It is a plugin like UniversalRF Remix but for infrared files. I do this plugin for convenience, because the main IR app need to navigate for different button abit troublesome (buttons like up,down,left,right,back). I found it useful for TV and TV box.
It supports short press and long press input for different ir remote buttons. Tested on the unleashed firmware version unlshd-072
- Multiple remote in a config file (Max 11 different IR remotes)
- Can set to use internal or external IR in the config file
- Can choose use internal or external IR if not explicitly set in config file
-
Update unleashed firmware to the version unlshd-072, then download the
ir_remote.fapfrom releases -
Put the
ir_remote.fapfile in your flipper's SD card, underapps/Infraredfolder
You also can install the unleashed firmware with extra apps included
- Similar to UniRF app, put the path of the ir file and the ir button for each button on flipper (UP,DOWN,LEFT,RIGHT,BACK)
The format With HOLD one is long press, without is short press
Example of the configuration file (Update: the string format can be in any order):
REMOTE: /ext/infrared/Philips_32PFL4208T.ir
UP: Up
DOWN: Down
LEFT: Left
RIGHT: Right
OK:
BACK: Back
UPHOLD: VOL+
DOWNHOLD: VOL-
LEFTHOLD: Source
RIGHTHOLD: SmartTV
OKHOLD: POWER
-
Save it as
.txtfile, then create a new folder in your SD cardir_remote, put it inside the folder -
Lastly, you can open the app, choose the configuration file, then you can try out the ir signal for each buttons
-
Hold the back button to exit the app
You can add an extra line in the config txt file: REPEATSIGNAL: false, so it will not send repeating IR signal when you press the hold button.
Example:
REMOTE: /ext/infrared/Philips_32PFL4208T.ir
REPEATSIGNAL: false
UP: Up
DOWN: Down
LEFT: Left
RIGHT: Right
BACK: Back
UPHOLD: VOL+
DOWNHOLD: VOL-
LEFTHOLD: Source
RIGHTHOLD: SmartTV
OKHOLD: POWER
To add multiple remotes in a configuration file, just combine all remote configuration in a config file and seperate with a newline
Example of the config file with three remotes:
REMOTE: /ext/infrared/My_fan.ir
OKHOLD: ON/OFF
UP: SPEED 1
DOWN: SPEED 2
LEFT: SPEED 3
#
REMOTE: /ext/infrared/Panasonic_CWA75C4179.ir
OKHOLD: ON
OK: OFF
#
REMOTE: /ext/infrared/Deka_G3.ir
OK: OFF
UP: SPEED 1
DOWN: SPEED 2
LEFT: SPEED 3
EXTERNAL: true
Save it at the ir_remote folder and use it just like a single remote!
Follow the example above when press OK button it will send the OFF signal from the 1st and 2nd remote. It will send the remote signals follow by ascending order (1st remote, 2nd remote then 3rd remote)
Using multiple remotes currently got some restriction:
- It will only show the first remote buttom name on the screen
- You can only add up to 11 remotes in a configuration file
- Repeat signal feature will not work
You can add an extra line in the config txt file: EXTERNAL: true or EXTERNAL: false, so it will change to external IR and turn on 5V when set to true, else it will change to internal IR.
Example:
REMOTE: /ext/infrared/Deka_G3.ir
OK: OFF
UP: SPEED 1
DOWN: SPEED 2
LEFT: SPEED 3
EXTERNAL: true
Note: It will auto turn off 5V when the program exit to save battery
You can clone this repo and put it inside the applications_user folder, then build it with the command:
./fbt fap_ir_remote
Or you can build and run it on your flipper with the command:
./fbt launch_app APPSRC=applications_user/ir_remote
Choose config file to map
Config error when the remote or button is not found
Dialog to choose to use internal or external IR
Show all button name in the config file (If empty will show N/A). Upper part short press, Lower part long press
