A family member upgraded his stereo and offered me his Peachtree Audio Decco as a hand-me-down. I couldn’t say no because my previous hand-me-down has recently become buzzy. But, in order for it to work with my home automation setup, I needed to be able to turn it on and off, switch inputs, and change volume from my Home Assistant home automation system via my Raspberry Pi. I use<\/a> LIRC<\/a> for this but there is no remote config for the Decco. So I used the remote and recorded the pulses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using irrecord<\/code> didn’t go that well. The dots were coming in but very slowly. I’d have to sit there for 10 minutes pressing in order to get enough dots for it. So I used mode2 to record raw commands on my pi. Then I hand-edited it to have the right format for a conf file and then ran irrecord -a<\/code> on it to convert it to actual codes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the LIRC remote DB hasn’t been updated since 2018 and has a few open merge requests, I figured it’d be easier to just post the file here for the next person who needs it. It works great. Here you go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fun times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
