Chromecast's IR Codes for Sony Home Theatre Recievers are Incomplete/Incorrect + Dual Power On/Off

[veermaharaj]

When trying to program my CCwGTV4k to control my Sony STRDH770 Home Theatre Reciever, it will not control anything other than the Volume up and down.

There are 9 codes on the remote programming wizard to try, and none can adjust power or input on the reciever.

These are simple IR codes that i can program on my Logitech Harmony fairly easily.

Please have the Sony Home Theatre codes reviewed and updated. There is clearly an error in the database.

I own 4 different Sony HTRs and none of the codes work with any of them. This is an error on Google's part and can be corrected easily.

=====================================================================

Additionally, when needing to power on my LG projector and Sony STRDH770 simultaneously, it cannot be done via HDMI-CEC because they do not communicate at all.

It would be useful for the CCwGTV remote to be able to send out two IR bursts on pressing the power button to turn on/off two devices simultaneously.

Thanks and regards.

Hey there veermaharaj,

The Chromecast remote codes are something that we are always looking into and updating. If you have the time, would you be able to submit feedback via Google TV stating what devices aren't working properly? We take all feedback seriously, and the more feedback we receive regarding a specific feature, the more likely we are to prioritize it.

I look forward to your response, and if you have any other questions or concerns for me, please let me know! Otherwise, I'll lock the thread in 24 hours.

Best regards,
Jeran
