all-
i recently assembled my tv-b-gone; however it does not work. the green led does indeed light up and pulse when the button is pressed, however no infrared commands are sent when viewed by camera )and no tv responds to the unit). can anyone spot any issues with my soldering? any specific joints/components i should check?
thanks!

In general, solder joints should be smooth and shiny, and look like this:
