The old XBOX uses RCA codes, a standard protocol for controlling DVD players. I don't know if this will help you much, since I dont know how the beo5 remote control is programmed.

Here are some links that may help you:

About the RCA protocol: http://www.sbprojects.com/knowledge/ir/rca.htm

Under "Remote buttons" you will find a table describing the remote code for each button on the remote: http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Keymap.xml

The 4 bit address for the xbox is "5" or "0101" in binary if i remember correctly.

Hi Magnus !

Thanks for your reply. What do you mean with this :

"The 4 bit address for the xbox is "5" or "0101" in binary if i remember correctly"

Do I need the send "5" or "0101" before the command I would like to send ? The commands that are listed, do they need to be sent with binary ?

Regards

Hans

Well, the ir-protocol that is used with the xbox remote control sends two different parts of information. First the address that tells xbox that it is supposed to read the signal, and the signal. For the xbox, this address is 5 in decimal form, which translates to 0101 in binary.

Secondly, all IR signals are sent binary. If you can tell the beo5 to use the correct protocol (RCA) then I don't think you will have to worry about this. It all depends on how one programs a beo5. Since I don't own one, I don't know how to program it. :)  

Lets say you can choose an address. Then you will have to set this to be 5. If you cannot, then I think you will have to put 5 in front of the command you want to send.

I'm sorry I'm not able to help you more. :/

I have tried this series that should give send "1" to the X-box. I pasted the numbers into the "command frame" of the Beo 5 CT setup but it doesnt work. Do I have to choose something to the right in the software as well ? There a some options like TV, Radio etc and also 4ex, SS and so on.

Would really appreciate some help here.

 

Best regards

I don't think it is possible for Beo5 to send IR-Codes that is not B&O specific.

Nope, I'm not able to get it running. Does anyone know if something in the STB-list uses RCA-codes as Magnus mentioned earlier ?

Hans

Thanks Weebyx for all information. I also have noticed that the Xbox is included in the Beo5, but I cant get it working. I managed to get the Lutron-commands since it is an Accessorie but the Xbox is listed as an Source, seems to be some difference there ?

Hans

OK, I understand. I need the Xbox in the STB-list also for the Beo5.

Thanks !!
