Re: [misterhouse-users] Learning IR using USB-UIRT: Some progress

[David N. <jud...@ad...>]

From my experience, the repeat value is different for each manufacturer.
Trial and error is the only way to find an optimal value.  I read somewhere
that the carrier frequency can be off by 10% and still work.
