Infrared TV Remote. What wizardry is this, and how can I use it.


so have tv remote. i've been playing around remote controlling things around house, , finding different remotes can read codes from. smart tv has 2 sided remote, , when first looked over, didn't see telltale 'ir window' @ front lets out ir light. hmm, rf remote, thought.



opened , no, it's still ir remote, whole case made of 'opaque' plastic lets ir through. neat. wizardry.

but furthermore, has 2 ir leds both shoot off signals. well, has 4 ir leds, 2 sets of 2, 1 each per remote orientation.

i've never seen such thing. through phone camera appears leds don't flash same pattern, camera artifact. what's deal? remote using 2 leds, differently modulated, send 2 sets of serial data @ time? different wavelengths of ir maybe? or distance gainer 2 identical leds?

would arduino able fire off 2 ir leds different protocols simultaneously?

put ir sensor, every button sends consistent code serial monitor, i'm wondering if i'm picking half signal since receiver 1 wavelength.
