Yup, because windows is a piece of shit. Number of issues, last one being that we had to renew our app certificate, unfortunately that changed our app signature, and now windows says it's a different app. I don't know how they've gotten this far. Just download the new version here: https://flirc.tv/products/skip1s-remote-universal-remote-control?variant=43489094729960# Backup your config, you'll probably have to uninstall it and re-install it and doing so, you'll lose everything. You can write them angry emails, it's out of our hands.

3 months now.. and not a peep or a question or followup from anyone at flirc. @jason @Nathan BTW: almost all of moderators for this forum haven't logged in for YEARS when you look at their profiles. Time to houseclean?

Running 0.9.966, and it detects an upgrade is available. I choose update. It downloads and starts the install.. then fails with the following error: App installation failed with error message: Windows cannot install package SkipApp_0.9.971.8482_x64__nk6j7xazwq5t8 because a different package SkipApp_0.9.966.7695_x64__sddpyax1dmvqm with the same name is already installed. Remove package SkipApp_0.9.966.7695_x64__sddpyax1dmvqm before installing. (0x80073cf3) Pretty sure this used to work in the past. Any Hints?

I did installed following the command for debian based (https://flirc.com/ubuntu-software-installation-guide) curl apt.flirc.tv/install.sh | sudo bash I reinstalled as proposed `libhidapi-dev` `libhidapi-hidraw0` `libhidapi-libusb0` but flirc_util still does not work with the same issue. Here is my architecture executing `unname -a` : Linux raspberrypi5 6.6.31+rpt-rpi-2712 #1 SMP PREEMPT Debian 1:6.6.31-1+rpt1 (2024-05-29) aarch64 GNU/Linux What is the appimage version on the website that you propose ? Can you share the corresponding link ? Thanks

Absolutely, you can see here that there are 2 Yamahas listed: If I click the first one, I see this: If I click the second one, I see this: If I search for my receiver in the first one (RX V-1000), it isn't present. Let me know if any or other diagnostic or log would be helpful, I can provide them.

Could you elaborate on this.

Seems like my flirc stopped working with my PS5 entirely. I had to create a bot to push the PS button on the controller, which still works obviously, but no matter what I program, the flirc isn't working with the PS5. It recognizes that a USB device was connected, and a keyboard still works, but the flirc seems to not be receiving commands.

Hello, just wanted to drop my experience with this update. I definitely notice that the animations are smoother. I would still appreciate a sort of "reduced motion" setting, because they still chug on my laptop, but it's still improved. I noticed that when making an activity, the drop down to select model/brand seems to close when I try scrolling. I also noticed that some brands are now split with some models under one/the other. For example, Yamaha Audio, my RX V-1000 code set was under the second Yamaha category. Thanks for the improvements, hope to see more soon.

oh that’s so strange… How did you install it? With the deb package manager? Being that is a shared object, it’s not in the application. Can you try re-installing it? apt-get install libhidapi-dev libhidapi-hidraw0 libhidapi-libusb0 What is your architecture: `uname -a` Also, did you try the appimage version on the website?

Most significant backend re-write to date. We focused strictly on performance and getting those animations super smooth. We also cleaned up our action editor pop-up to match our original design. Now it's always centered on the remote so we never cover up our tips window which will eventually be more useful. Let us know how it works for you and if you have any trouble. Estimated public release is about 2 weeks.

I installed Flirc and flirc_util on raspberrypi5 (based on debian). The GUI doesn't lauch. When launching the command line: sudo flirc_util version I have the following message : flirc_util: error while loading shared libraries: libhidapi-hidraw.so.0: ELF load command address/offset not page-aligned What can/should I do to progress in executing flirc_util ?

Latest update is live

Hello @jason Do you have an update on this patch? Thanks.

Hi, When I was trying to update to the latest software version (via the in-app prompt) I got an error about the software being already installed under a different version. In order to get around this I uninstalled and then reinstalled the new version. However now when I launch the app I cannot see any of the activities/devices I had set up. Is there any way to retrieve this data? Is it possible to retrieve it from the remote? Thanks for your help.

Hello, I'm trying to record keypresses using flirc_util. It worked for a number of keys, but when I try to record k it gives me: - PS C:\Program Files (x86)\Flirc> .\flirc_util.exe record k Press any button on the remote to link it with 'k' [E] lib/libflirc/translate_v2.c translate_v2(297): not a valid keyboard key: k usage: flirc record 'word'Available Options: escape, return, enter, escape, backspace, delete, tab, space, F[1-12], printscreen, scroll, pause, insert, home, pageup, pagedown, end, right, left, down, up, wake, media keys: eject, vol_up, vol_down, mute, play/pause, stop, fastforward, rewind [E] lib/libflirc/firmware/fw_4.0.c fl_ver4_set_record(474): Key does not exist Error, button exists - The error comes before it asks me to press a button on the remote.

There was an error in your file: We print that the file is invalid now when this happens. But there is more wrong, there is a ton of duplicates entries, so I removed them. Caps incorrect. And some bad ascii. I also changed some so they will correctly map, like enter to CURSOR ENTER. But there is CURSOR UP, and later in the file is UP, I don't know what the difference is and they have different pronto codes. Pioneer - 2013.json

It would really be nice if this were to get fixed...

Hi there Actual Skip Beta and Flirc dongle with actual firmware in use. Using Apple TV from your list and also my recording of the original Apple silver remote, both of them can't control Play/Pause wether with the Play/Pause button nor with the Enter button on a MacBook Pro. Does anybody have suggestions, how this will work? Thank you

Released, get ready for the next version.

Hello, Is it possible to edit the configuration file and just load the codes from e.g. https://files.remotecentral.com/ rather than learning each code? If so, what should be the format of the code (the hex codes, such as here: https://www.remotecentral.com/cgi-bin/codes/marantz/receiver_0/ ? (I plan to use Flirc together with an ethernet-IR bridge, so I don't really have a remote to learn from. At the same time, I cannot use profiles as I want the numpad keys. I could try the learing procedure using the bridge as transmitter, but that would take a lot of time as I would need to enter the codes one by one in the transmitter) Thanks! Jörg

Posted in another thread, but try the below. I did it with one of my remotes, and it fixed it. Temperature dependent... Put it in a plastic bag, put in the freezer for 5 minutes. Take it out and try again. It's a cold solder joint, manufacturing fixed in a subsequent build. Please let me know if that works. Honestly, I'm much more conservative with firmware updates on this product. I have night sweats about bugs that drain batteries so I'm favoring stability over features right now.

Count me in with this issue...

Agreed, I have been enjoying my remote but the random issues are frustrating. The batteries died in my remote the other day, and since replacing them, the remote no longer turns on or off my Denon receiver. OK, no problem I thought, I'll just go resync the settings. However, when I plugged the remote in to my computer and launched the app, it told me a firmware update was available. I clicked update, thinking that would help.. boy was I wrong. Now the remote appears to be completely bricked. Does anyone have an actual solution to this? None of the steps I found seem to do anything. Windows doesn't even recognize a USB device is connected.

I'm not sure what the "return" button is, but I tried these steps using the "back" button (the circle with arrow to the bottom right of the center button) and this didn't work. I don't see a way to get the remote to return to normal.

How do you deal with the small mouse movement in MouseKeys? I can get the mouse to move one pixel at a time, on each button press, but while the IR signal repeats when I keep the button pressed, the mouse down movement is not repeated...
