Hello,
A have received my Remote 3 this week and started to play with it.
I am facing many issues.
The first one is that I have a Marantz SR7011 receiver and I don’t manage to learn some buttons (IR codes) from the original remote. For example, regarding the source buttons, I successed to learn the “CBL/SAT” and “MEDIA PLAYER” buttons, but none of the other (“DVD”, “Blu-ray”…). The Dock 3 displays “UNKNOWN” when I press the button of the original remote.
Do you have an idea to solve this issue?
Thank you.
Simple. Use the Denon integration and use IP instead of IR.

Does the following HEX code work for the DVD input:
0000 0073 0010 0000 0020 0020 0040 0040 0040 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 00A0 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0040 0040 0040 09b7
I tried it with my R2 and had the same negative result. Have you tried the Marantz, Generic AVR1 Unfolded Circle offers if you do not tick create blank?
Nevertheless IP based Denon Integration would be a better choice.

Hello,
I used the Denon integration with IP and it works fine. Thank you!
But why are some IR codes “learnable” and others not?
Good question. Next question.
A better question why are some working and some not for the same device. There are devices with uncommon frequencies or protocols but on the same device it is curious.

I noticed that the remote learns 16 bit IR just fine. But 64 but code is learned as 16 bit code. Many IR remotes send 16 bit, 32 bit and 64 bit codes. I assume this is why not all codes are learned correctly.
This is the fork of the library the dock is using to receive and send ir codes: GitHub - unfoldedcircle/IRremoteESP8266: Infrared remote library for ESP8266/ESP32: send and receive infrared signals with multiple protocols. Based on: https://github.com/shirriff/Arduino-IRremote/ Adapted for UCD2.
There’s also a fork with newer commits from Markus, the Head of Software from UC: GitHub - zehnm/IRremoteESP8266: Infrared remote library for ESP8266/ESP32: send and receive infrared signals with multiple protocols. Based on: https://github.com/shirriff/Arduino-IRremote/ Adapted for UCD2
Maybe you find more infos in there.
I am also facing the IR Learn issue for Marantz. There are buttons missing from the native Denon Integration and it would be nice to supplement them with the IR Command. Specifically the Smart Select commands
There was a huge update of the Denon integration 2 weeks ago did you look now? Which commands are working? I found out that not all IR inputs can be learned and this is a known bug and devs are working on it. You can try the Denon generic AVR from unfolded circle or global cache.
Ralf
Do we have to do something to get the update of Denon integration?
Feature Request here
What are you missing?
Ralf
Sorry, my question was not clear enough: I am wondering what I/we have to do to get the new version of the Denon integration in our remote.
Firmware update and you have the latest version. HA, Apple, Denon, Android TV, Sonos, Hue, Bang&Olufson, Roon, Roku, Global Cache are default integration which will be updated with new firmware for now.
