Allente 1, KAON BCM72180 PVR

General

What´s left to do?

I have in my setup one satellite reciever as in the header. It´s Android powered so I was thrilled to see that it was possible to merge that entity in integrations.

But… As an integration it really not show up as all the other remotes, and all commands are not functional. Apart from that several commands are missing as digits for example.

So, I just learned all codes from the remote. It all went smooth. But they do not work, even though the set-top box seem to react with the light at its front.

I have tried different Kaon codes from GlobalHeadache but none of them are working. Are there any Scandinavian people here that have solved this? I really don´t know what to try next…

So.

And (for example) digit four looks like this in the Web configurator:

This might help someone help me? :smiley:

So, I´ve learned that the Kaon set-top box can be handled by Technicolor S70CDS codes. So it might be double format capable.

Too bad I can´t seem to get a hold of the ir-codes online.

Hello,
Interesting. Are you saying that the Allente 1 box can be controlled using IR? I thought that the remote control only used bluetooth.
I Will have the box and the remote control in different roms (15 m apart) and I have looked at ways of extending the range. No conclusion yet.

Nope, it can’t. Sorry.

Still waiting for UC to turn on BT…

Is the box Android or AndroidTV. Sounds similar but is not the same. For AndroidTV the digits, and more, are coming with the next firmware release but the are already in the current beta firmware 0.7.10.

It is Android TV. Well Ralf, you made me happy with that information! I think I´ll wat until the next “stable” release of firmware.

Yes there is a little risk but the UC has the very nice feature of backup and restore which you should use. I already used it several times.

My other remotes do not have it and it can be a pain.

Maybe I’ll try that. Speaking of witch isn’t it long overdue for a new firmware?
