Ok... finally got an update from the Harmony team. The final changes to the Dreamlink T2 and Formuler z7+ device profiles have been made, and should match the specs in my first post in this thread. Unfortunately, to receive the changes, you must delete your existing device and re-add it.
@SAM, I have the Harmony team on standby about the dedicate power buttons -- is this still something that is on the development team's list?
Thanks!!
Timmy, you are correct... some of the keys aren't matching up. I've requested a revision from the Harmony team, so I can only assume that the updated mappings will come soon. That being said, you are correct that the key names in the Harmony profiles are minor -- it's the functionality that's important.
In terms of ease -- you are also correct here. As a developer, I know that this is a relatively easy request. We're talking a few lines of code at most. Obviously, the coding language can change things a tiny bit, but if you were to write this in pseudo code, you can get an idea of how simple it really is...
In the IR handler code,
...
if (keyCode === 36 && !isPowerOn) {
turnPowerOn();
} else if (keyCode === 37 && isPowerOn) {
turnPowerOff();
}
...Anyways, thanks SAM for getting this over to the Formuler team. Really appreciative of the quick support on this box all-around!
Couldn't agree more with Timmy. Having the extra PowerOn and PowerOff keycodes programmed on these boxes would be very useful. In the meantime, while we are crossing our fingers and hoping Formuler will make this change in the next update, I have went ahead and got Harmony to add new device profiles for both the Formuler z7+ and Dreamlink T2 boxes (thanks to a similar thread on iptvtalk.nl). So, starting as of 2 days ago, when you go to add either of these devices thru your Harmony app, you will no longer have to choose the previous models (Formuler z+ and Dreamlink T1). Also, while the profiles that Harmony just rolled out work perfectly fine, I asked for a slight revision in order to normalize some of the button names to match the Harmony setup better, as well as consolidating the buttons between both devices, as the keycodes are interchangeable across both devices. Anyways, here's the final request that will be implemented by the Harmony team in the next day or so...

SAM/Formuler team, what do you think the feasibility is of accommodating Timmy's request? Is this something that we can get in a future update? Once we have it implemented and know the codes for PowerOn and PowerOff, we can ask for one additional update to these profiles from the Harmony team.
Thanks all!
