I’m using the GameFrame remote that came in the box.

Got some codes on from the serial.

So usually, If i press any button on the remote, I get “IR Code: 2155831455” (NEXT) then “IR code: 4294967295” (0xFFFFFFFF) repeated about 4 or 5 times a second, until I release the button.

But some other times, pressing the same button, I also get “IR code: 32895” (followed by the same stream of 0xFFFFFFFF until I release the button) or “IR code: 2797241768”

Here’s an example of spamming randomly the POWER button on the remote:
IR code: 2155819215 <– POWER button
IR code: 4294967295 <– “still pressed after X ms”
IR code: 2797241768 <– what’s this?
IR code: 2155819215
IR code: 2155819215
IR code: 2155819215
IR code: 2155819215
IR code: 2797241768 <– again
IR code: 32895 <– and this one?
IR code: 2155819215
IR code: 2797241768 <– again
IR code: 2155819215

Looks like there’s always the same 2 random codes that pop up: 2797241768 (0xA6BA85A8 ?) and 32895 (0x807F), which could explain why NEXT code recording works (it spins until it get a different 3rd code, which in this case is exactly what happens).

Also: the test loop that prints the code the the serial port does a ‘sleep(1)’ between reads of the remote, while the record mode does not …
