Just note that the configuration syntax within HA’s configuration.yaml for SmartIR slightly differs between the two versions/devs. Furthermore if you have made your own codes or edited existing codes and you want to bring them over that the syntax also slightly differs. Best is do do some comparisons before going back into production.

Threads Post Version or Version from litinoveweedle what is now the best one?
There is no such thing as “the best one”.
Check on the respective GitHub pages:
- smartHomeHub / SmartIR → Last commit: 3 months ago.
- litinoveweedle / SmartIR → This branch is 407 commits ahead of, 74 commits behind smartHomeHub/SmartIR:master, last commit: 4 month ago.
Also go to the issue reports of both versions and weigh up which one might suit your needs better.
So after few hours of installing the old main SmartIR, realizing this fork went out, and doing again, still doesnt work.
I use the ZS06.
my configuration:
climate:
- platform: smartir
name: Bedroom AC SmartIR
unique_id: bedroom_ac_smartir
device_code: 9344
controller_data:
controller_type: MQTT
mqtt_topic: zigbee2mqtt/Bedroom IR Blaster/set
not using smartir: int the beginning, maybe wrong but I understood it is not longer required.
about the codes - I asked ChatGPT to convert the code for me to tuya. BUT - even when I try a manually working code that I learned, it doesnt works.
please help me, if logs are needed id love to have some help with getting those as well.
Welcome to the forum, Jody

Thanks for the comment!
I’ve read it all my friend, that thread as well.
Now I’m facing new challenge - after reinstalling to the new fork, SmartIR can’t read my new custom file.
Is there someone who can help me with getting the 1344 codes converted to tuya?
