    Is there any data for specific TV model in the database? I have a Sony 55A95K.

    I think the setup wizard could use some polishing, as there's no questions about what input you need to be on for any of the activities when you first set them up. It took me a few minutes to figure out that the wizard had completely left those out. Now that I have the inputs all working correct, I can't figure out how switch between two activities without completely powering down my entire setup, then powering it back up with the new activity. a - watch tv (tv on tuner, a/v set to tv) b - watch roku (tv on hdmi 2, a/v set to tv) c - watch kodi (tv on hdmi 4, a/v set to tv) Pressing the activity button doesn't appear to do anything othe…

    Hi, First of all, I love my new remote. I was able to set it up so well I was able to pull the batteries out of my TV's and soundbar's one as wel being able to perfectly handle my HTPC and turning everything off and on. This something strange happened. This noon I had to tweak a little bit of settings. Since I don't have a windows PC I had to go to my grandma and than drive half an hour home. Just to realize that my remote only gave a red ring. Sometimes 1 sometimes 3. Always about half a second (I think) I was able to recover it since I get along with my neighbors where I apparently had to update firmware and to configure it all again. That last one is probably…

    Do we have an approximate shipping date yet?

  6. I know the remote is supposed to be able to learn my other remotes, but I've had problems with other learning remotes working with my Optoma remote. Before I order the remote, can I confirm it will work with the remote for a UHZ50 projector?

    Hi, I have a smart TV and a Satellite STB Some actions require the remote to navigate the STB some the TV I want to be able to navigate the TV menus for Disney+ or netflix, then swap to the recordings on the STB. can I set a button to toggle the control between the STB and TV? this would be for the menu / home button and the D pad and select.

    I absolutely love the Skip 1S. Building a new hardware remote is hard. Making an interface to that remote that is easy to use is really hard. I know, I've tried. Please take my observations with nothing but respect for the work you've done. General: I love that you can export your remote configuration to a JSON file. This is hugely powerful, beyond troubleshooting. Everything is right there in plain text glory. With access to the configuration I could Clone an activity. I exported the remote configuration, opened it up in VSCode, copied the A activity entry, updated the Activity ID to B, reimported, and it just worked. Change the color…

    Hi Yall, Sorry if I just completely missed this on the website but is there somewhere we can see a list of devices Skip 1s is compatible with? I saw a reference to a "device database" but have not been able to find that either. This remote is very exciting but my receiver and tv are getting up there in age, and it would be great to confirm compatibility before pre ordering. Cheers,

    I downloaded the Windows software for the Skip and I have nothing to open it with to install. Does the Skip support Windows 7 or will I have to install a new OS to use it? Thanks.

    I just wanted to say thank you for making a great remote!! I've purchased 3(so far) and am extremely impressed. They will be replacing Harmony devices. The one thing that really blew me away was the fact that the Skip 1s was able to power off my 75" Sony TV where the Harmony would not work at all even after learning from the Sony remote. I do have one feature request for SkipApp. Please add a menu to switch between different remote profiles, as in Living Room Remote, Bedroom Remote, Family Room Remote, Office Remote, etc. I'm using it on my Mac Mini M1 and don't see a way to switch at this time.

    Apologies, but I'm unable to find any reference to assigning simple keystrokes (such as the letter "A" or "W") to the buttons on the remote. Is this not possible, or am I missing something?

    It was pointed out to me that those of you who pre-ordered aren't getting the updates that the Kickstarter folks are getting. I'm 100% sorry about that and want to rectify it now. As we post all future updates to Kickstarter, we'll also post them here. For now, here's the most recent update posted by Jason yesterday, Dec 1. I'm going to go ahead and lock this particular thread, just so the only things posted here are updates. Feel free to discuss in another thread. Update on Schedule Quick update to keep in touch with all the backers. Production started about 2 weeks ago and final assembly will take place on the 10th. If all goes well, we should be shipping unit…

    Hi, I just found out about this today, went over your Kickstarter (great video) and YouTube videos. Here are my 2 cents: Why do you hate the Stop button? I have seen this on a few new universal remotes that have come out since Logitech killed Harmony, and it has been a common complaint from prospective buyers. There are instances where the Back button simply can't take that roll. Eg, Kodi for Android/Android TV, the back button will keep the media playing, and simply go back into the menu, they will not allow the back button to function as Stop. You can't use a Flirc to simulate a Stop Button for an Nvidia Shield, as there is no keyboard command for it. Of cours…

    Would it be possible to use an activity to launch a specific app on a Samsung Smart TV?

    Hi, I currently have an older FLIRC device connected to my HTPC and see that you guys are making a universal remote. I have a Harmony 665, but since Logitech discontinued their entire line, I was looking into a new one. How does one switch profiles/devices on this remote? I have 2 different rooms with 3 different receiving devices.
