Before using the above code (which should work and not
be converted) You may also want to try setting the 'Duration'
of the converted IR code to something like 0.2s.

Lyndel, THANKS FOR THE HELP, this worked perfectly.
Which worked? Changing the Pronto Hex so PENG wouldn't recognise and compress it? Or extending the duration? Or it took both? Or you only tested with both?
I think the compressed form will send the same thing as the long form.
It seems more plausible that the important issue would be duration.
I expect that specifying longer duration for the compressed form would be the same as for the long form. But I'm less confident of that.
.2s is a strange choice. That is about enough for 2 frames (in NEC1 protocol) and 2 frames is very little. I have no idea what the rounding rules are. It could round to 1 frame or 3 frames. How it rounds may depend on almost any other factor (firmware version, Peng version, etc.). Maybe you want to try longer than .2s
