1234us, then on again and so on. This is the format that all the protocols ultimately end up like as it is the format supported by the hardware diver in the SBC (look for testir in the developer forums for more info). What is published in LIRC is the command codes and protocol specification (the bit at the top that details how the 1's and 0's are encoded). You need to combine both bits together to get the raw hex, or write a protocol conversion function to do it for you. That said, from the LIRC header info, the protocol looks very similar to what I have called Denon (compare the header info with http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/denon/RC-861), so you could try this: ROOT ; ACTION ; NAD ; ; ; DENON:135:124:37 ; -DENON:135:124:200 I took the liberty of adding a "-" before the repeat code as you probably only want to turn the amp off once ;-) I'll explain how I got those seemingly random numbers... The predata from LIRC (0xE1E3) is the bit-reversed first and second parameters (LIRC seems to assume all codes are sent MSB first which is not the case). The command is the bit-reversed last parameter and then the same again but inverted as a checksum: Device = 0xE1 > binary 11100001 > bit reversed binary 10000111 > decimal 135 SubDevice = 0x3E > 00111110 > 01111100 > 124 Command = 0xA4 > 10100100 > 00100101 > 37 checksum = 0x5B > 01011011 (inverse of command, calculated by SqueezeIR). Command = 0x13 > 00010011 > 11001000 > 200 checksum = 0xEC > 11101100 (inverse of command, calculated by SqueezeIR). If the denon protocol works for you then that should be all the info you need to convert the LIRC codes into something SqueezeIR can use, and we can add NAD to the list of supported devices! I may write a gizmo at some point to convert LIRC formatted codes to RAW_HEX as LIRC seems to be the place to go for codes! hope that helps. -- indifference_engine ------------------------------------------------------------------------ indifference_engine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66795 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
