Power On and Off IR commands on BD-H8500
Posted: Thu Feb 12, 2015 9:39 pm
Hi,
I became an owner of BD-H8500 Bluray PVR (whicxh is basically Blu-Ray player with DVB-T/DVB-C tuner, based on H-series TVs).
I use Logitech's Harmony 900 to control all my devices.
My LE46C750 TV in Logitech's device database, as many other (newer) Samsung TVs, has 'unofficial' 'Power On' and 'Power Off' IR codes which allow much reliable control of TV's power state than just Power On/Off (Power Toggle) command (which corresponds to Power button on original remote). These commands are 'unofficial' because original remote does not have such buttons.
Sadly Logitech's device database for Samsung BD players and BD/PVR combos (at least series such as E,F,G) do not have 'Power On' and 'Power Off' codes. There's only basic PowerToggle command available.
Do you know if such codes do not exist for Samsung DB players or it is just Logitech's database that is missing them ?
