Summary - Broken and Attempted fixes about broadlinkirtools

[callumgare]

Building on your work @ninadpchaudhari and @victorigualada I've forked and updated the project. I've made a PR to merge those changes back but in the mean time you can use it at https://callumgare.github.io/BroadlinkIRTools/

After spending the entire afternoon after this, I came to the same conclusions and ended up getting the commands from the .storage file.

I listened to all the events HA is firing when sending an IR command and the base64 is not present in any of them. So I guess there is no way with the current integration to get them as in the past.

It would be nice to create a fork of this project and at least push these findings.

I managed to get it running locally so it could be run as a docker container or an add-on.

@victorigualada thing is, it was using a ≠ service, from the broadlink direct integration, that did return the command.
Now, these new services do not return it. That's why we'll prolly always need to parse from the .storage file.
