Hi everyone, Happy New Year!
I've just set up a new new Kodi install on Ubuntu 18.03 LTS. Used to be on Windows 7, worked fine.
Since moving, and inadvertantly upgrading the firmware, I have encountered issues during playback of a video (movoe, TV show) and live TV.
Initally I can use the remote (Harmony 650 with FLIRC dori) to pause, step forward, step backward, etc, but if I leave the video to play for a while, kodi no longer responds to the remote, or keyboard.
I have replicated this on a laptop, where, oddly, it responds to the USB mouse ok but not the same remote and FLIRC or even the built-in keyboard.
I did discover that by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del brings up the Ubuntu lock screen dialog successfully, and if I cancel that manually after a few seconds, the remote starts to work again for a while.
Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Kodi 18.4
FLIRC firmware 4.9.3
I tried some verbose logging, but there didn't appear to be anything in the logs that correlates with the remote stopping working.
When I used the TV remote (Sony Bravia remote, RMT-TX300E) and mapped most of the keys to the kodi profile, I couldn't replicate the issue, so seems to be affecting my Harmony remote only.
I would like to downgrade my firmware to its shipped version if possible please - I couldn't find it only anywhere, so can you PM me a link or something?
Thanks in advance
Paul
