Hi Joe C5,
the first code works ("Cinema Studio B" for my receiver).

How did you get this code? Can you (or I, with your help ;-) ) do this with the other SoundFieldCodes ?

I and many other users would be happy !!!

casiomeier - I'm glad that worked for you, and yes anyone can do this :-) No rocket science involved. It might help to get a copy of the documentation for the pronto codes (on this site somewhere). However, here is the deal. If you will compare the one you found vs what I gave you there are two changes. One is the length of the commands (the oops part) which is the third word (in hex of course). You just have to subtract out N/2 where N is the number of words you remove. The next trick is to find all the commands. It is best done by breaking them up into single commands. These are the ones where the "larger number" (think of it as a pause) is at the end. You will notice what you started with consisted of about five commands of which the first three were the same (ignore small differences since they are usually caused by the capture device not being perfect). Take out one of the three repeats and fix the length and you are done. This only works for those weird Sony long commands, but it brings them under the mx700's limit.

Hi Joe C5,

thanx a lot for that explanation.

I will try that with a few example codes when I'm home from office.

I will post my efforts .. ;-)

Till then with best regards,
Wolfgang

YES YES YES !!!!!!!
It WOOOOOOORRRRKKSSSSS! On my MX-700.

Joe C5, what can I do for you? You helped me so much!!!

Next I will create a collection with all the SONY DSP codes and put them in a mxf file.
The button description belongs to my SONY STR-DB925. With other receivers it can vary.


Best regards and greetings,
Wolfgang

Maybe now you should change the title of this thread to "I jumped the gun when calling the MX-700 horrible"? :)

Yes,
I agree, the MX-700 is good to handle and simple in programming (not horrible). But in comparison with other remotes the MX-700 accepts not that range of code types like the Pronto or the DENON do.

But now I reached my goal to realize all codes within the MX ;-))

I'm glad that worked for you. As long as you are happy, that's what counts :-) I agree there are a few things which could be improved, but the MX-700 does what I need, and I have no complaints :-)

Hi Joe C5,
when I'm ready with the MXF file I will provide it in the files section (with pointing your basic help!!) as MXF, CCF and M5 for all users who have the same probs.

Thanx again,
Wolfgang

OK,

finished the CCF and MXF files. I uploaded them to the files section.

Best regards,
Wolfgang
