I didn't mean the extension of the command code by inverting one of the start bits. The Streamzap really uses one more bit. In the LIRC world the RC5 start bit which is fixed to "1" is not counted as individual bit. So translated to your notation, the Streamzap uses 15 bits, not 14 like the extended RC-5 or 13 like the original RC-5...
