BEO6 XML for Samsung Smart TV

18 replies

Hi Miniac,

Thanks. This helped me a lot. Your XML contains six codes I didn't have next to some nice discrete codes for Power On, Power Off and HDMI.

I'm now still missing RAW codes for:
Guide
Return
Search
Social TV
E-Manual.

I attached the XML I have created so far. I'm actually quite pleased with it. Works very well where the layout of buttons resembles the original Samsung remote as much as possible. Due to the Power On and Power Off codes I could realise the TV switching on at the push of 'TV', just like a B&O television.

I will publish an update as soon as I have the missing codes. This is as far as I can come right now. Tips on obtaining the missing codes are still welcome...;-)

Joost,

I took your Pronto HEX codes converted them and then added the missing binary digit at the end of each string to give what I am hoping will now be the correct codes.

I have checked them on the scope and they appear to be correct, but please test them and get back to the forum.

Hi Keith,

They are all working now! Thanks a lot!

I attached the 'final' version of the remote for the Samsung Smart TV. Really great,

I have used this XML on my Beo5.

It is comprised of 3 screens. The first works flawlessly inclusive of 'wheel' buttons.

The second and third screens are not usable as ALL the screen options are piled on top of each other created a garbled set of text in the center of the screen. It seems as if some layout parameters to spread out the screen options do not work...

Anyone had similar issues?

You are right the XML provides three screens for the Samsung Smart TV. It's nice the IR-codes work, but I'm sorry to learn the XML doesn't work 100% for a Beo5. I spent a lot of time creating a grouping of buttons which is both logical and also resembling the original remote as much as possible. But I only have a Beo6 to test and they have a different screen layout....

I used an example for an empty XML from the Beo5 Configuration Guide from this site as a basis for the XML. This gives you the possibility to specify both x and y coordinates and relative positions for a button (row and column). It's not clear to me exactly what the difference is, and which you should use for a Beo5 or Beo6. Please do some experimentIng with this and let us know the results.

regards Joost

I think the source of the problem lies in that the Beo5 has a screen resolution of 234x960 whilst the Beo6 has a  320x240.

No I will have to start the painstaking process of adapting the XML.🙁
