which play pause keys are you using? Try manually recording keyboard shortcuts as well. Controllers->keyboards and then probably 'p' or 'ctrl+p', etc.
-
Not all the keys are going to light up on the virtual keyboard. Not sure why that is. Very sorry for the confusion. They should still work, let me know.

So your backup works?

I've installed firmware 3.8, have Flirc v1.4.4 and Windows 7. When I try to record the "home" button my browser launches, but the GUI moves on to the next key, so it seems all might be good. But when I test by pressing the home key on my IR remote it makes the FireTV bring up the "Your Apps Menu". Huhh?
I would go to file->clear configuration and start over. Let me know if that helps.
Yes, certain buttons will register with your main OS after recording, that's typical if you're still holding the button after recording. -
Evening Jason, sorry, I did mean to mention I had done that after reading your response to another question about Harmony remotes.
It appears the Harmony device profile I am using (FLIRC > Fire TV) has duplicate keys for "Down" and "Info" (From viewing the profile in MyHarmony), there is another profile (FLIRC > XBMC) that has the correct "Info" key but that doesn't have the Home button in there for Fire TV.
I could add both devices to my activity and choose the relevant buttons from both device profiles but that isn't ideal.
Could I also please ask, how many post do I need to make before I am allowed to view the attachments in the first post of this thread?
I'm going to get in touch with amazon, give me a day, I'll issue an update.

In the harmony software, under the flirc manufacturer, add the kodi device. Those keys are mostly the same and any that's not, you can record over. There are tons of keys there so you can associate them to your liking.
Or, you can simply add another device in the harmony, and in that activity, assign the keys to the new remote for the play/stop/pause.
Let me know if that makes sense.

I force upgraded firmware to 3.7 and re-recorded the button. Still not working.
download the new version of the GUI. Then do that procedure again. The latest firmware you should have is 3.8

I have had a similar problem in the last 2.5 days notice that the "home" button doesn't work. All other buttons function, but the home button (that used to work perfectly) no longer detects. Multiple reboots and refreshed settings on remote but no change.
In the GUI, go to advanced, force firmware upgrade, and re-record the home button.
-
Let me know, please upgrade to 3.8, that's the latest.

Another one was reported today. Let me try and get to the bottom of this. What model firetv do you have?
-
Have they recently done an OS update?
-
This product only has a receiver in it. This is all I'll say.
-
My pleasure, sorry for the trouble.
-
that's correct, you'll need a generic bluetooth receiver.
-
I don't think you paired the keybaord with flirc. The user interface is going to show you all keyboard presses, regardless if it's coming from flirc, or from your physically attached keyboard, or your wireless keyboard.
What you are seeing is the keys from the wireless keyboard, but that wont pair with flirc. That's probably bluetooth. Flirc is used to pair with an infrared remote.
Does that make sense? -
I'm just a bit speechless that someone can come here and be so mean. Thank you Yawor for your answer.
-
I think this is probably a Windows 10 thing, is that what you have? Quite a few of these are popping up and I believe it's recent due to a recent MS update. Let me know.
-
Thanks for the link, I'll need to address this.
-
Ah, that would do it, I need a way to detect language settings. Is it working better? Or is this explaining part of it?
-
Just confused because you said one profile was working and one was not, and they are both the same.
Yes, I think this is probably the profile you are selecting. Try a general TV profile as yawor suggested. -
Both files are identical. Have you tried going to file->format configuration. Give it another go.
I see two buttons recorded in both files.
-
Make sure when you record you're not holding it up to the dongle. Point it at the ceiling. Let me know if that helps.
-
Can you save your configuration, and then when one gets deleted, save it again as a different file. If you could upload both, I'd be very grateful and I'll look into it as soon as possible.

What's a kodi box?
Flirc losing firmware

Yes, next time it loses the firmware, can you open up the app and tell me if it it detects the bootloader and does an update?
