Interesting. There are some different codes sent by those remotes, most are ignored, some are not. Of those that are not you need to be careful! Eg if you press Enter on the live TV guide, it sends the 'wrong' Enter IR code and the uk2.5.5 software drops down into the underlying USA code, and to get proper control back you have to reboot
I'd never heard of that display function working on a uk tivo before. I looked in the library for Sendkey which TiVoweb's "web remote" uses. There is a "nowShowing" key which does work on our TiVos, how about that. Eg you can go to (in tivoweb)
http://tivo/sendkey/nowShowing and it goes to Now Playing - we have no button to do that on the physical remote other than pressing tivo twice.
'display' is in the list. But going to
http://tivo/sendkey/display from ToDo on my tivo does nothing at all. I guess there is no equivalent sequence that does the same thing, it's coming up to 11 years since v2.5.5 was new and I would hope we would have found out by now...
For info - the file I was looking at was /tvlib/tcl/tv/sendkey.tcl, and ps:
- Code: Select all
set evrc(delimiter) 35
set evrc(guide) 36
# skip over Thomson remote keys
set evrc(displayAndLeft) 40
set evrc(displayAndRight) 41
set evrc(selectAndDown) 42
I bet that 37, 38, and 39 are our Aux bypass, VCR and Enter/Jump buttons.
