I’m working a project to do this with a remote that doesn’t support the target device. If you’re looking to do this without a remote or in a way that doesn’t need the flirc for input, only output, you could still use my setup instructions to get the ir sequences you need to use with sendir. I’ve geared this towards using a Raspberry Pi, but it’ll work on any Linux system. I haven’t written instructions for general linux systems, but if you add a user named “pi”, or modify the setup script, it should work on any Debian/ubuntu system. Be aware there’s a performance issue that i h

I got my POC working, but as expected it's slow. Each key press needs to invoke a script separately, and long press doesn't work well at all. It does work, however, and it's usable even. My next iteration is going to be attempting to write a C daemon with the SDK instead. I'll share the code if I get it working.

Trying to figure out how to use the flirc to send IR commands is pretty daunting. For starters, the blog post won't load: http://blog.flirc.tv/index.php/2017/08/06/sdk-release-linux-rpi-ir-transmit-support/ I've tried to cobble together various ways to do it, but I have seen three different flirc_util commands mentioned that don't work, finally finding the one that currently works with software version 3.25.3, which is the "sendir" command. My use case I would think is common, I want to use a remote to control a device the remote doesn't support, so I want Flirc to receive one comma
