Infrared Files

Organize, rename, and edit GhostESP IR files

On this page

Directory Layout

  • /mnt/ghostesp/infrared/remotes - Individual remotes captured on-device
  • /mnt/ghostesp/infrared/universals - Library files with many commands
  • The Infrared UI reads from /mnt/ghostesp/infrared/... when the SD card is mounted.
  • CLI ir learn writes new files as Learned_<protocol>_<address>_<command>.ir, or Learned_RAW_<timestamp>.ir for raw captures.

Flipper IR Libraries

GhostESP reads standard Flipper .ir format. Download packs from Lucaslhm/Flipper-IRDB.

Universal IR files are available at Momentum Flipper Firmware. Download and place them under infrared/universals.

Built-in Universal IR File

In addition to SD card files, GhostESP includes a built-in Universal IR file with popular TV POWER signals. This file doesn’t require an SD card.

Append New Signals

  • Choose Add Signal while a remote is open to append a newly learned button.
  • Easy Learn suggests button names; otherwise you will be prompted via the on-screen keyboard.

WebUI Management

  • Connect to the GhostNet AP and open the WebUI.
  • Browse to the file manager tab and navigate to /mnt/ghostesp/infrared/.
  • Upload .ir files to the appropriate folder or download existing ones for backups.

Tips

  • Keep file names short; the UI truncates long names in lists.
  • After mass uploads, back out of the infrared file view on the on-board display UI to refresh the list.
  • Back up your IR folder before flashing new firmware or reformatting the SD card.
