the firmware is 1.45a

OK, so that is not the problem.. I will need to re-test this XML file and get back to you.

I am currently travelling, so I will not be able to look at this until Friday evening when I get home.

It sounds nice :) - I wish that I had time for some traveling.

 

Could it be something with that all of your commands begins with: UNKNOWN:GlobalManual ?

No, that is fine, UNKNOWN is used where the protocol is not directly implemented in the firmware.

The normal reason for this type of problem is where you have RAW encoding and also enable REPEAT for that command

Okay :).

 

Is there anything I can try myself to fix the problem, or do you think it's the entire code that needs to be re written?

 

All the  best

Niels,

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

I have resolved the problem which was actually caused by a small problem in the B&O firmware when using BITSTREAM encoding, but I have implemented a workaround which works perfectly.

You can download the new version of the Generic Samsung Blu_Player XML for DIRECT control from HERE

Let me know if it is all working correctly.
