How about the following, can you measure resistance 1 and resistance 2 in the pic attached?
-
I have a crystal on my PCB, it's the metal box. The top of the metal is grounded. What's the resistance between the shield of the USB and the top of the crystal. (Do this when it's not plugged in). Then can you check your USB mating shield on your motherboard with the ground your connecting the flirc to?
-
I don't get it, my shield is grounded. so if your computer grounded the mating shields, it should be fine.... Anyone have a multimeter?
-
so you soldered your ground on your outlet to the USB connector?
-
Yes you need the latest release which is 1.2.7 and firmware 3.0 Go to advanced and click on sequence modifiers
-
The manufacturing process, ends up putting the USB connector on a bit bent. That seems a bit extreme, I'll have to look into it, however, functionally wise it should be fine. You can even bend it back a bit, it's not going to hurt it. I apologize and I'll send one to you when I can address it. Shoot me an email at support at flirc dot tv.

really sorry you had trouble. I'm not sure why the device got stuck in the bootloader and more so, why windows always has trouble installing drivers. Honestly, I regret doing custom drivers, windows has been a nightmare and end up spending 90% of my time trying to figure out why windows is doing something stupid. I hope it's working now, and I hope it was worth the trouble. It's just me here, so sorry for my delay.

Flirc with Fire TV and Harmony one (key press repeated)
jason replied to sjors86's topic in General Questions
did you pair your remote using the firetv gui window in my application? -
I would love to say it's supported on 8.1, and although it works on my copy, I'm afraid to say there are some pretty consistent problems with it. This is the main one. I have yet an opportunity to look into why. If there is another machine you have, you can do the pairing with your remote, then it should work just fine on 8.1 with your previously paired remote. Does that make sense? I'm really sorry, I just need the time to reproduce it, which I haven't had yet. Have you tried running the installer or the gui in compatibility mode?

"Volume Down" stops working after a while with Harmony 650 & Openelec
jason replied to beublo23's topic in Firmware Bugs
would have never guessed that. Awesome you figured it out and thanks for posting the results. -
the firetv is a proprietary RF remote Flirc only understands IR (infrared) = (
-
No idea. I can look into it. What version are you using if ff?
-
what power button are you referring too? On my GUI? Which button?
-
Controllers-> keyboard. Then manually pair the key combinations That make sense?
-
Amazon offers you only those buttons on their remote. It's possible there are other buttons supported, but it's not clear which. Since flirc is sending keyboard keys, just figure out which keyboard keys and functions you need to map. You can hook up a keyboard and try and figure out the keys, but each app could be different.
-
Mine is behind my television on a wallmount and doesn't skip a bit. It will be absolutely fine behind the computer. I have not made an announcement yet, but there is an option that might be better, although not sure it's going to work with the case you have: http://www.streacom.com/news-item/introducing-flirc-se/ I will be making the announcement in the next day or so, it's a second product made for going inside cases that support internal IR modules.
-
Very strange, not sure why the stystem would need a keyboard, I'll try and reproduce that.
-
let's do a remote session.
-
yes, as long as they have different remotes paired, otherwise you'll get double key's paired. Make sure you're on the latest firmware, 3.0, and that you have sleep detection enabled in the Advanced settings menu of my GUI.
-
Use the media center keys in the GUI to do the pairing. See the attached. Sincerely, Jason
-
okay, so there `are actually two devices inside flirc to the computer. A generic USB device which is the keyboard, and a special device you talk to. If the GUI isn't finding the device, it is not seeing the special device. Can you expand the keyboard tab in system device manager, do you see the flirc device there? You'll know if you disconnect it. Otherwise, it's just having a problem reading the device and enumerating properly.
-
When you fire up the GUI, is the device recognized?
-
can you post your saved configuration?
-
I'm sorry, I missed some of your post. You might just need to reboot, make sure the GUI is closed to, if it's opened it might be holding the device hostage.
-
Only one keyboard suggests that that's your system keyboard and not the flirc keyboard. You can double check by double click it. Check out my screenshot. My vendor ID is 20A0,0x0001 You can find that by clicking on the device. I bet my device has the wrong driver, if you find it, and uninstall it, and then scan devices, windows will restore the proper driver. It's probably one of the Universal Serial Bus Devices at the bottom.
