I don't think I did that in 2006. That forum thread had another member with a similar question and this was your answer to him. When I revisited the thread today, I saw that and decided to try that

Thanks Robman .. I tried the one you had suggested in 2006 (NEC2, device 240 and subdevice 240) and that just worked for me .. (so far I am not seeing any conflicts/issues)

Robman's advice from that thread -
"I would advise that you use the NEC2 protocol with un-common device codes (so as to reduce the risk of you accidentally using the same code as one of your devices). If you use device code 240 and sub-device code 240, you should be safe. You should then program a ...

My own similar question from a few years ago!

I am looking for an upgrade for my FLIRC. I intend to use those 100 signals to match up with 100 ish keyboard keys/combinations using FLIRC. (https://flirc.tv/)
Requirements:
1. Should not conflict with existing devices
2. No duplicate signals

I have tried to use some existing upgrades (I don't ...

update: After retrying VIZIO TV Remote Control setting, I was able to bring sound bar to a state where its volume up/down is not activated by TV remote. However, volume up on the TV remote turns the sound bar on :( (Weirdly, volume down does not). So this is still not working for me. (when the ...

But you are right - I don't think I saw that feature there.

yup, There was some feature called "VIZIO TV Remote Control" that seemed promising, but that did not change the sound bar behavior.

My Vizio sound bar can be trained to respond to any IR commands for Vol Up, Vol Down, and Mute and I thought that your bar might have had such training, but it doesn't sound like that is the issue.

hmm, if my sound bar has that feature, I might be able to use that. I need to find the manual for ...

Thanks mdavej. I will try this out this weekend, unless of course pH7_jp1 has a simpler solution.

I have an LG TV and a Vizio sound bar, so I may be able to help, but I'm not quite ...

Why I need this -
I have LG TV and a vizio sound bar in the same room. Sound bar is used as a Bluetooth speaker for music from phones/computers etc. It is not connected to the TV.
The problem is when I am watching TV and increase/decrease volume, sound bar turns on. The volume up/down for LG works ...

I'm just thinking outside the box here, and I have absolutely no idea if this will work or not, but I decided to look up which button shift+DVR was clashing with. The problem with button codes of $40 or greater is that they already have the xshift bit turned on, so shift+$42 is the same as xshift ...

Thanks mdavej. yeah, I was afraid of that. I do have long press for setting up the system for a specific device, but family seemed to prefer shift+device, so that is another way to do the same thing. Well they will need to learn long press :)

And I am amazed that these old remotes are still going ...

resurrecting a really old topic, is it possible to somehow use shift+DVR ?

I have used up all the real devices on the remote except DVR and with a new device coming in, I am putting it on DVR. Family is used to doing shif+device to switch to different sources, so I was trying to set shift+DVR ...

Yes, the "LED staying lit until next button is pressed" works. I like that.

I also use shift-shift-power. That also works fine. LED does not go away until power is pressed. So any number of shifts do not turn off LED. In fact LED never turns off until a button is pressed. For the amount of time I ...
