I have been able to locate through various sources (ccf) the discrete codes for formatting my philips LCD TV (42pfl7432d), however it seems like everything I have found does not have the new full compliment of formatting options.

The one in particular I am looking for is for the "Unscaled" option. All others have been accounted for (i.e. 16:9, 14:9 auto, widescreen, etc.)

Anyone know what this code is? RC5 is fine ~ I can convert it to full Hex using Makehex for my MX-700 remote.

Thanks in advance!

I've stared at the Makehex tool readme, and although I'm normally all over this stuff, my brain isn't putting it together. I want to convert some RC5 to Long Hex for my MX-810, to control my Philips LCD Ambilight TV.

I found these:

EXT1 (YUV) RC5 3, 4 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0004
EXT2 (SCART) RC5 0, 57 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0000 0039
EXT3 (SCART) RC5 3, 56 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0038
HDMI1 RC5 3, 57 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0039
HDMI2 RC5 3, 6 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 007B
HDMI3 RC5 3, 6 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0006
Front RC5 3, 5 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0005 (not sure/not tested)
Side RC5 3, 58 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 003A (not sure/not tested)
TV (antenna) RC5 3, 72 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0048

Auto Format RC5 3, 61 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 003D
4:3 RC5 3, 117 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0075
14:9 Zoom RC5 3, 80 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0050
16:9 Zoom RC5 3, 62 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 003E
Breitbild RC5 3, 116 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0074
Super Zoom RC5 3, 126 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 007E

Furthermore, there are the following working discrete codes:

Power On RC5 0, 63 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0000 003F
Power Off RC5 0, 61 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0000 003D

=========
Because they all say RC5, I assumed I would use rc5.irp:

Device=5
Function=0..127
Define T=0

Protocol=RC5
Frequency=36000
Time Base=889 '888.89 = 32 cycles at 36Khz
Message Time=128 '128 times TimeBase
Zero=1,-1
One=-1,1
Prefix=1 'Officially -1,1 but starting with off is silly
First Bit=MSB
Form=;*,~F:1:6,T:1,D:5,F:6

====

I'm guessing that the Function is the number listed by the RC5 code?

So, for: EXT1 (YUV) RC5 3, 4 / 5000 0000 0000 0001 0003 0004

Function=3..4

What is the device code I would use for Philips LCD? How would I have found that without asking someone.

Now what do I do with the hex itself? If you can walk me through converting this one, I will convert them all and post them back so not everyone has to go through this.

Thanks!

The codes you have listed are actually in two notations. The numbers after the slash, starting with 5000 is the short form of Pronto hex code for same code listed in front, starting with RC5. For example for EXT1 (YUV), 5000 means RC5 protcol, 0003 (second from the end) is the device number (3), and 0004 (the last number) is the function number (4).

To generate the long form with the info that you have, in the irp file, change the "Device=" entry to the number after RC5 and leave the "Function=" entry to "0..127" (it means generate all the codes for functions 0 to 127). After Makehex generates the .hex file, open it up in a text editor and go down generated code to find the function number, and the long form is the series of codes below that. For the example above you will see the entry:

Device Code: 3 Function: 4
0000 0073 0000 000B 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0040 0020 0020 0CC5

The code you need starts from the second line.

Since you have some codes with device=0, you will have to run Makehex again with "Device=0" in the irp and find those set of codes.

I'm not familar with URC remotes, but I think you can use the universal browser to import the hex codes, or for some, you need to make a ccf file with the hex codes to import using the universal browser. I think you need utilities like IRPanel or Hex2CCF to do that. You can find them here.

FINALLY!! Thanks for the reply. Someone probably needs to add that to the readme.txt of the Makehex. As promised. These all worked for me! I actually had to step through some of the codes to find them, as they didn't match up with all the ones posted here.
