using Apple Remote Apple_A1156

I have Apple_A1156 remote

I used Software called AnalysIR to get the codes

Here is the file content

# table Apple_A1156, type: NEC

0x77E15070 KEY_UP

0x77E13070 KEY_DOWN

0x77E1A070 KEY_ENTER

0x77E16070 KEY_RIGHT

0x77E19070 KEY_LEFT

0x77E1C070 KEY_ESC

uploaded it and I got the message

ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg

Old keytable cleared

Wrote 6 keycode(s) to driver

Protocols changed to nec

I am stuck and need help:

Since I used other remote with the same system to prove it is setup properly ( xbox_360)

my guess is the code itself.

Here are my questions:

1. can I use mode2 to display in HEX ( not in raw ) what librelec see as hex code so I can compare

2. irrecord is pain and I hope that you do not recommend it

3. can I display the code that I uploaded successfully to the lirc software In other words can I display the ACTIVE code to see if uploaded properly

Your support will be greatly appreciated

Check the scancodes with ir-keytable -p all -t - on LE 9.2 this'll also print the protocol.

There's no real standard how the scancodes are formatted (eg lirc uses a completely different scheme than ir-keytable) and it could well be that AnalysIR uses a different one.

Also see the wiki for details Infrared Remotes [LibreELEC.wiki]

so long,

You were right; the code I had was not the one Lirc was seeing

Your command worked magic.....

I changed the code according to the scan code and the remote IS working....

Many thanks for your support
