IR Repeater Learning Capability and IR API #91

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
To access the "Recorded TV" menu on my DVR (ATT UVerse) it takes 5 buttons 
pushes. The original remote has a dedicated button for this. The GoogleTV 
remote does not. I'd like to map a button on the GoogleTV remote for this. 
GoogleTV should expose a simple configuration menu that will let you map an IR 
code to a button on the remote.

Alternatively, GoogleTV could crowd-source improved DVR IR remote codes so that 
the database improves for everyone.

Also, if this feature isn't possible, please provide an API to learn IR codes 
that can be mapped to a button on the remote.

// learn a code
byte[] code = IrRepeater.Learn();

// repeat a code
IrRepeater.Repeat(code);
