  1. Alpha Numeric Text?

    in General Questions

    Posted

    UPDATE:

     

    I found a solution that worked for me and thought I would post it for anyone who needs this solution. Eventghost and FLIRC Utilities would not work for me, or I could not get them to work. So I downloaded a program called AutoHotKey and modified a script to do SMS styled text from the remote.  The script is in this post: http://www.autohotkey.com/board/topic/119547-simple-doubletriple-remap-question/

     

    To use it simply:

    1. Download and install AutoHotkey
    2. Copy Script from linked post above (or in quotes below)
    3. Paste Script into new Notepad (text editor)
    4. Save with the extension .ahk
    5. Open new saved script

    I have also placed it in my startup folder so that it is always running on my htpc. Enjoy.

    You don't need to run the flirc.exe to use your flirc usb stick with a remote. The GUI exe is just used for the configuration. Once configured, the stick "knows" by itself what to do when receiving a command from your remote (remote command/button press > IR signal to Flirc stick > stick translates IR command to a keystroke).

     

    Strange but I have run into an issue where it does not work from boot. If I boot or restart my computer, Windows 8.1 pro, Flirc doesn't seem to work. Once I open the GUI it works fine, also if I then close the GUI. It will still work from then on. Even if I sleep the computer and wake. But once I restart or turn off and back on I have to open the GUI one time to get it to be recognized. Do you have any suggestions for why this would be the case?
