I posted This on the other forum area but I don't know if anyone saw it as I did not get any replies anyway.
Okay old post I know but I'm visiting Vermont again (A Comcast/Xfinity area) I got some of the older silver ones from the return pile (they said they toss them as they no longer get used for new accounts or resent out due to EOL and the #1 media scare word ... yes COVID!) I got 3 of them they are nice for free!
I also took a few of the newer voice remotes XR15 (I think?)
Anyway not 100% JP1 related but are these Bluetooth? I have an older Sony XBR-55X850C and it has a Bluetooth remote (Sony calls it the touch remote as it has a touchpad thingy on it) I got both an IR and the Bluetooth one when I bought the TV.
Can I somehow sync the Comcast remote with Bluetooth? If not can I do anything with it as I live in a Charter/Spectrum area so I don't have the X1 box at my disposal anyway I cancelled TV anyway as it was like 85% of my bill but I did keep their remotes as I "never got any" LoL! They can't keep tabs on them like their other equipment so I kept them. |

You can certainly use the remotes with JP1, if they are JP1 remotes, but I don't know anything about them having Bluetooth ability. _________________ Rob

Well it does have IR but it is RF for the newer X1 platform Comcast boxes, I was hoping to get a Comcast box and separate the receiver part but the pictures I saw on the FCC site it looks impossible.
The XR15 is a UEI remote but no JP1 pins that I can see. |
