[QUOTE="Keren, post: 85584, member: 25521"] What kind of ir reciever are you using? I tried to set up my remote with a askey ir reciever and tested it under PC remote control ([url]http://www.pcremotecontrol.com/info.html)[/url]. It has a simple setup for serial ir recievers and a built in viewer. The best I got was that 4 diffent Keycodes worked, but on every Key. (e.g. up,play,4,6 where the same Key) The Problem is that your remote sends commands with 36Khz (Phillips RC5) using 14 Bit per command using repeating commands (the diffent length you've been seeing) A serial ir reciever picks up the signal using 38,4/57,6.... Kbits a second. Either you cut of parts of the command or get gaps. Because of the repeating signal it will look a little diffent each time. Personaly I gave up on this and bought a x10 remote for 20€. [/QUOTE]
