I hear you, it's a problem inherit in IR. It bothers me too, but I have an idea to workaround it and I'll push it in the next release candidate within the next 2 weeks.

Confirmed the test button is broken. I'll have that fixed. The play/pause button is because the 'toggle' flag is enabled for this button. Basically, some devices don't support play toggle, but have independent play and pause buttons. How do we do this with one physical button? We added a toggle option and this is automatically detected and added in many scenarios. This allows you to assign each play / pause key to each 'side' of a button. So when you hit it once, it plays one, and then when you hit it again, it plays the other. However, something that is invalid, is having only one button assigned to one side. What happens in this case? If I were to carry the functionality down to the remote, when I hit the button once, it sends out the first button, but when I hit the button the second time, nothing is played, and the remote would ignore every other key press. So on the remote, before sending down the configuration, we 'fix this' and assign the key to both sides so you aren't confused. However, the GUI was left as is, and you only have one assignment on either side. Here is your config when I open it up, and how to fix it. When in reality, I think we should handle this more gracefully in the GUI and remove the toggle when there is only one assignment. CleanShot 2025-11-05 at 13.38.31.mp4

Which test button are you doing? The rainbow is normal as it is sending it out. Can you attach your file as well?

Here I was thinking we'd release it after one more addition to help visualize the smart switch.... When you say, you can't add a second remote, what do you mean? Do you have one remote registered? How many remotes are in the remote manager? Pack up / zip up your support file, we'll take a look.

Artifact of our development cycle. The links have been updated with the fixes supplied to you, but with the RC version. They are identical to your software otherwise.

Try Sudo, or copy the udev rules over to /udev/rules.d/ from the static image.

Can you hold space, click the three dots and click 'leave feedback'. Can you post the zip? If you load the old app, do they come back?? But don't try that yet until you grab the zips. I'd like to take a look.

Okay, should be fixed

Perfect, thank you. There are a lot of dataset changes under the hood and Although I've posted 6 or so release candidates, I keep catching things like this. I didn't catch this one. Thank you. I'll address it this week. There are still quite a few problems when you import configurations we are working through.

Locking. As there is some confusion. Firmware is bundled with the app and you can try the latest firmware in the latest release candidate which is always stickied at the top of the app portion of the forum.

Nothing assigned to those profile buttons.

I don't see why this wouldn't work, but I'm going to grab some and test it out. Don't worry, if something is wrong with the device you received, I'll replace it.

I believe that's it. Do you have a USB -> Micro adapter you can try? Should go on the other side. Can you post a link to that adapter?
