Irremoteesp8266: Request for a Databaase [IDEA]

Created on 1 May 2018  Â·  5Comments  Â·  Source: crankyoldgit/IRremoteESP8266

Hey there,
i am here with a suggestion which i think would be really helpful to a lot of people,
i think that we should create a database for many ir codes and this won't be hard to establish because we can send ir codes from our phone using a small accessory. because i like to fiddle around with a lot of different products and many of them have really annoying ir codes that change every time or are too long.
the creator of this library will also benefit from this data base. i am ready to contribute as much as i can, i have the hardware and different selection of ir receivers.
let me know your opinion and if in case such database exists( which can be used with this library) please share that with me.

I believe there's already support to send GC codes

Exactly what @darshkpatel said. There are several projects that record button->codes->signal mappings.
GlobalCache is probably the easiest. There are also databases of Pronto codes With a lot more conversion effort, there is the LIRC database too.

I really don't think we need to re-invent the wheel. We already have some tools to convert from one to the other even in this library. i.e. See the tools/ directory.

@saikhurana
use IRGCSendDemo.ino sketch to send GC formatted codes, they have a pretty big database here
let us know if you need more help with that

@saikhurana , do I mark this issue closed ?

i am really sorry that i was not able to respond, i have still not tries
that IRGCSEND DEMO. so you mark this issue as closed for now and later i
will contact when i will work on IRGCSENDDEMO
