A weekend of frenzied Elmoness has seen progress on both receiving and sending IR signals. My test programs can now do both, the only problem being that the two aren't compatible - codes recorded don't activate the equipment as expected. When I use the numbers captured by the real LIRC programs, everything is fine. Although frustrating, this means that the basic mechanisms are there, I'm just missing something on the reception side. I'm wondering about the sample frequency of the receiver (and transmitter).
My receive and record program can get consistent results and distinguish different buttons on the remote which is better than I've managed before. Transmit is cheating by using a program provided by the IR transceiver manufacturer.
If I can get the reception calibrated in line with transmission, the learning process I've come up with will work much better than the LIRC default one, which is rather long-winded. I'm hoping this doesn't prove too difficult, but only time will tell.
