I have just created a file for a Yamaha receiver in Sonance's IR library (made by RTI, version 2.0.0.160). I did it by copying and pasting hex code I had learned into a TS1000 into the proper spot in the Sonance Library. All the codes were several lines long (except two: see below).

I have now just tried the same thing with a Yamaha DVDS540, and it has not worked at all. The codes are, for instance:

Power (toggle)
6000 0073 0000 0001 0004 000c

Play
6000 0073 0000 0001 0004 002c

Stop
6000 0073 0000 0001 0004 0031

and the Sonance program says "unknown code type detected." The Receiver codes that work are, for instance,

Zone 2 On
0000 006c 0022 0002 0156 00ab 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 003f 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0040 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 003f 0016 05f3 0156 0056 0016 0e55

Zone 2 Off

0000 006c 0022 0002 0155 00ac 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 003f 0016 0040 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 003f 0016 0040 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0040 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0015 05f4 0155 0056 0016 0e56

And ah, yes, I remember now; I also had a couple of receiver codes that the Sonance program could not use:

Zone 2 On
900a 006d 0000 0001 7e81 ba45

Zone 2 Off
900a 006d 0000 0001 7e81 bb44

I so humbly (because this is totally confusing to me) ask for some help in this...is there some way to translate those short commands into the type that the Sonance Library can understand?
