Problem Learning From Sony 1271 Remote

I'm using the API directly. Learning and playback of my receiver codes works just fine, but playback of "learned" codes from my Sony 1271 projector remote don't work with the projector. The codes seem to get learned fine in either UUIRTDRV_IRFMT_UUIRT or UUIRTDRV_IRFMT_PRONTO and when they are transmitted the light flashes, but the projector does not respond.

The "ON" UUIRTDRV_IRFMT_UUIRT learned code ends up looking like this:
F3ER019063181819301930193019181930191819181918193019181930191819301918

The "ON" UUIRTDRV_IRFMT_PRONTO code ends up looking like this:
0000 0067 0000 0010 0063 0018 0018 0019 0030 0019 0030 0019 0030 0019 0018 0019 0030 0019 0018 0019 0018 0019 0018 0019 0030 0019 0018 0019 0030 0019 0018 0019 0030 0019 0018 0331

Let me know if you need any other information.

Thanks!

The ON code looks fine, in fact, here's the PRONTO code taken from RemoteCentral (which you can try), which is remarkably similar to the one you learned:

0000 0066 0000 0010 0061 0018 0019 0018 0031 0018 0031 0018 0031 0018 0019 0018 0031 0018 0019 0018 0019 0018 0019 0018 0031 0018 0019 0018 0031 0018 0019 0018 0031 0018 0019 0329

When transmitting, what repeatCount value are you using? Make sure you try with a high value of 10 or so at first in case the code needs to be sent for a longer period of time.

Do you have to hold the power button for a long time on your remote?

That was it... I was using a repeat count of 1. 10 worked for "ON" but I'll probably have to play with some of the other counts, as a held key for some commands does extra work.

Thanks for the fast reply!

No problem. Just curious, did you set the repeat count to 1 or did it default to it? I seem to recall I set up the plugin to default to 4.

Thanks,

I'm calling the API directly and was passing a 1. 10 works fine... I haven't tried decreasing to find the threshold for the projector.

Thanks
