The negociation code will use the highest bit of the field, so
the lowest value. You mark multiple bits so that you can XOR the mtt
of the sender and the receiver while doing negociation (the same way
you do speed).
In theory, you are also supposed to XOR the values given by
irtty/irport and the one used by the dongle, but as you can see this
is not done properly.
0x7F -> can do any mtt except 0us
0x03 -> can do 10ms and 5ms mtt
0x01 -> can only do 10ms mtt
The mtt is specified by both the performance of the encoder
chip and the infrared led (but most often the led is the limiting
factor). So, have a deep look at the spec sheet of the hardware you
are using.
Good luck...
