I’m setting up an M5 Atom Lite with an IR receiver, with the intention to use IR codes from my remote control to trigger scripts in HA. I am seeing my IR events in the ESPHome device logs, but for every button press I am seeing 3 lines of data - for example: [13:05:40][D][remote.pronto:238]: Recei…

Most likely you’ll need to test a bit. What I normally do is log the same button 10 times and pick one that seems to be the cleanest. I would test each one individually and look at combining them too. And if you have no luck with pronto I would move across to raw pretty quickly.

Jeez I had no idea that there was so much variation in the codes generated from pressing the same button. This is what I got from four successive presses of the on/off button on one of my remotes. No two are the same! [19:07:18][D][remote.pronto:238]: Received Pronto: data=0000 006D 0022 0000 015B …

I would switch to raw now. If you search around, you’ll find quite a lot of other threads of people starting with Pronto (as it “initially appears to be the right protocol” ) but switching to raw (and eventually getting that working after varying levels of headache). Search some threads and you’ll …

Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately I’m not getting any raw codes at all when I press any of the buttons on the remote - I only get pronto codes (and I have dump: all specified) From what I’ve read in the links that I’ve followed, the challenge for most people is transmitting IR codes which are corre…

Did you try step 1 here? I.e dump: raw ? [image] ESP32 IR Remote - Pronto - Inconsistent data, not sending ESPHome Got a breakthrough, so I thought I’ll post here could it somehow help somebody else blush I struggled a lot going raw. Like a lot. Then I read a lot about i…

Ah OK yes I’ve set dump: raw and I now see the raw codes - thanks!

M5 Atom IR Receiver - which data value to include in binary_sensor definition?

My bet is once you switch to raw your button presses will be different.
