fxr Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Hi, I have been using my FLIRC device on a few devices for a couple of years including Ras Pi's and currently my Pivos Xios DS box with largely great success. Its arguably the best money I have spent in all my HTPCing days I have had this one little issue that has been bugging me though. As I want to get towards having one remote for all my devices, i.e TV (on/off, Source, volume basically all i need), a TV/Sat Receiver Box (BT Vision atm) and my XBMC box. I have nearly got this setup exactly how I want except for the fact when I am issuing commands to my TV/Sat receiver box (while on another HDMI port) via the remote, XBMC is still getting these commands and 'doing stuff' that I don't particularly want it to be doing. Can anyone think of or offer some options for a way round this? - I don't believe I have the ability to sleep/wake up via a remote on the DS - my feeling is to try to find a way to somehow disable FLIRC/XBMC from accepting remote commands on a button press.. until that button is hit again. Is that a feasible plan? and if so, can anyone offer some direction on how I would go about making it happen? - or do I have any other options? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytsejam1138 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 A Harmony would take care of this problem. Due to the fact you have activities as well as individual devices programmed in, so when it's sending a command to your TV only your TV will get the command. Flirc will have it's own separate device and commands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budwyzer Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 I awhile back and Jason said he'll put it into a release. Mine Flirc is sitting to the way-side until it comes in and I'm just using a wireless keyboard. :mellow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 Yup, still going to put it in. I need enough feedback no the current feature-set before implementing more. I really haven't gotten that much feedback and what I have gotten has been mixed being hard to distinguish if these were new problems, or problems people are now reporting on the beta.
