    That is quite possible, there just aren't a lot of config files available for air conditioners. I've only found one for Panasonic so far. I'm not sure where to find more A/C codes...

    Very nice app, thank you Copernicus

    An idea: would it be possible to make software to "record" keyset from an existing remote controller?

    I think this has been mentioned earlier in the thread.
    The N900 camera isn't good enough to record the pulses from the remote.
    It my be possible to use a IR Receiver and H-E-N

    They can be recorded with a IR Receiver on a Desktop like LIRC do.

    Plz how does someone changes to AV channels with this remote. There is no button labelled SOURCE or AV.

    Thx for reply in advance.

    Try Input?

    Yes, Pierogi is definitely behind the curve right now in supporting source controls in detail. There is the "Input" button on the Utility panel, which is useful if your target device has a single button that can cycle through all the available input sources. There is also an "Input Panel" you can activate, that has a handful more source control choices.

    But yeah, I do want to set up a more comprehensive input control system in Pierogi. The big problem I have right now is that different manufacturers have made very different choices in how to manage source control, and I haven't been able to come up with a good "universal" mechanism to support them all.

    Just an update: neither the Magnum or the Telenet keysets are working for me... I'll need to write down exact model numbers and dig a bit...

    Problems with Telenet aren't a surprise, given that it's my first attempt at the protocol being used and that I'm really not certain I even had the right codes. But I thought sure I had the Magnum right... I'll take another look. Thanks!

    Update to 1.0.0.

    Directv standart model L12 (that say the manual) kinda works (with Directv sat keyset 1).

    I mean, you have to press until change and doesn't change quikly or always, so works but not like should be.

    It doesn't matter if your'e close to the device.

    I'll try it on HD model (not sure if i can do it today) and report later.

    Greetings.

    Edit: Tried on HD model an works much better.

    Ah, I bet I know the problem, too. DirecTV seems to be using a standard set of codes across all their devices, but they have two different inter-code pause timings and three different carrier frequencies. I don't have all six permutations covered yet; so the L12 is probably using a compatible carrier frequency (since it does sometimes recognize the codes), but doesn't have the right timing. I've probably got the right choices down for the HD model.

    Good to hear that some DirecTV receivers are working, though! I'll try to put in coverage for the other varieties in the next update. It looks like Pierogi might finally have some ability to deal with satellite receivers after all...
