Well, those would use the Sony BD codeset, and I don't
know if it's a wise idea to cross-link codesets like that
(so now the remote conflicts with DVD *and* BD players).

I agree with Daniel, I shouldn't use codes of any recent devices to maintain cohabitation, at least by default. The Sony BDP-S300 remote is obviously the closest thing to the PS3 remote.

I used PS2 codes for 2 reasons: first the device is ageing and the DVD player was not its big feature, second even the designer of USBIRX3 also used PS2/Sony DVD code set.

In mid October I contact Logitech to try to convince them to clone the PS2 codes in a new device and next create the missing codes. Besides the RGBY key I also asked for Power On (discrete) and Power Off (discrete). Needless to say they were not very receptive. They see me at the time as an end user. I'm pretty sure this can be done in few minutes by the tech support. I probably haven't knock at the right door, at least at Logitech.

BTW my IR decoding is valid only for Sony scheme, see [Link: users.pandora.be] for the big lines.

One thing I’m studying right now to provide support for RGBY keys is to be able to handle BDP-S1, BDP-S300, BDP-S500 (I have to check if their codes are exclusive). A key selection at PowerOn would memorize which one to use (obviously a model not own by customer). I doubt someone would have in the same rack: PS3 + BDP-S1 + BDP-S300 + BDP-S500! Could it be a reasonable solution?


For the record here is the PS2 code I’m handling:
