[When can we expect an update? Tons of 3.5 issues!]

.....

So do you think it was the options in the advanced configuration?  ...

 

Unfortunately I didn't do a proper analysis to make this determination.   i.e.  I changed more than one thing at a time before trying it out.  

 

My "guess" without knowing how your code works, is that it was this combination of things. 

• 3.5 is more "sensitive" to the Harmony 650 than 3.0.   This can be mitigated for existing installations as I indicated above.
• I noticed that the default inter key delay setting for 3.0 was 5 whereas on 3.5 it is 3.  So an upgrade changes this important value.  (I verified this by re-instaling 3.0 on that Win 7 machine and looking at the differences compared to 3.5)

So after upgrading, you end up with software that is more "sensitive" and a changed inter key delay setting.   I hope that helps.   Given the littany of remotes out there, it's probably impossible to test every possible scenario before releasing a new level of software.

Can you give me more info? What are you running this on? What kind of remote are you using? Is the only problem double clicks?

After I made that post I did somre work with it and got it to work.   Here is what I did. 

• Used the Flirc software to set the delay to maximum as indicated above. 
• I also deselected all the other options that were preselected.    (I think these were XBMC & the Harmony ones)
• Using the Harmony software I set the remote as indicated in one of your links above. 

After making these changes the Harmony/Flirc combination works fine now.   While I did the programming of both devices on a Win 7 computer, the Flirc is actually installed in a small scratch built HTPC running Mythbuntu 14.0x and only acting as a frontend.     It's an I3 with dedicated Nvidia GPU so there is no lack of mips here for what it does.  

 

I should have spent more time with it before I made the post above so my apologies for the false trouble report.

I think that article will fix what I need. It seems like an issue in flirc firmware 3.5 that didn't occur in 3.4

 

Does the Harmony 650 have the same lag/issues as the 550? I find the input delay to be annoying (harmony problem).

 

Again I ask, when is a fixed firmware update planned for release? Seeing as there is no way to downgrade?  :angry:

The problem does indeed exist with the Harmony 650.   I have 3 of these and 3 Flircs.    All were running 3.0.  When I upgraded one of the Flirc devices to 3.5, it became practically unusable.   I did change the delay as indicated on the Flirc to the maximum value, which impoved things a bit, but it's not perfect, double clicks about 1 out of 15 times now, and now the entire setup is pretty sluggish compared to the other two HTPCs. 

 

If I could downgrade to 3.0 I would, but after seeing the commentary in this topic, I'm rather afraid to try it as I don't want to end up with a completely non-working setup.  

[v1.27 for Linux (fw 3.0)]

Are there plans to release an update so the Linux client (presumably 1.27 will recognize the 3.0 firmware.   I updated one of my flircs to 3.0 but would like to program the keys on a Linux machine.   It flirc client won't recognize this level of FW. 

 

Thanks.
