Sorry, I'm trying to catch up. Can you upgrade to firmware version 3.3?

Nope. Doesn't matter. I should clarify somewhere. Your the second to ask uncouple days.

Yeah usb org needs to update my vendor name which will make its way to Linux. Make sure enable sleep detect is enabled in the GUI. Any key will then wake the machine. If you record the wake key, then only the wake key will wake the machine

when you are recording, record the same button twice in a row. You might be using a remote that alternates signals on each consecutive press.

So it seems like there are a few issues with the firetv. I don't have any problems with mine. Although I'm using plex. Let's work together. Plug a keyboard in your firetv, and let's see if we can figure out what the keyboard keys are for the desired functions. I'll get the GUI updated as soon as possible once we've identified the correct keyboard keys. I'm booked until saturday, then I'm back on flirc.

can you snap a picture of your fios remote for me? Also, just shoot me an email at my support address and I'll give you a new firmware image. I need a remote like this and I can update the firmware.

I'm using schroot. I like the fact that it shares the home directory, and haven't figured out how to do that with just chroot.

the configuration stays on the device. You save the configuration with: flirc_util saveconfig <filename> It won't automatically load. You have to: flirc_util loadconfig <filename> Let me know if that answers your question.

Yes, absolutely, point it at the ceiling. Flirc is very sensitive.

Why the unhappy face? Chris! is actually helping with documentation. Day job is killing me this week. I have time off after this week where I will pick up the pace again. I don't think the GUI is missing anything the commandline has anymore other than these; ability to delete indexes (will get to this) Record API (don't inticipate on putting that in, this was probably what you are referring too. Wayyyy to complicated.)

Oh, you can definitely wake up your machine. Make sure 'sleep detect' is enabled in the advanced settings of the GUI. Power on is the feature that's still in progress. ** EDIT ** Also, make sure you are on v3.3 of the firmware. If not, you must have the 'wake' key recorded which can be found on the keyboard controller view. On firmware version 2.x, you have to enabled sleep detect, and record the wake key. Only that new key will wake up the machine. On firmware version 3.3+, you have to have sleep detect enabled. If sleep detect is enabled, any key will wake the machine, but if the wake key is recorded, only the wake key will wake the machine.

I'm using mint, and based on debian. I can't stand what ubuntu is doing to linux. They aren't helping anymore. Looks like you're right. I'm having trouble getting a system up and running. I don't want to manage multiple virtual machines or a machine with 100 distributions on it. So I'm using chroot on one system and it's working out nicely. But I'm going absolutely nuts because 12.04 isn't installing and everything I read is pointing to EOL. I'll just need some time to figure out why it's not working.

Poweron doesn't work yet. I'll need a software update. I keep wanting to get to it, but my day job is killing me. Taking next week off so I'll address it this weekend. Very sorry for the inconvenience, it should only take me a few hours.

Ah okay, I don't have a solution for you right now. I just checked your linux version. 12.04 is a few years old now and is end of life'd. I'll need some time to resolve this. I'm really sorry. Best bet is the beta that I published. Just have to deal with the upgrade loop bug. Just upgrade every time you launch, should be fine even though it says it didn't upgrade or there is still a newer version.

don't worry, the xbmc controller in my GUI is just a bunch of keyboard shortcuts conveniently labeled so you don't have to look them up. All you need is media portal's keyboard shortcuts and you can program them manually with the GUI keyboard controller.

You should leave your interkey delay at 3.. Thank you Yawor.

updated, you can give it a shot now

Let me try and fire off a static compile. Are you on 64 or 32 bit?

You're very smart. I'm going to do everything I can so that bringing this feature, it will work on any version of hardware/chip.

my pleasure

want to give this a shot? https://flirc.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/200712548-Using-the-ZADIG-Utility

should be fixed now. No longer compiling in mint, but compiling in a chroot ubuntu 64 utopic clean room. Something seems funny with the fonts, let me know.

my pleasure

ohhh. Firetv uses bluetooth, flirc uses IR. If you want to use your firetv with your computer, this unfortunately wont work with flirc.

Did you use the firetv window in my GUI?
