Convert Pronto IR hex codes to LIRC pulses then Broadlink packets compatible with python-broadlink

Do you know if this script - which works brilliantly- supports the ‘long-press’ elements of pronto codes? Thanks

How do I use this? Complete newb

Hi

I have a series of commands from the broad link database of the form:

[off]
off_command = JgB2AGk4DQwNDA0pDQwNKQ0MDQwNDA0pDSkNDA0MDQwNKQ0pDQwNDA0MDQwNDA0MDQwNDA0MDQwNDA0MDQwNKQ0MDQwNDA0MDQwNDA0MDSkNDA0MDQwNDA0pDQwNDA0MDQwNDA0MDSkNDA0pDSkNKQ0pDSkNKQ4AApAAAA==

Does your script enable me to convert these to commands that the RM python library can send?

thanks
