  1. Send keyboard long press / not remote long press

    in How To

    Hi,

    is it possible to send a long press keyboard signal (like long press F1 or long press ESC) to the attached device with a Flirc V1?

    To be clear ... I don't want to use log key press on a remote button ... the Flirc device should simulate a long key press on the virtual keyboard.

    Best regards,

    Albert

     

    The sending of a long press is the remote sending not the software.  I tested a Rosewill RC-126 and sending long keyboard presses are possible on both v1 and v2 of the flirc.  However, harmony 600/650/700 remotes only can send a long press via the power Buttons using duration.   

    To assign a Long Press to the Harmony's you add an extra device any name like "Long Press"  - Harmony with ask you to press keys on the "original" remote Can be any old Infra-red Remote.  Tell harmony the device stays on - uses same button - then customize button Duration to 1.5 sec and make sure t=you add the extra device to your firetv activity and program guide or menu to the long press - powertoggle.

    Also, programming an long press within the flirc software breaks ok using a harmony remote.

     

  4. Amazon TV Home Button Not Working with Harmony Remote

    For every one looking for the USB Key press for Amazon Fire TV 3 Ctrl - Alt - Enter pressing for 3 seconds is the same as holding the menu button.  to close the menu pressing escape closing the menu. 

    This can be assigned to any infra-red remote via Flirc Software - Keyboard - assign to key. 

     Does not work on Harmony 600/650/700 unless you create a device for power toggle leaning the select button and setting duration to 1.5 sec.
