I have a USB-UIRT like in the Wiki tutorial "Controlling your living room with EventGhost"
Why is it that the received IR code format is very simple like
USB_UIRT.804A500E1F0
where as the transmit IR codes are much longer
0000 006D 0022 0002 0157 00AB 0016 ...
Is there a program that will convert the received format to the transmitted format and the other way around? Why is the transmitted format so much longer
Thanks,

Transmit IR code format different from receive IR format
Re: Transmit IR code format different from receive IR format
This question probably should have been posted in the plugins forum. I figured that the codes were standardized and would apply to all IR devices rather than just the USB-UIRT. I did find this post that gives some insight: http://65.36.202.170/phpBB2/viewtopic.p ... b025e17c10
So it seems it may be possible for software to convert from the long format to the short format but not the other way around since not all of the information is in the short format.
Please post if you know of any software that will convert.

Re: Transmit IR code format different from receive IR format
The eventname is AFAIK just a hash of the data and there is no way to get the transmit code from it.
You could get another learning remote, learn the transmitted signal from USB UIRT and use the remote to get the event name.
Why do you need it?
To use the USB UIRT as a repeater is not intended and requires some annoying setup.

Re: Transmit IR code format different from receive IR format
If we could get the long code list for a given remote, it should be very easy
to create a repeater function without the annoying setup:
for each long code generate the short code, save both in a table. When you get a short
code, find it in the table and blast the long code.
Now, where can we get the list of long codes for a remote? (don't harmony remotes have to have them?)
