timbooo Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 As per the title, I'm trying to read in a remote control for a (God help me) karaoke machine. I have created simple learned-IR drivers before so I know the procedure. I'm basing it off a DVD player (to get the shuttle controls, number pad etc) and I've got all my extra commands added in, I've been through the learn process (using an EA-5) and everything goes as it should. It asks for the 2nd blast, gets it, saves, moves on, looks great. At the end of it I had a look at the codes and they are all the same and very short (0000 006b 0000 0001 0002 1293 if that's of any meaning at all). Is this remote of a weird kind that the EA-5 can't understand? Is this a frequency thing? I'm considering trying to use a Logitech Harmony or an RTI learner kit and a T1-B+, then firing those at the EA-5; I have a weird recollection of doing that before with success. but if there's a way that requires fewer steps I'm all ears. I did contact the manufacturer (VOCALSTAR) a few weeks ago to ask if they had a spreadsheet of the codes, they didn't have anything for me.

sonic30101 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I have ran into that with some B&O gear before because the frequency was an oddball or something like that. I think I learned it into a urc mx900 then pasted the hex codes into composer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbooo Posted November 18, 2019 Author Share Posted November 18, 2019 Thanks looks like I'll have to go that route too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
