Basically, the title. It’s an old Toshiba flat screen. I successfully “taught” the keyboard the power button code. The keyboard will turn the TV off, but not on. The power button on the remote is just one button, a toggle, like normal. Of course, the remote will turn the TV on and off, by pressing that one button. I can’t imagine what is wrong, it must be the same code for on and off, right? I mean, the things aren’t that complicated.

Thank you.

EDIT: It works if I program a button on the keyboard other than the power button. So I programmed button “C1” as the power button and for whatever reason, that button will turn the TV on and off. Weird. It’s the keyboard treating the power button differently.

    Having dabbled with remote codes I can only assume that the remote sends a different, albeit common, signal. My Chromecast remote for example does not send (via Bluetooth) a traditional signal code for power, but a signal name that only really works with some devices.
