The solution above if for X1. I had the same problem in my 2 year old U2 and was able to fix it, but the process is slightly different. The case is held together by 7 screws, 5 in the battery compartment and 2 under the rubber foot at the other end. Once those are removed, the two case parts can be separated using a thin plastic wedge to pop it apart at a few snap in spots along the sides. Note that there is a co-ax antenna cable attached to the back and plugged into the circuit board which must be unplugged. Next, there are screws holding the circuit board in place. It is not necessary to disconnect the display. Finally, I sprayed the sensor at the end of the scroll wheel with DeoxIT D-5 which I had on hand. Obviously the sensor is a bad component, hopefully the manufacturer has learned their lesson.
FWIW, I was able to solve this similar to the Node-red solution above, but just using a Home Assistant webhook. http://bbs.sofabaton.com:8091/post/1897
For Home Assistant I added a web hook that takes the incorrectly serialized JSON, deserializes it and forwards it. This is the yaml for the "Then Do" ``` action: remote.send_command target: entity_id: "{{ (trigger.json | from_json).entity_id }}" data: command: "{{ (trigger.json | from_json).command }}" num_repeats: 2 delay_secs: 0 hold_secs: 0 ```
Found a similar post from 9 months ago. Yikes! Doesn't seem like any fix is coming soon, so will try the node-red proxy. Seems like such a simple fix for such a great feature idea. :shrug: http://bbs.sofabaton.com:8091/post/1823
I’ve managed to get the Virgin/Ziggo box working a different way, not directly with Sofabaton IR codes, but via Home Assistant. I used the LG Horizon HACS integration together with an emulated Roku in HA. The Sofabaton is set up to send Roku commands, which are picked up in HA and mapped via automations to the Horizon integration to control the Virgin box. So far, all the main navigation, info, guide functions work this way. I haven’t solved on/off mapping yet, so I just leave the Virgin box on a 24-hour timeout since it’s used daily. Might not be straightforward, but it’s been reliable once set up. Hope this helps all. The automation is set-up like this: triggers: - trigger: event event_type: roku_command event_data: source_name: Home Assistant type: keypress key: Up id: Up - choose: - conditions: - condition: trigger id: Up sequence: - action: lghorizon.remote_key_press data: entity_id: media_player.stream_box remote_key: ArrowUp
