all messages you quoted were mine...

@ bender
what if i only needed it for 10cm? would it be able to be utilized in the sdk?

That's why i went to an external hardware solution (which is really precise @ 80 feet).

Coming soon

I forgot to quote the post

ive been looking all over the internet for days on trying to get this to work, ive tried all kidns of ways and none of them worked... then i found this simple way... ive made the receiver that works fine, its a 3 pinned receiver with a resistor connected to an audio cable... thing is the transmitter ive made doesnt work. (ive tested and it can sample the ir signals of all my remotes...) and im able to record them but the problem is i cannot transmit them and ge them to work. Now i might be editing them properly or whatever i dont know, so could someone send me a link to a working sample for any remote i dont mind and i can test to see if it works using my mobile phone camera to see if it lights up. If it does then i know im doing something wrong with the editing.

BTW im using the simple one, 2 ir transmitters and then left and right connected as the diagram on the first page shows. Any ideas?
thanks

WTF guys ? i asked a question like a month ago.... slow forum eh?
no offense really

Someone hijacked your idea:

http://uiremote.wordpress.com/

This is something I've actually been waiting to see for the iTouch/iPhone from day one.
Most universal remotes with touch screens (Pronto) are unfriendly hard to use, short of memory, and ridiculously expensive. Every other project that is similar doesn't actually do this type of thing (iRed related), requiring interfaces to only operate the computer, not your own standalone audio/video devices.

I applaud this. Too bad the iPhone doesn't actually have it's own IR interface... maybe about the time they add an FM/XM radio internally . Wouldn't it be nice to print web documents off the phone to your IR capable printer?

However, a couple of suggestions... There is a website (somewhere) that has the digital profiles of most IR codes (when I visited it about 4 years ago, they had more than 5000 remotes represented... with all their codes). It was represented digitally, so there would be no loss of info, or miscommunication, which often results from "learning." This included things like repeat cycles, start and looping coding (I have a remote whose codes change based on how far you turn a dial on it and how long you keep it in that position).
If you find a way to accept these alphanumeric strings, build custom buttons, and have multiple pages, you can create the ultimate remote control with very little overhead. At that point, I'd buy a Touch just for that alone.
If you find a way to avoid storing codes as audio files (how fast is the Touch?), and just generate the IR signal from code, it would be awesome.

I'm rather surprised that your idea hasn't been implemented commercially, already.
Keep it up!

i was wondering if anyone could hook me up with 6 of the audio files that they've recorded (doesn't matter which ones) reason being. i'm going to use this project in conjunction with an ir reciever/decoder ic to make an ipod controlled relay board. the chip is a learning chip so it doesn't matter which 'codes' i use.

if anyone could help me out i'd greatly appreciate it and I'll post my project up on this site when i complete it.

thanks in advance

Is there another Infrared sensor that we could use? I can't find QSE156
