Jason,
Congratulations on the baby!
I have used the Microsoft - Windows Media Center, and HP - OVU400103 (that's the part number of the HP IR receiver) profiles.
The FireTV with FLIRC was even receiving commands for my Blu-Ray player (in the uploaded image above). The only profile it didn't seem to pick up commands from was my Comcast Cable box (also see above image).
I hope that helps!

I kept mine for a different environment, it's very useful. My solution was to buy a generation 1 FLIRC for nearly $90 from another source. I will continue to monitor for updates.

Jason, thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I did copy the profile from the gen 1 to the gen 2 with the same results. I have attached the gen 1 firetv profile, and the gen 2 fire tv profile before I overwrote it with the gen 1 profile.
I have 7 devices and 5 activities on the harmony one.
Devices: MS Media Center, Samsung TV, Samsung BD Player, Yamaha Receiver, Fire TV, Comcast Cable Box, Light controller
Activities: Cable, Media Center, Blu-Ray, Fire TV, Chrome cast
I attached screen shots of the devices.
The Harmony 700 is set up nearly identical with the same results.
Thanks again for all of your help and such quick response!

I have had a 1st gen Flirc for a long time and it has been working great plugged into my FireTV. I have a harmony one remote that controls a windows 7 media center and the fire TV with no problems. I just "upgraded" to the 2nd generation Flirc and when I use the media center the Flirc picks up directional and enter commands. I accidently rented a movie that way.
I now have 2 nearly identical setups in my house, one uses windows 7 media center and fire tv with Flirc gen 1 and harmony one remote, the other uses windows 7 media center, fire tv Flirc gen 2 and harmony 700. I have swapped the Flirc's and get the same results with the gen 2 picking up the commands.
Any idea how to get the Flirc Gen 2 to ignore the commands like the 1st gen did?
Thanks!

With the gen2 plugged in the FireTV would receive directional pad, enter commands from media center and bluray. Never a problem with Gen1. Just plugged the gen1 into FireTV and it worked. Gen2 i used the FireTV profile.
I still love the product.
