    Converting Pronto Codes for use with Beo5

    Hi,

    I have now had my Beo5 for about a month and thanks to this forum I already managed to configure it to 95% of my requirements.

    Now I would like to add 3rd-party support for my EyeTV decoder (product website) which can be controlled using the Elgato Remote. I have found a Pronto .ccf file at remotecentral.com and managed to extract the Pronto codes using ProntoEdit. Here is an example for digit 1:

    0000 006d 0022 0002 0155 00ac 0015 0040 0016 0015 0015 0040 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 003f 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 003f 0016 0648 0155 0056 0016 0e51

    And for digit 2: 

    0000 006d 0022 0002 0155 00ac 0015 0040 0016 0015 0015 0040 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0015 0016 003f 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0040 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0015 0015 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 0015 0015 0040 0016 003f 0016 0040 0015 0040 0016 003f 0016 0648 0155 0056 0016 0e51

    This is where I struggle. When I try to convert these codes using the Lintronic CodeLearner, the convert button is greyed out (I do not own their hardware). Is there any other way of converting the Pronto Codes to Beo5 codes, which I could then use as inputs for Keith's XML Generator?

    Any hints would be highly appreciated.

    Thanks and kind regards,

    JP

    Re: Converting Pronto Codes for use with Beo5

    A Warm Welcome to your first posting.

    Your two HEX Pronto codes decode to NEC protocol using a carrier frequency of 38Khz and a product device address of 45

    1 has a command code 0f Hex 03 and 2 has a command code of Hex 04

    The following is a conversion into an XML format accepted by the Beo5 Configuration tool:-

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <root stVersion="1.3">

    Please also see here for an older version of the Lintronic tool that works.

    Cheers,

    Re: Converting Pronto Codes for use with Beo5

    Keith and Frank,

    thanks very much for your warm welcome and quick response. I already found the link to the older version of Lintronic last night in the forum, however, I do not understand how to reproduce your results for my Pronto codes above. Looking at Keith's XML code, the main difference between the two commands is found in 

    stIR="NEC:GlobalManual=1#IRSEQUENCE=NEC#BITS=010111010101110111011111001000001

    stIR="NEC:GlobalManual=1#IRSEQUENCE=NEC#BITS=010111010101110100111111110000001

    How do I calculate these bit streams from my Hex codes using Lintronic? Apologies if the answer is too obvious, but I am really stuck here.

    Also, I noticed a difference in nColumnFinal which is set to "1" for digit 1 and "0" for digit "2". Is this difference intended and if so, what does it mean and where do I read it from Lintronic. I have about 12 commands to convert and would like to avoid bothering you with that any further.

    Many thanks,

    JP

    The binary 32 bit strings contain in 8 bit blocks the device address, then the inverted and reversed device address, then the command, then the inverted and reversed command.

    You said:-

    How do I calculate these bit streams from Hex codes using Lintronics

    My Comments:-

    The XML Generator only converts Lintronics timings to RAW format meaning it is an IMAGE copy only which is fine for static commands such as off and on. However, for protocols such as NEC about 50% of devices will ignore the REPEAT function, i.e. "Fast Forward" The Beo5 firmware has the NEC protocol implemented in the firmware which requires the binary string provided.

    As you have all your commands available in Pronto HEX format, I suggest you post them and I will convert them for you to a fully functioning XML file.

    You also said:-

    Also, I noticed a difference in nColumnFinal which is set to "1" for digit 1 and "0" for digit "2". Is this difference intended

    My Comments:-

    It certainly was intended. These are the positions of "1" and "2" on the screen. If you have the screen default of 4 x 3 meaning 4 rows and three columns, the columns are numbered from 0 to 2. If the number was the same, then both numbers would be on top of each other.

    Regards Keith....

    Keith,

     

    Thanks much for your reply and your generous offer to convert my Pronto codes. I have listed them below. Would be great to have those converted to a Beo5 xml file.

    Thanks a lot and kind regards,
    JP

    Re: Converting Pronto Codes for use with Beo5

    Keith Saunders:
    The binary 32 bit strings contain in 8 bit blocks the device address, then the inverted and reversed device address, then the command, then the inverted and reversed command.

    Keith, could you explain why the 32bit codes actually have 33 digits? Is the 33rd bit a check-bit and if so, is it the one at the end or at the beginning?

    I have just done some further testing and based on the two codes provided by you, the 2nd and 4th 8-bit-sequences are simply inversions (but not reversals) of the 1st and 3rd 8-bit sets. Con you confirm this?

    Sorry about all these quite technical questions. I am trying to figure out the composition of these codes to use more than one set of Apple remote control command sets with my Beo5 and Remote Buddy on my Mac. This way, I can assign 12 or 18 commands, i.e. 6 from the original command set provided with the Beo5 Config Tool, and then another 6 commands with a slightly changed device address, as Remote Buddy distinguishes betwen remotes with different IDs.

    Thanks a lot for your help so far. Kind regards, JP

    You can download the produced XML file HERE

    Extract the zip file to C:\ and the XML file will be placed into the correct directory in the configuration Tool.

    All digits are pre-assigned to the numbers screen.

    All commands not in the screen have been assigned to hard keys

    Command FS is not a NEC protocol command and was converted to RAW and may not be a valid command.

    Regards Keith....

    Re: Converting Pronto Codes for use with Beo5

    Keith,

    Many thanks for your support on converting those Pronto codes. I really appreciate it.

    I also did some more testing and found a very good solution that might be interesting for other people with similar setups.

    I have a BV8-26 connected to a Macbook Pro via HDMI. I have also got some BL3s connected to the BV. I am using Plex as a mediacenter for movies and music and EyeTV as TV tuner and recorder. I was looking for a seemless solution to control EyeTV and Plex using my Beo5.

    On the Mac, I run Remote Buddy. As RB distinguishes between Apple Remotes with different IDs, you can actually assign those physical Apple Remotes to logical remotes in RB. I found 3 different Apple Remote comand sets on the web, which gives me 18 distinct commands. You can assign those commands to whatever you want in Remote Budddy. I wrote a few Applescripts that allow me to switch between EyeTV and Plex and some other specific tasks. The end result is a setup that seemlessly integrates EyeTV and Plex without the need to navigate through Remote Buddy's on-screen-display

    The real advantage is that you actually do not need an external IR receiver. There are 256 different Apple Remote IDs, which gives you 1536 distinct commands that can be recived by your Mac's internal receiver and put to use in Remote Buddy.

    If this is of interest to anyone else, I am more than happy to share my Beo5 and Remote Buddy configuration. Also, If anybody has caputred the IR codes of their own physical Apple Remote, it would be great to share those to increase the number of distinct commands available. I have the command sets for IDs 33, 122 and 167.

    Regards,

    JP
