Posted: Thu Dec 16, 2010 1:31 am Post subject: ir generates the error when loading from the remote |
|
|
I created an upgrade file for my RS15-100 but not all buttons seem to work with my Onkyo 805 receiver. I manually learned those commands but when I try to download from remote I get the following error:
"The learned DataBurst appears to be malformed. Learned data parsing stopped at $DFE.
Use the Advanced->Clean Upper Memory option to clean the unused device/protocol/learned memory areas and relearn the signal."
If I delete the learned keys it doesn't help. If I upload my upgrade file to the remote and download from remote it works. I've tried to use Clean Upper Memory option but it doesn't help. Please advice. |

one more observation. I've set the global volume to AUD (my ONKYO 805) though when I am in AUX mode the remote control adjusts the volume on my HD OTA receiver (Samsung DTB-H260F). I never had this problem with my 8910. |

I'm not sure just what you've tried, so this may seem a little like preaching to the choir, but.....
IR.exe is telling you that some of the learns are bad--sufficiently so that it doesn't know what to do with them.
It is instructing you to Clean Upper memory: deleting the learns isn't sufficient, becsuse it doesn't know where the learns stopped in memory.
The you need to re-learn the signals. Just reloading the IR file won't help.
You can use the decodes for all but one of the signals that have been decoded, so you probably don't need to relearn those. But basically IR is telling you to start over. Then, once you have all the learned signals decoded, you can go ahead and make an upgrade. |

If I learn either one of the three keys I can no longer download from the remote.
Another problem is with volume lock not working when activating AUX mode. That's why I uploaded IR.exe file.
I discovered one more problem today with Nfusion HD upgrade assigned to sat/cbl mode. When I click "power" button remote resets. |

Ok I managed to fix the problem with Onkyo upgrade. The Onkyo Master upgrade had a problem with second byte on keys 1 and 6. It should be 2 for key 1 and 1 for key 6. For the power button it should be set to 2.
Also the problem with NfusionHD upgrade went away once I flash my remote over once again. It no longer resets when I press power button in sat/cbl mode.
I still have the problem with Samsung Hd over the air tuner. Once I load the special protocol with upgrade I loose the ability to have volume locked to AUD when I'm in AUX mode. |

By "special protocol" do you mean the 01FF protocol executor? We could look for where the trouble is, but I think it would be better and easier to change to a standard protocol executor.
That upgrade and protocol executor sends Samsung36 IR protocol, device 32.0 with E=1. That's typical of Samsung Cable boxes. It's easy to convert, because the EFCs (but not the OBCs) are the same for both the Manual Settings and Samsung36. But the advantage is that the 01B5 Samsung36 protocol executor is standard, and won't conflict with any other 01FF executors that you may need to add.
Also, the 15-100 has a built-in executor for the Onkyo. It is called the NEC 4 DEV combo, but is the more modern executor. Using it would save some bytes because a protocol upgrade isn't required. |

FWIW I have the same Samsung OTA STB with the same 15-100 remote and I use the 01 B5 protocol suggested by 3FG. Volume punch-thru works fine. The only issue I have is that unless I'm very deliberate about limiting the duration of a keypress, I get unwanted repeats. Most keys don't matter, but I don't want the number keys to repeat, else it's hard to just enter a "2" without over-running and going to channel 22 instead. I don't remember if the original remote had the same problem.
BTW, unless you're uncommonly lucky, the caps in the pwr supply of the STB will go bad. They're not particularly difficult to replace if you're handy with a soldering iron.

I assume you're talking about the Samsung DTB-H260F, so i did a search and found the info needed to repair it (or maybe some preventative maintenance):

Thanks a lot guys.
I switched my Onkyo upgrade to NEC 4 DEV combo per 3FG recommendations and erased not needed protocol upgrade.
My Samsung OTA receiver never had any problems (knock on the wood) though I'm going to read the linked thread. I never opened it is very possible that caps are leaking. I've been using the upgrade file posted by Rob a while ago with the required 01FF protocol upgrade. This protocol upgrade causing problems with volume lock. I just tried switching to Samsung36 with Device code set to 32, Sub device set to 0 and E set to 1. But I still have the same problem with volume lock. Also A.A. was right about the duration of keypresses. It's definately very sensitive, comparing to the Manual protocol or the original remote.
I've uploaded 2 IR files with 01FF and 01B5 protocol upgrades.

It would be really nice if someone could take a look at them.
Another option I have is manually learn all buttons from Samsung HD but I don't want to have missing left arrow and exit keys. |

You have a CBL/SAT code assigned to the AUX button, whereas I think the default mode for AUX is audio. VPT won't work in under a device button that is not using the default device mode.
You have two options:
1) Reprogram your Samsung LC upgrade using AUDIO mode.
2) Reprogram the volume buttons in AUX mode using learning or keymoves. _________________ Rob

Yes, that's the one. I ended up harvesting some caps from a PC supply built in an era before they started cheaping out on capacitors. I used those to replace the obvious ones on the Samsung STB and it came back to life.

Thanks Rob. Option 1 worked. Initially I've tried changing mode in IR when I was adding a device, but it doesn't do anything. This time I changed the mode to Amp in KM9.18 and it worked like a charm. BTW I kept 01FF protocol for Samsung OTA tuner as it doesn't have keypress problem like 01B5.
Next step is to create an upgrade file for my TV and I will be done without manual key learns. |
