IRsend command not sending anything

[davidchezmoa]

Describe the bug
Cannot Send IR command, I got a cmnd not valid message but I don't know what could be the correct command.

Firmware:

• Version [1.17.308]
• Device IR sender
• Chip/model: BK7231N
• Device config IR send pin 7

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to '(http://IP/cmd_tool)'
2. Enter the command 'IRSend {"Protocol":"NEC","Bits":32,"Data":0x8166817E}'
3. Click 'Submit'
4. See error

Error:IR:IRSend cmnd not valid [{"Protocol":"NEC","] not like [NEC-0-1A] or [NEC 0 1A 1].
Bad argument

Additional context
If I do the exact same thing on a real Tasmota device it just work.

I didn't find any documentation on how the IRSend command work on OBK so I asume it work the same way as on Tamota ESP based device.

Thank you for your help and I will be happy to provide more information if needed.

Hey, I think you should try the syntax from the error message. We don't h ave JSON parse there yet, altough I may add it for you...

I did try to mess around with the format in the error message, but I did not quite understand the way I should convert my initial data from my JSON.

If you have a hint it would be nice, otherwise I guess I will wait the implementation of JSON parsing 👍

After some diging I found out how to use that format, thanks to point me to the documentation.

Also find out that it doen't work for my Pioneer AV receiver, it seems there was a bug in the library IRRemoteEsp8266 till version 2.6.4, I wonder if the openBK firmware is built on a recent version of that library or is totally a diffent thing ?

here a link on that issue for tasmota arendst/Tasmota#6100
