## 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.
### Flipper IR libraries
GhostESP reads standard Flipper .ir format. Download packs from [Lucaslhm/Flipper-IRDB](https://github.com/Lucaslhm/Flipper-IRDB).
Universal IR files are available at [Momentum Flipper Firmware](https://github.com/Next-Flip/Momentum-Firmware/tree/dev/applications/main/infrared/resources/infrared/assets). 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.
## Web UI management
- Connect to the GhostNet AP and open the web UI.
- 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.
