Consumer Electronics Control Wiki Welcome to the Consumer Electronics Control Wiki on Remote Central. This is a user-created section with information on how to best control various consumer electronics devices (such as televisions, A/V receivers and Blu-ray players), as well as details on how those devices behave during operation.

For example, you'll learn whether a particular television can use infrared, RF, RS-232 or some other control method, how long it takes to power on and switch inputs, if discrete IR codes are available, as well as other useful tips, tricks and commands to make integrating this device into a universal remote control or other control system faster and more reliable.

Thanks for updating this entry! It’s great to see the detailed specs and control info for the Sony BDP-N460. I noticed the “Power On” timing is listed as 999.99 seconds—might want to double-check that, as it seems unusually high. I’ll also try to upload any discrete IR codes I have to help complete the entry. [Link: cantorlaurastein.com]
Hey everyone, thanks for keeping this Wiki updated! It's super helpful. Seeing the discrete codes listed is great. I'm wondering if anyone has experience really pushing the limits of the RS-232 control? Sometimes I feel like I just want to kick the buddy when a device is being unresponsive, haha, but obviously, robust control protocols are the more professional solution! Especially helpful to get power and input switches working flawlessly. https://kickthebuddy.lol/
This is super helpful! Thanks for putting this info together. I've been trying to get my older Onkyo receiver integrated into my smart home setup. The TCP/IP control is exactly what I was looking for. Figuring out these command strings can be a bit frustrating though, sometimes I feel like I just want to [url=https://kickthebuddy.lol/]kick the buddy[/url] and start over. Glad someone else has already done some of the hard work. I'll definitely check out that avforums link!
