Hi Bengt,

Thanks for all the help

What kind of details would help?

Use receive for capture is not checked an I am able to CCapture and decode
successfully an old Bell remote I have laying around:
protocol = Sharp, device = 1, obc = 22 (frequency 40000 or 39215 depending
on TV or Bell unit keys)
I also have an HDMI switcher that seemms to be NEC1:
protocol = NEC1, device = 2, obc = 14 (frequency 38461)
A cheap remote that came with my arduino kit:
protocol = NEC1, device = 0, obc = 67 (frequency 37735)
I also have an AC remote (that sends the whole settings on every key press)
Protocol is not detected (frequency 37735)

So to me it seems like everything is working, which would mean that the
Elunevision remote indeed has a frequency of 20000, would that change how
the file should be written? And how to send the signal?

I am able to control my BenQ projector (for which I do not have the remote)
using a file from the GlobalCache database (not the exact same remote, so
only some keys work).

Try to get the (non-demodulating) capture to work reliably (FIRST try a

What would be a good direction to look into? Are there some resource on how
to write custom signals? Something that would teach me to write signals
manually like you did?

Thanks again for you patience and help!
