      I just got a new Optoma projector, and thought I'd just record the on/off button and switch out the old one I had for a BenQ projector, but it didn't work. Are there IR remotes that anyone else knows the Hub IR blaster can't handle?

        @Emil Thanks. I was able to read the signal using a raspberry Pi and then replaying worked with Flic. Don't know why it wouldn't read it correctly, but now my problem is solved!

          @johan-0 The IR functionality in the Flic Hub is pretty simple. It just records an IR signal and then replays it. If the IR remote typically sends a dynamic signal (or something that is not static), the receiver might not accept a replayed signal. If you use the Hub SDK, you can both inspect recorded signals but also create your own signals by defining the "raw" data.

            Just a bump here. Are there any known limitations on IR sequences?

              I think I had the same when trying to control my AC unit, so I ended up programming a Raspberry Pi instead. Is thin a known limitation?
