jtconte Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 I’m a newbie to Flirc. Purchased it so I could control a 2019 Nvidia Shield Pro with my URC RF20 remote which controls equipment in a cabinet. Setup the Flirc on my iMac for the Gen 2 Shield remote and used an older, no longer used, Roku IR remote to record the key presses. Success! Then I discovered that the universal Samsung TV remotes Menu command also caused the Shields System Menu to open. And the Up, Down, Left, Right and Select commands as well. So I found a very old TDK CD Recorder remote and used its Display button to record the Shields System Menu command to see if I was on the right track. That didn’t work. I’m clearly not getting it so I’m asking for some guidance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean you recorded the command with flirc and my software? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtconte Posted April 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 Yes, I used the Flirc software to re-record the System Menu button (upper right corner button) of the Nvidia Shield Gen 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 Let's make sure it's nothing wrong with the remote. Can you try recording it again and seeing what happens? Does it let you or does it say that the button has already been recorded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtconte Posted April 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 (edited) I appreciate your help! When I tried re-recording it using the same Display button on the TDK remote it said it had already been recorded so I used a different button on the TDK remote and it recorded successfully. But it still has the same problem- both menu's open when I use the TV's menu button. Edited April 10, 2022 by jtconte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 Is that the only button that doesn’t work with the Nvidia box and this remote? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtconte Posted April 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 The directional and Select buttons too. I chose totally different buttons on the TDK remote and it still happens. I must be missing something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 Make sure ADB debugging is off. You turn this on to side load but it disables USB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtconte Posted April 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 (edited) I don't even know what ADB debugging is. Do not see that in the Advanced settings window, which I never looked at till now. Are the Up, Down, Left, Right, Select, Menu, etc. remote codes the same in my old Roku remote as the Universal Samsung TV remote, the Shield Pro remote and the TDK remote? Don't different manufacturer/device models have unique codes for the same buttons? Edited April 11, 2022 by jtconte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtconte Posted April 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 I did a Clear Configuration and tried using the Roku remote again and it works perfectly. No interaction from the TV remote Menu button! I appreciate your assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
