    From what i feel and observe, i might bet on few things.

    Self adjustment:
    1. The ability to find and suggest everyone the ultimate solution that couldn't be contradicted.
    2. The ability of raising a self esteem in a such way that someone is known as the best even if not.
    3. Having the attitude to make people feel cheap and dumb because they don't know what they do, but yeah refer them to the RTFM %^&%* thingy
    4. all of the above

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    I found a lot of Scott as a person's name but no result for "scott dvd player" or even scott "dvd player". Where did you find the file ?

    Scott's custom code is 8.
    What do you mean by this ?

    Scott is indeed a brand name. We saw them often here before. They had bad reputation so far for all of their product (TV, VCR and so on). Maybe they have another label here now

    On the RemoteCentral web site, in the Files section, under Philips Pronto & ProntoPro Classic, Component Configuration Files, Scott, DVD Players. You will need ProntoEdit (also available on the site) to view the files and see the IR codes.
    What do you mean by this ?
    Read the NEC datasheet I cited near the beginning of this thread.

    If you don't want to take the time to learn the rudiments of ProntoEdit, then read the NEC data sheet and capture the codes using the simple hardware shown at http://davehouston.net/learn.htm. NEC codes are very easy to decode once you've bothered to read the datasheet.

    I'm afraid my patience and helpfulness has come to an end.

    The attached GIFs show the code sent by the "1" button as taken from the earlier cited CCF file.

    Well, at the University there was a class about Information - Society (mainly about the social consequences of IT in the evolution of the societies etc).

    Convergence of technologies and Self-adjustment are the terms widely used there. Self - adjustment has to do with the ability to "repair" a bad situation without the intervention of the respective authority.

    Authority here reads Admin...

    Do you mean 'taking care of business' ?

    I think the rest of us might refer to this as "Damage Limitation".

    Hello,
    #1. Way to go Dave, I bookmarked your Tutorial for further study, Thanks !
    #2. So all this banter is about not getting spanked? Just cause a dog growles,
    dosen't mean he doesn't like you, it just means he's a dog !
    #3. To quote an infamous American Sociologist " Can't we all just get along" ?
    Welcome to Los Angeles, where we will treat you like a KING !
    If you do not believe in MAGIC, Consider how currency has value simply by printing it, and is then traded for real assets.
    .
    Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, barter is the money of peasants - but debt is the money of slaves
    .
    There simply is no "Happy Spam" If you do it you will disappear from this forum.

    I converted the signal to a wave file. Now it looks like the one attached. Is there a software being able to filter out the high and low periods available ?

    Yes and no. I have software I wrote a few years ago that can convert between .WAV, .CCF, .LIR and a few other IR formats as well as allow for graphic editing but it's not available to others. If you attach your .WAV file, I'll convert it to CCF or RAW (just the durations of pulses/spaces).

    BTW, this looks more like a Sony 12-bit protocol than NEC but it's hard to say as the horizontal scale is too small. If it is Sony, it's explained here...
