These codes don't seem to be learnable correctly (once learned, they don't repeat well). Is there a library of clean codes out there for the MCE remote?

Yes - there a topic at RC5000 forum about it :)
I'll send you those ccf when I will come to be at office tomorrow!

Thanks Eigeny, can't wait to get my hands on these codes!

That thread
[Link: remotecentral.com]
is about Streamzap remote that controls PC media player.

I've posted those CCF to you. If you have enougth time, please, check the commands, erase unused and publish it at this site! (I have never seen this gadget, so I can't do it myself :)

Thanks, where do I access the files from? I couldn't find them in the Files section.

Hmm... I have posted it to e-mail of your profile :(

Eigeny, sorry I must have missed the first mail you sent. Please try again on this address, it is the correct one. Spaciba!

Can i get a copy of the mce codes? I am haveing the same problems.


Thanks

I am trying to get my Onkyo Chad remote to learn the Media Center PC commands. This is not working properly. Could someone please send me a clean CCF file?
Many Thanks

Did you guys see this thread?

Note there is a typo in his registry path...I believe it is HidIr not idIr.

And also note that without the debounce, some keypresses may function oddly. Overall, it is a great fix, but if it doesn't work for you, go ahead and try the device or page swapping method. I tried device swapping before I heard of this fix and it works just fine...in fact the delay is pretty much perfect for entering channel digits.

The "do nothing code" technique works too.

In any case, the code generating tools by John Fine referenced in one of the other MCE posts are essential to solid MCE coding otherwise if you just capture/learn from the remote, you will have a mishmash of outputs from either of the two toggle states for each button.

I have a spreadsheet with all the Pronto codes for all the buttons plus the 4 undocumented commands discovered so far listed for each toggle state. If you need it, let me know.

Otherwise, get John's App as listed in this thread:

tintruder could I get a copy of that spreadsheet

What are the 4 undocumented commands? (Command number and meaning).
If it's easier to email the file than to answer the above question, send me a copy please.

John, You Got Mail.

For others interested in the quick answer:

072 Recorded TV
075 DVD Angle
076 DVD Audio
077 DVD Subtitle

...are the 4 commands not on the Philips MCE Remote that MCE understands.

If anybody finds more, I'd like to know.

Would you please email me your spreadsheet? I have struggled along with many on this media center and think I have it licked, but I would like to put together one all-inclusive ccf/pcf/zip and post it to the codes section as a special thanks to all you guys who understand this stuff. I'm good at intuition and substitution, but substitution would have done me no good without the body of information that you all put on this site.

I would like to add that I had a repeating key problem on my Up/Down/Left/Right when using the makehex.exe approach, so I modified the last word in the strings that gave me that problem, typically they looked like 09E0 and I make them 03E0. (I have no idea but I thought I read somewhere that the last word was the duration). It could be that, as computers keep getting faster, the codes behave differently. My PC is brand-spanking new.
