IIRC, Sony20 is also impossible for device numbers 32 and up (since its 13 device bits are split as 5 for device and 8 for subdevice).
So if the user selects a device number 32 or up we should force the protocol to Sony15 (rather than generate a garbage Hex command) |
OKmy Sony Camcorder uses 4 Sony ID's:
12.7
15.185
15.217
20.26
A couple of years ago I used the Device Combiner Protocol to create the upgrade I needed--which created a pretty big Upgrade Protocol. Are you implying that if I use OBC codes with the Sony Combo protocol that it will automatically figure out the correct 12 or 15 device and I can just add 26 to the Sony20 subdevs and I'll be good to go---or do I still have to explicity map out all 4 devices to 4 protocol ID's |

I haven't played with the Sony combo protocol myself. But based on what I've read here, the Sony Combo protocol covers your set of device codes. Assuming your remote has that protocol built-in (I didn't check which ones do), it would save a lot of space vs. the ordinary device combiner. |
