Looks like my SKU is marlin, but trying other firmware did not help either. While my Flirc is working (even if not 100 perfect all the time) on other devices it absolutely does not transmit any input on libreelec on my pi4.
What else can I try?
Try this one.https://flirc.com/software/flirc-usb/firmware/flirc.marlin.release-v4.10.5.bin
Can you also do one more smear after you plug it in?

@jason how we can get notify somehow is there are new RC versions or any kind of version of the FW or the app?
Today by luck I found out a huge update, I wanted to edit a button from my control, I connected to the pc and open the app and popout of the new update.I have a mailing list, otherwise here is the best place to. I will start doing blog posts when I have an update as well.

Thanks Jason. Btw, this is my first time coming back after using the Skip 1s for a few years to try out a new config, and I just wanted to say thanks for all your hard work. You were helpful last time I posted here, and now you're being helpful again. Much appreciated!
Thank you, really means a lot.
10 hours ago, Pete Zaparti said:Update: In the meantime, I was able to get what I'm trying to do by just editing the JSON. It's nice that the configs are JSON btw! Makes it easy to parse what's happening under the hood.
I was going to suggest this, I wasn’t sure how the GUI would react though. That’s great. Nice job!
Yes, that was the plan. Even when it gets sent down to the device, it does it as a smaller form of JSON called CBOR. You can go back and forth. I don’t keep all the data though, just the buttons because I have bytes of memory.

It’s a soft limit. We just need to figure out how to handle the ux. I’ll prioritize this. No technical reason.

Can you ssh and type ‘dmesg’ and send the output?
Yes, you can downgrade, figure out which SKU you have and then grab the one to try from here: https://flirc.com/software/flirc-usb/firmware/

Can you please attach your whole support file?

If you plug it into the machine you upgraded on, it works?

Version published!
Thanks everyone for all the helpful feedback, support, and testing. I will post the next one relatively soon. I will lock the topic shortly as well since any feedback would be general. I will also post a feature request board soon so I can gather feedback on how to prioritize our long list of tasks.-

Hopefully it attaches properly and won't fall
It’s not supposed to come off. If it does, it will crack or break. What you are experiencing is expected.

Another thing my USB FLIRC lost it's IR lid. I tried placing it multiple times but it'd always fall off.
I'll send another lid with the remote.

I'm sad my original backer remote is not working properly. If I plug it to the wall or USB connector it works on the currently set devices.
PSA: don't use cheap batteries on your remotes!
Yes, cheap batteries would do it. I use rechargeable. They don't last as long, but it prevents these issues.

I can probably repair it if you send it in.
I caught a bug under extreme conditions. Low voltage, nominal temp, the voltage regulator would get stuck latched. It would only happen if you had batteries and plugged into a computer and unplugged the cable. It was rare where and you'd have to do it over and over to reproduce it. But that doesn't mean it wouldn't happen to yours 40% of the time. These things get multiplied when you mass produce or have subtle variations in chip manufacturing etc. One of the difficult things about hardware. It has to work 100% of the time under all conditions. Some of which you can't imagine to test under.It would leak current from the battery. Not a lot, but basically a constant drain that will never go away, even if it's asleep. The only remedy was removing the batteries and plugging them back in. It could have been the reason for the corrosion.
I added a diode to the 6th version of the PCB. I would add one by hand to your board as well as try and replace the springs. But the plastic could get damaged, etc. -

The machine I set it in does not detect it either.
I've got to be honest, given the condition of the remote, being that it's an A05 model, ~2-3 years old, and it wont connect to either machine, I don't think it's worth either of our times trying to fix it. Can I send you a 50% off coupon for a new one?

I forgot something important my batteries corroded the battery terminals and only works while plugged in with a cable. Does this influence it being detected by devices and the Skip 1s App? I've been told you can clean the terminals somehow ? Any tips?
Do you have another machine to test it on? You set it up at one point, when was the last time you set it up? (meaning it was configured on a machine)

I'm using USB C 2 C and it powers the device
Doesn't necessarily mean data is working. If it doesn't show anything in lsusb, it's not connected to the machine. Try another cable. Try reversing the USB-C connector on the remote side. Does it work in another machine with the same cable? This topic is specifically to help me focus on release candidate issues. I'll create a new thread with these posts and move them there since it's not specific to this release.

Remote is not showing up at all.
- Check in another PC. If it doesn't show up, replace the chord.
- Are you using a USB-C to A adapter, maybe it's not good.
- Try reversing the cable
- Check your steamdeck hub, or try without the hub.
If it doesn't show up in linux, it's not going to show up in the app.

Hello @Jason
I have attached the Support File to this Message.
Thanks in advance
Kevin
Thank you, I found the bug. Very upset with myself. I worked on this for months, tested so thoroughly, wrote simulations, and at the end, I optimized one small thing and created the bug. I'll have an update shortly.

@jasonam I missing important libs to run and connect the Skip 1s remote somehow? How do I fix?
I think the lib errors and warnings you can ignore, it's normal. Just to be clear, if you double click it, does it launch the GUI?
If it does, can you attach the remote. Then create support files and attach them here. I'll look at the logs. It should have an error that will give us a clue.

Neither version. newest beta or the public release are working properly.
Yes, As my user name says on Steam Deck.
My primary linux machine is a steamdeck. I don't have any issues. Did you change anything, are you running a a different desktop environment than the default KDE? etc.
