IR blaster-wifi

I have Broadlink mini and have not been able to program all of the remote functions keys or find anything in their library.

Are there any IR blasters that have HR-44 keys programmed for Directv satellite??

Most universal remotes can control DirecTV boxes via infrared. They all use the same IR codes. I have Logitech Harmony remotes and they work fine.

Have you contacted BroadLink? Amazon seems to say you can learn buttons if no cloud data is available.

Thanks Litzdog and Shannon.

I have a DTV remote that is fine here at the house. What I also have is an IR blaster that connects to the DTV receiver from anywhere there is wifi.

Amazon is partially correct. I have "learned" a number of functions, but have no success with other functions. Broadlink is no help.

What Broadlink has is a library of set codes that have been loaded by users. However, there is none for DTV or any of the manufacturers of the set top box.

So, I thought there might be another brand of IR blaster that a Forum member was using that they could recommend to me.

Logitech Harmony is no longer making their hub system or remotes. You may need to go with Alexa or Google play.
