I translated the verbal description you sent, and I am "98% sure" that 
it is correct. Possible the description was not accurate, or the sending 
has a problem?

With no details, no way to help you.

You appear not to use the non-demodulating receiver, or it is not 
working. Is is there? Make sure that on IrScrutinizer you have NOT 
selected Sending hw -> Girs client -> Use receive for capture.

Please make sure that "it" is working correctly when capturing a 
standard signal, RC5, NEC1, Sony,... Also make sure you can reliably 
send standard signals.

DecodeIR does not know these protocol, and is not extensible, and has a 
number of problems. IrScrutinizer 2.0 (due later this year) will 
therefore not use it.

But keep in mind that the protocol is a (at least for us) new one.

Looking at the signal; I can make sense of it. The first two and the 
last two numbers appear garbage. Then I recognize the same structure, 
but the timing are pretty different.

Try to get the (non-demodulating) capture to work reliably (FIRST try a 
standard signal), then we can go from there and modify the protocol. 
This appears do-able!
