What

Our HDMI switches provide only a classic infrared remote control, to control them via the Slackomatic we will replace the infrared receiver with a few wav files and a small custom-built level shifter.

How

The cheap Sindax 5 to 1 HDMI switches we got have an IR remote control that comes with a 3.5mm audio connector to plug in a cape with a TSOP383.

This receiver was plugged into the audio port of a laptop and the generated audio was captured.

That gave us 5 different audio files.

The files were post-edited using Audacity and now we can simply play them and attach the audio out from the Raspberry Pi directly to the HDMI switch IR receiver port with a small piece of voltage converter logic in between.

Data

Wav files with the recorded IR commands:

  1. HDMI 1
  2. HDMI 2
  3. HDMI 3
  4. HDMI 4
  5. HDMI 5

Schematic

Circuit (n.b: the supply voltage is actually 3.3V instead of the shown 5V. As NPN transistors we took 2x BC547B from Metalab's electronic parts stock):
