+1 for this issue.
flirc v1 upgrade from fw 3.11 to 3.12 reports as successful but disconnecting and reconnecting reports that fw is still 3.11.
I attempted to manually update using fw 3.12 bin file posted in another thread by @jason. This results in an error to contact support. If I close and reopen the gui it tries to resume the fw update. The gui then reports it is successful but once again 3.11 remains.
