IR receiver for triggering automations

Hardware
6

Hello

I just got an ATHOM IR/RF unit.
I assigned it an IP, added it to ESPhome, and upload a quick YAML config:

substitutions:
  name: athom-rf-ir-remote-3504d8
  friendly_name: Athom RF IR Remote 3504d8
packages:
  China Athom Technology.Athom RF IR Remote: github://athom-tech/esp32-configs/athom-rf-ir-remote.yaml
esphome:
  name: ${name}
  name_add_mac_suffix: false
  friendly_name: ${friendly_name}
api:
  encryption:
    key: blablabla
wifi:
  ssid: !secret wifi_ssid
  password: !secret wifi_password

I do have the infrared.athom_rf_ir_remote_3504d8_ir_proxy_receiver entity, and it reacts whenever I press a button on any of my remotes.

I added HAIR…
It successfully sniff and send commands from an IR fan remote, but it fails to sniff from the TV remote.

Actually, that’s not quite it; I’m trying to get it to learn the four colored buttons on my remote, but it seems to be picking up the same code regardless of which button is pressed.
