You could reverse engineer a proprietary protocol. Or I guess you could just manually capture the cartesian product of all possible field values, and make a giant lookup table. Times multiple proprietary target encoding formats. Times dozens of devices.https://github.com/smartHomeHub/SmartIR/blob/master/codes/climate/1023.json …

I was going to write a
@home_assistant integration for my aircon. Then I found that project, and figured maybe I didn't have to. Still going to do it.1 reply 1 retweet 14 likesShow this thread -
I just... don't understand how multiple people contributing to a project end up (manually!) capturing thousands of IR codes from remotes to make this work and don't stop and think that there might be a better way.

Replying to @marcan42
Maybe you can look at the codes and determine how they work vs starting from scratch? I mean it’s essentially a crapload of packet captures right?

Yeah, it would be fairly easy to go from the captures to simple algorithms for building packets, though you'd lose out on all the features they *didn't* capture because it would be too many combinations.
