i have a remote that's not support by skip but i have the IR codes. How/where do i put these into the skip app?
You can try learning with that version, it's fairly close to release. I'll probably have 1 or 2 more as things get refined.
If that doesn't work, you can send me the codes. -
Thank you. This was helpful. I think I understand what's going on. Give me about a week to work this out, do some tests, scope some signals, and I'll likely have an update soon. But I'm certain I understand now.
@furyflirc Tell me a bit about what you were doing when this happened. Was it sitting for a while and you pressed a button only to find it didn't work? Did it seem to fix itself after 30 seconds? Were you using it and it randomly stopped? Any chance you know the last button pressed?
Regardless, I have a suspicion of what it is. I have thrown the remote, hammered all the buttons, sat on it. I can't reproduce it. However, I threw it in my bag, and when I pulled it out when I got home, it was stuck. I saved it by powering it externally, brought it to work, measured the power, and see that the processor is not in sleep. So it's not stuck asleep. It seems like it's stuck in a loop. Something called a watchdog timer should crash it after 5 seconds when it's stuck, and it's not. So it must be when that feature is disabled, and that's only in a couple spots. Stay tuned, and thanks for all the logs. Although they don't point to this, they point 'around' this. -

Hi @jason since I update to gd911a15 did't have any crash/lock/dead , but today I click the button Profile A and it light two times and then it was dead, any other button nothing, so I follow the steps:

I got a new message that a new update to install : [0.9.957] , Should I install this?
...- Database - SMSL - SU-8
- Firmware - Bug fix that can cause power leak

Firmware - Bug On power up where LED ring may not dislay
I removed from PC, but remote is dead. I removed the batteries and put it again, same dead.
I think the batteries got depleted, took almost 2 weeks...
I think the crash/dead is auto restarting the remote, so I did't notice any "dead" behavior like old firm versions, but still is consuming batteries somehow... that is my thought not sure if the auto restar after crash is something that you added recently or is just my assumption.Thanks, very much appreciate the information. I did push an update v0.9.957 with new firmware that catches another issue like this. Please try it and repeat the process if it happens again.

Macbook apparently has blocks on unknown devices being plugged into the USB ports.
This is not possible.

Use a Panasonic or Samsung profile on the inteset. Whichever is not in your room so it won’t conflict.

What you are actually doing is pairing remote control buttons with keyboard keys. So inside the windows media center controller are the keyboard shortcuts specifically for windows media center. If you are using KODI those have different keyboard shortcuts and you should use that controller. If you want both, you need to add them both to the harmony. Does that make sense?
-
1. Play/Pause/OK - I tried erasing and reconfiguring these Harmony buttons using the Flirc UI, but every time they get mapped to Play.
Can you clarify what you mean when you say they get mapped to play? Are you in the Controllers->Kodi or Controllers->WMC?

We found a lot of issues bugs and edge cases. We were much farther than I anticipated. This next update. is where I thought this version would be. But we probably have 2 more until we are ready for this to roll into beta. The things that we are focused on is making sure that recording is reliable. I really don't want users to walk through, sync, only to find a bunch of buttons not working.
So once we are confident in the recording, feedback, and stability, we will focus on re-editing and testing direct from the wizard.
Locking thread, please test and follow up here:Thanks for all the patience and feedback.

Shot in the dark. Go to Settings, Accessibility. Enable Advanced Admin Panel.
Click on the wrench in the top right corner that is now there.
Go to brands, and add this. Let me know if it works.- 1

Yes, I'm really sorry. I found a bug in the remote that can cause battery drain and I'm going to push an update shortly. Give me a couple more days.

I updated the remote to 4.12.23. Prior to the update, I don't recall the version that was on the remote but the batteries lasted ~2.5 months. With 4.12.23, the new batteries lasted ~2 weeks. In addition, the remote has locked up several times and required the batteries removed to restore operation.
I have another update to solve one more edge case for battery drain. Regarding lockup, I need help to determine the reason.
When it locks up, wait 30 seconds, do NOT remove the battery.- After 30 seconds, Does the remote respond? Details please.
- Without removing the batteries, via USB, connect to the SkipApp. Is the remote detected, does it respond?
- What is your current Firmware Version
- Go to the admin panel. go to the Logs Tab, Go to the sub Remote Logs tab. Hit refresh a few times. Attach the remote logs.
-
Go to the USB Tab and attach the results of the following commands (show us if anything is stuck)
- "proc" Short for process
- "butt" Short for buttons
In the future, any posts without these details will just be removed. Really sorry, this thread is the bane of my existence. People not returning RMA's. People not following up with necessary details. A bunch of remotes returned had hardware issues that were in earlier builds. But I have 6 remotes, no lockups anymore. So please help me help you.

Fairly close to a release candidate. List of what's still left is at the bottom.
Critical - Learning requires both remotes to be facing each other and about 1 inch apart.

Hi Jason,
I was trying the latest firmware it offered me (4.13.4-0-gaa92d6f) and as soon as I start recording, it says it can't connect to the server, when clicking on the first remote-button - even though my internet works. Am I'm doing anything wrong?
Skip App version: 0.9.955.7168 [learning]
Regards,
LennardNope, this seems to be new, I'm looking into it.

I should be finished midweek. I’m almost there.

I'm afraid that I still have, very occasionally, that the remote "freezes" and I need to briefly disconnect one of the batteries. No big deal, but I thought you might want to know.
Thank you for letting me know. I will add something to the next release to help diagnose this.

Understood. I was confused between device firmware vs software version. Will do!!! Also, why can't i choose dark mode for the app? It says "Follow System Settings" but why can't i just choose?
It’s not implemented yet. With such limited team we’re only focusing on needed features before jumping back to fixing style, animations, etc.

The device that controls flirc. What is the profile you are using on the skip app?
Where is the flirc located on the PC that's in your room?
It wont turn off / turn on the computer. Can't do that over USB. You can go into sleep mode though. Pair a code in the Flirc USB app in media keys, suspend/wake. Add this to the Power Up and Power down activity.
Any one have this supported

You’ll probably need a Flirc USB
