Will do. Thanks again!

I think we're there! Whilst I was trying to pair, my harmony remote was on set on an activity... So the flirc GUI would not recognise any of my button presses. however, once i selected one of my individual remotes (tv for now), the GUI recognised the button presses from the remote. So it's working! I'll try and get it to work with plex now. Thank you Jason for your help on this, very much appreciated!

I haven't gone through any pairing process, how do I do that? What is the GUI? Is that the computer?

Thanks for the quick response on this. Plugging the flirc straight into the macbook, no USB hub. I cleared the configuration and the forced the firmware upgrade as per instructions... This has helped, It now seems to be stable, so no more cursor jumps or random typing. But it the flirc / software still not picking up my button presses from harmony ultimate remote, so I still can't configure. I know the macbook retina has no IR, but was hoping the flirc would provide the IR??

My Flirc just arrived today and it's a nightmare! I'm trying to get it to work with my MacBook Pro Retina (OS X) and Harmony Ultimate remote. As soon as I plug the flirc in the cursor on my mac starts jumping around the screen. When I go into safari it starts typing random letters by itself. I rip out the flirc and Mac is ok again. I plug the flirc back in, it appears a bit more stable, I launch the latest OSX 10.7+ Software and try and assign/programme basic setup buttons with the harmony remote. Flirc does not seem to receive any signal from the remote! and then the software start jumping around again! The lots of messages about buttons being taken. What on earth is wrong with this flirc device?? Is it meant to work with MacBook Pro Retina and the harmony ultimate remote?? Am I doing something wrong?? I was hoping to use it with Plex on my Macbook, but did not make it past this first basic stage. Can someone please help / advise? I would be so grateful.
