[Power toggle triggering with Streacom version]

Ah, ok.

I thought, there is a possibility to allow PWS-triggering and action sending in parallel, just by a small firmware change.

No problem at all. I can try to execute a shell script, which will be executed on power button press.

I only asked, because the previous Streacom model worked just this way.

 

Nevertheless, thank you for your effort. Under the line: Flirc is a great product!

That's true.

 

This was just an example.

So capturing the acpi-signal is possible and makes it possible to start Kodi.

The problem here is the idea of leading Kodi to show the Shutdown Dialog via acpi-Signal Event.

A common remote-Signal would do the job.

 

So maybe I'm wrong, but currently, you do the following in the firmware:

1. Check if IR-Hash is linked to "power".
2. If so: Trigger the PWS circuit on the streacom module.
3. Else: Emit signal as "Key_..." to the system

My idea is to perform step 3 in any case:

     3. Emit signal as "Key_..." to the system

Great job for enabling the PWS-Triggering even in 'System running mode'.

 

Is it also possible to send the KEY_POWER signal to the input device.

This would make possible the following setup:

 

System off: Turn system on.

System on:

         Kodi off: Turn Kodi on.

         Kodi on: Open Kodis Exit/Shutdown window

 

With current setup this would be very difficult.

 

This is just a 'nice to have', but could be interesting for other users as well.

Thank you. I'll try it this evening (GMT).

[Power toggle triggering with Streacom version]

It works now with assigned 'power' and these settings:

Settings:
 sleep detection:  Enabled
 noise canceler:   Disabled
 inter-key delay:  3
 seq. modifiers:   Disabled
 state:            0
 builtin profiles: Disable
 

Thank you for your help so far.

 

But it works only within S5. In the running system, the button assigned with 'power' is without function.

Could you implement 'power'-key emitting in the next firmware version?

Thank you for your fast answers!

 

There is power on the flirc. I used the previous Streacom IR-Receiver on the same port yesterday and it worked (Boot from 'power off').

Additionally: I test the "Power switch state" on running system via event handling. No reaction as well. The event works, when I press the power button manually.

 

I can assign the 'wake' button, but when I press it, I get no feedback.

Neither in Flirc ('wake' does not turn green, when I press the assigned button) nor via mentioned event setup.

 

Do you have any further hint?

 

Thank you so far.

 

Edit:

 

I can 'cat' the incoming events (cat /dev/input/by-id/usb-flirc.tv_flirc-event-kbd). There is no event coming from the device when I press the 'wake'-assigned button.

Does the 'wake' command just toggle the pws-circuit?

[Power toggle triggering with Streacom version]

Hello,

 

I've buyed the Streacom version of Flirc.

Unfortunately I cannot get the power toggle to work.

It is described in the changelog under

 

• [fw] support for streacom power toggle

 

May someone describe me, how to set it up?

 

I test it in two ways:

1. The common method: Shutdown PC and trying to start it via configured button.
2. By setting up the button event handling 'When power button pressed'. After that: I check if the assigned event is emitted.

 

I tested the assigned button commands 'Power','Wake' and 'Suspend'.

 

'Suspend' just lets my System run into hibernate (and only wakes up from there).

 

Best regards

Alex
