Hi guys

I'm trying to build a simple remote on an arduino uno using raw codes and the iremote library for my brother who has cerebral palsy.
Basically what happens is you push a button and it sends 4 button presses (3 digit channel number and ok/enter) from a list of pre programmed channels he likes.

The weird issue I'm having is that even though I've copied the codes for the xr2 remote and they work perfectly on my box they do not work on the box on his tv.
The codes original came from this site and also [Link: irdb.tk]. I had to convert the hex to raw format.

I believe his box is a PA PX001ANM and mine is a PA PR150BNM according to the xfinity website

I have the ir led literally an inch away in both tests but his box seems to only receive one or two of the button presses randomly.
I have no idea why his box would have such a huge issue. I would assume that since I'm repeating codes from a remote that works on both boxes there shouldn't be any compatibility issues.
Hopefully someone here has an idea because this is all way over my head at this point


Here is everything I have currently. I only have basic programming skills and this is the first time doing anything involving circuitry so please forgive me if there is a glaring issue somewhere.

My arduino setup is basicly 3 PWM -> 100 ohm resistor -> 38 khz ir led -> Ground

Codes copied from here and irdb that work on my box
