It works, the ir-led’s are blinking. That’s the nice part.  
But my stereo doesn"t react…

Then the selected ‘remote’ isn’t compatible I think…

I have to say the IR is a bit fuzzy.  
An Arris 2952 tv box worked fine until 6 months ago.  
My tv also doesn’t respond anymore, but my receiver does…  
Nothing was moved or anything.  
I’m keeping the Broadlink and Tuya wifi-2-IR units in the loop 🙃

No. Write to Athom I’d suggest.

Use the next app now. Less possibilities, but works fine. Think the leds are not located well
