  2. "Button already recorded", "No more space for new buttons", incorrect keys mapped

    in General Questions

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    I have the same issue, at first I thought I had solved it by downgrading back to firmware version 1.0 (which I had issues with as well), but it seems this did not solve the issue.

     

    With Flirc v1.0.0-rc4 I had the following issues (at some point):
    • No more space for new buttons when programming a button.
    • Unable to erase buttons.
    • Unable to clear configuration with Flirc GUI (it says it is cleared, but it is not).
    • Unable to upgrade firmware to version 1.0. Flirc GUI application crashes.
    • Buttons wrongly mapped.
     
    At first I tried installing Flirc v1.0.0-rc3 to see if I could downgrade with/to that version. That did not work.
     
    After this I installed Flirc v0.96 and did the following:
    • Clear configuration with Flirc GUI, this worked.
    • Tried to downgrade firmware (using upgrade option in Flirc GUI) to version 1.0 with fw_1.0.bin, this failed with Transfer error and Flirc GUI crash.
    • Restarted Flirc GUI and tried again to downgrade to 1.0, this time the downgrade to firmware version 1.0 with fw_1.0.bin succeeded.

    After this I was able to program buttons again using the Flirc v0.96 GUI.

     

    After programming multiple buttons for my Logitech Harmony One however I noticed again the issue described in the first post. I think I first noticed it after a power down (to stand-by mode) of my Windows 7 PC. When it was powered on again some buttons did not work anymore and some had different response than how it was programmed/recorded. After this I had again trouble erasing buttons and recording/programming buttons.

     

    Hope this can be solved in a future release soon because it indeed makes the Flirc more or less useless. :-(

     

     

     

    Next to this I have some requests (I am new to this forum, so I hope it is OK to post them here):

    • Make text for firmware verion in Flirc GUI smaller. I have my mediacenter desktop resized to 150% and firmware version is unreadable.
    • If Button already exists add option to overwrite (next to Cancel and Redo).

     

     

    Let me end by saying thanks for making Flirc available for us. It is a great product. Keep up the good work!!!

     

    Cheers,
