  1. I just love the design of the flirc case but thought it would be impossible to use one together with any of the available NVMe adapter boards for the Raspberry Pi 5. Then I saw this post at the pimoroni forums: https://forums.pimoroni.com/t/nvme-base-flex-cable/24576 Could it be possible to fit that (or any other) NVMe adapter into the Flirc case? Did anyone try? Is it planned to release an updated Flirc case which has room for such an adapter?

  2. I'm guessing the simplest way to deal with this issue is when we add long press functionality (or whatever we end up doing). Make a quick tap play and a long press of the same button pause. Or vice versa.

  3. Hi all. Just wanted to give back a little. I am testing out my new Google TV Chromecast: https://store.google.com/product/chromecast_google_tv I can confirm that it actually works PERFECTLY with the flirc! I am running with one of these USB C dongles: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07T8Z54M8/ That model isnt available anymore but I am sure it would work with most any other similar dongle. The important thing is that it has the power delivery (PD) port. You are going to want a really good power supply that is rated for high-amps, like the ones meant for the Raspberry Pi 4 as using the included one or a generic one you might having lying around did not work (the device boots to a power error screen): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TYQRXTK I have the power supply plugged into the USB C PD port in the dongle, the flirc in one of the usb ports and an Ethernet cable so I can turn off wifi on the CC. I then plug the output into the CC. All is good. For programming, I am running a URC MX-980 remote and use a generic set of IR codes in its database. I programmed the "NVIDIA Shield" buttons which gets me all of the nav control of the included CC remote including u/d/l/r/back/home. I also programmed the "Full Keyboard" which also works well. And "Media Keys" also works so you get play/ff/rw/skip+/skip- which are not on the included remote. I think I found my go-to streaming device! Ernie
