I've seen a few projects on the interent where using a PIC/Atmel controller you can switch the xbox on/off. Here in SA I cannot get any of the Atmel controllers unless I order in bulk. I also cannot seem to get any of the other PICs to work.
To cut a long story short I've discovered Nigels tut on using the 16f628 with IR. () - Tut 5.1
Kinda looks simple enough and I just need to adapt it to work with the xbox RCA procol (**broken link removed**) (Yes, you can buy the already completed project, but I think of this as another learning project
I've started going thru the tut so once I've understood it I can convert it. One thing thats confusing me is on the TryError, TryZero etc routines, where do you get the values from (20,60,112) to decide if its valid.
Also from looking at the RCA protocol should it be a simple process to detect which key is pressed on the remote using Nigels tut, or am I missing something else?
Any help/throughts/comments would be appreciated.
