Also IR codes have a preamble of "sync" bits that let the receiver auto
gain circuitry stabalize.  All the codes I've seen also contain some sort
of checksum because the bit error rate is assumed to be significant.  The
real payload data is somewhere in the middle of a burst and might be
tricky to spot.  You need to look at several different burst.
