If you click on my name here, there should be a message button on the top right.

Thanks for following up. The latest is always embedded in the software. You can go to file->advanced and force an upgrade.

You can configure the computer to control the mouse with numpad keys. Which you should then be able to use with the skip and a flirc usb, however you can use an application launcher and keyboard keys to switch between the two. I created apppad.io to try and solve this but we haven’t put much work into it and I don’t think the performance in the pi would be great.

can you post a screenshot?

Can you message me here, let's set up a way to real time chat so we can solve this together. I test them all out before sending, do you remember the app working at all? If you open the app, enable admin mode in the 3 dots, accessibility, and go to the wrench tab. there is a log tab there, go to the log folder. Send those logs over. I'm thinking it failed an update, but worked initially.

It wont be faster. The reason it's slow, is it needs to 'open' the device every time it calls sendir. You can use the dll to create an app that leaves it open so you can send it messages? What are you trying to do?

Alright, I'm really sorry, I restarted it and have a script running to restart it if it hangs. It is not, it's only temporary. It will be bundled. IR learning is still in active development. I am updating the IR decoders all the time behind the scenes for new devices and remotes. It would be a gigantic pain in the ass to keep shipping a new version each time, especially since there is no way to not include alpha work. It will be a part of the app soon with possible dynamic checking for updates.

Yes, recently published and only available to a few buttons. By default, it's enabled on the 'power' button always. It will be automatically enabled if toggle buttons are available for either the play/pause or mute button. You can however enable them if it doesn't automatically do so.

Which? I would love to know so I can get these fixed and if you want to post your flirc config I'll get something added to make this easier and automated. Really sorry for all the trouble you had. I am out of the loop with this one, can you point me to that so I can get some documentation going? Yes, recently published and only available to a few buttons.

https://github.com/flirc/sdk That repo has example code which is the same code that ships with flirc_util. Should compile on anything with GCC / mingw setup properly. Headers are documented and example code should be enough to copy and pasta.

Download my software and then plug the device in. Ignore the update, and go to the shield profile (since it runs on android). That’s controllers -> shield at the top menu. Pair remote buttons by hitting go. Unplug and plug into your android. Make sure adb debugging is off if it doesn’t respond to your remote. Let me know if you get stuck.

Strange. No worries. Send me an inmail. I’ll drop one in the mail

Blimey, I fixed it, server crashed, thanks for letting me know. Let me know if you have trouble.

Can you try the latest release candidate?

Most tasks, especially media watching will be fine because they use hardware acceleration. In my warehouse, where it was 80F, it took 2 hours to run a burn in test before it reached throttling temperatures.

Are you still having trouble, I saw someone have success in another thread, but can't find it, was that you?

Using my pairing software, you can select any keyboard key combination in the keyboard controller view.

Some nice updates as we prep for release, and hope I can get some feedback and testing. Now when we add a device, we have a shortcut to easily change and jump into some settings: CleanShot 2024-12-20 at 19.25.13.mp4 Also, something that always bothered me was super long text throughout the app. Now we will start replacing these instances with something more elegent: CleanShot 2024-12-20 at 19.29.01.mp4 Also is our first implementation of not destroying user configuration if you need to jump back into the wizard. This is tricky as there are a lot of different intentions of the user. If they replace one tv for the next, if they purposely change a mapping, if they remove a device, etc. We tried to come up with the best way to preserve any settings the user has done while also swapping/changing devices.

I support that protocol, should be fine. I'm puzzled, are you going through the recording process? You can find out how to do that here:

Patience, you have one person doing all the support, supply chain, shipping, customer support, development, etc. Send me a PM regarding this.

The software can learn your remote. Have you tried? If it didn’t work, what was the error message? please enable the admin panel, go to advanced with the wrench in the upper right corner and then go to the last tab called learning. Press and hold a button and send me the text

Have you tried learning it?

I'm glad and I'm sorry for my poor instructions. Thanks for letting me know and thank you so much for sharing that the recording worked. I'm so very sorry for the initial headache, grateful for the patience.

So the earliest version of hardware had a bug. It would deny an update without the ability to check USB state, without this piece of hardware working perfectly, the remote can get stuck indefinitely. To safely enter bootloader mode. Take out the batteries. press the middle cursor button, and the back button. while plugging it into the computer. See attached. If successful, pressing any button will blink the LED 3 times. If so, start the app, it should force an update. If not, message me.

Saw your other message. I’m sorry. I’ve had a really really shitty week. It’s just me that does support. (I’m the owner) I’ll help on your other thread shortly. Really sorry.
