For several weeks I'm now trying to get my Flirc to work with my Ouya, but without luck. I followed and tried various other things, but can't get a single remote command to work when Flirc is connected to the Ouya.
I can safely assume that the USB port on the Ouya is working, as any memory stick, USB mouse or cable based USB keyboard works - any USB device I connect works on the Ouya.
My Harmony One works with all other devices and send proper IR commands. I used the profile "Flirc > XBMC" for my activity
I program the Flirc through a Mac. Using flirc_util, I get following output after a "fresh" install of the flirc:
sh-3.2# ./flirc_util version
Flirc Version v1.2.2 [v1.2.2]

When I take the flirc and connect to a PC for example, it works. I can control a slide show and do other simple things using my Harmony.
When I connect the flirc to my Ouya, nothing works. And whenever I had it connected to the Ouya, it seems to "loose its memory": When I connect it back to my Mac the flirc_util now shows:
sh-3.2# ./flirc_util settings
Settings:
sleep detection: NA
noise canceler: NA
inter-key delay: NA
state: 0
builtin profiles: NA
Device currently in bootloader
I tried this a few times, and can reproduce it consistently... Starting the flirc software on my Mac will re-program the flirc with fresh firmware and proper profile. Plug it into Ouya - everything gets lost...
Does this sound like a hardware problem of my Flirc?
