If you box receives a double digit like 44 as 4, then try slowing the timing of the IR (infrared) signal:
Adjust timing:
Flipper is set to the fastest speed, so we decrease the speed one level at a time:
Decrease:
Press and Hold Device (STB or TV) & CH- for 3 seconds til the light flashes once; This is one level. Try the Favs after each level - There are 5 levels total.
Increase:
Press and Hold Device (STB or TV) & CH+ for 3 seconds til the light flashes once;
If Flipper is at the minimum or maximum, then light flashes twice.
