I have been trying to set up an upgrade for a Matsui Digital TV Receiver using the URC8910B02 and I am becoming more confused after further investigation what the correct protocol is.

Initially the learned signals where showing three lines instead of one, all three indicating the Nokia Protocol. After help from Johnsfine and using a later version of DECODEIR.DLL the learned signals where cut down to one line and showing a protocol of Nokia 32. This does not exist on Keymap Master (KM) and I couldn't find one elsewhere.

After reading another message I found that someone else was having a similar problem with a Digital TV Receiver made by Daewoo. I checked who made my own and found it was actually Daewoo also.

Searching REMOTE CENTRAL for CCF files for the Phillips Pronto I found one does exist for Daewoo Digital TV Receivers. I downloaded this and used DECODECCF to check the codes. This is showing the protocol to be NEC1 with a device no. of 17 not Nokia 32. After trying the new codes from the decoded CCF file on KM there is still no success.

Are there any experts who can examine the CCF file to help myself and others identify the correct protocol. The CCF file is in the diagnosis area although I am still not sure how to create a link to this.



Thanks for any help.

I assume you're talking about this file at RC dae-dtv-all.zip. For files available on other web sites (such as RC) it is better to post the original URL than to upload the file to our diagnosis area.

I'm not sure what aspect of posting a URL you don't understand.

I think the forum software here may let you start to edit a post someone else has typed (I assume it won't let you submit the edited result). If so, then edit a post (such as this one) that includes something you don't know how to post. In the edit window you can see how it was done.

DecodeIr/DecodeCCF are correct about NEC1 protocol, device 17 in that CCF file. I'm sure DecodeIr is also correct about Nokia32 for the learned signals you described.

NEC1 and Nokia32 are totally different, totally unrelated protocols.

That leaves the question of why we have them both for what you seem to think are the same device. I don't know enough about this particular device to answer that. But some common answers (when the question comes up for other devices) are:

1) It's not really the same device

2) The device listens to more than one protocol
2a) Two ways of sending each command
2b) Some commands in one protocol and some in the other

3) Whoever made the CCF file was seriously confused and posted completely incorrect information.

4) The CCF was designed to use with some form of IR translator that receives a signal in one protocol and retransmits it (often in another room) in another protocol.

I'm having the same problem. The Daewoo file you found is for a DS608P Setpal which does use NEC1 protocol. The DTV box which you have is a clone of a Daewoo DS700P which uses Nokia32 (I've got both boxes). We need some bright spark to update the protocol.ini for Remote Master or update KM to support the Nokia32 protocol!

Using the learning function on the URC8910 I have managed to learn all required keys to use the Digital TV Receiver.

I am hoping that someone will be able to create a protocol for Nokia 32 and possible add this to Key master. I have put the IR file created by myself showing all learned signals in the diagnosis area in case this helps them.

Thanks for any help.

Re: Johns post.
I'm sure there are plenty of beginners who are confused about posting links to files.
The only way I know of to post a link is to open the file section in a new browser window, right click on the download button, select "copy link location" and paste it in the original post in the other window.
If someone can tell me another way, I'd appreciate it.
Perhaps a sticky post in the beginners section?
