IR Remote config creation

[WoGGo]

I’ve got an Odriod N2+, running 19.3.

I used the How to configure IR remote control guide.

I’ve gone as far a pressing all the 17 used buttons on my Sony remote; here are the results:

There are appear to be 17 unique scancodes there, but I can’t match this up with anything from the guide; have I done something incorrectly?

[WoGGo]

After some more reading, I assume to create my own protocols, I would exchange my own scan codes for the ones found here:

[[protocols]]
name = "mecool"
protocol = "nec"
[protocols.scancodes]
0x52 = "KEY_1"
0x50 = "KEY_2"
0x10 = "KEY_3"
0x56 = "KEY_4"
0x54 = "KEY_5"
0x14 = "KEY_6"
0x4e = "KEY_7"
0x4c = "KEY_8"
0x0c = "KEY_9"
0x0f = "KEY_0"
0x45 = "KEY_MENU"
0x55 = "KEY_CHANNELUP"
0x15 = "KEY_CHANNELDOWN"
0x13 = "KEY_VOLUMEUP"
0x17 = "KEY_VOLUMEDOWN"
0x0d = "KEY_HOME"
0x1b = "KEY_RIGHT"
0x5a = "KEY_LEFT"
0x06 = "KEY_UP"
0x16 = "KEY_DOWN"
0x1a = "KEY_ENTER"
0x19 = "KEY_MUTE"
0x05 = "KEY_BACK"
0x02 = "KEY_INFO"
0x44 = "KEY_STOP"
0x08 = "KEY_PREVIOUSSONG"
0x0b = "KEY_NEXTSONG"
0x59 = "KEY_POWER"
0x4a = "KEY_REWIND"
0x48 = "KEY_FASTFORWARD"
0x46 = "KEY_PLAYPAUSE"
0x1f = "KEY_FAVORITES"
0x4d = "KEY_EPG"
0x04 = "KEY_RECORD"
0x51 = "KEY_ESC"
0x42 = "KEY_RED"
0x40 = "KEY_GREEN"
0x00 = "KEY_YELLOW"
0x03 = "KEY_BLUE"
0x01 = "KEY_LANGUAGE"
0x09 = "KEY_SUBTITLE"
0x12 = "KEY_CONTEXT_MENU"
0x11 = "KEY_COMPOSE"
0x58 = "KEY_CONFIG"
0x18 = "KEY_TEXT"

So I would substitute 0x52 = "KEY_1" with 0x1ae215 = "KEY_1" etc?

Would I also change protocol = “nec” to protocol = “sony” given I have a Sony remote?

Repository for AmRemote & Meson IR Remote Controllers

The Repository for AmRemote & Meson IR Remote Controllers aims to be a One Stop Resource for Amlogic and meson-ir compatible Remote Control Units (RCU) used by the majority of Android based set-top boxes. Our goal is to centralize access to original, unaltered remote configuration files for use with CoreELEC, and other forks of the Embedded Linux Entertainment Center (ELEC), as well as Android TV. The AmRemote & Meson IR Repository consist of 2 parts: a file server hosting hundreds of remot…
