I'm wondering where you captured the IR signal. If you captured the IR signal
on the transmitter led, make sure the resolution is high enough so you can
see the carrier. Then you can make sure there are no errors in there.

It might be better to capture the IR signal on the gpio signal going into
the SoC.
