[PS4]

Wish we had fast forward and rewind options. :mellow: They are the L2 and R2 buttons on the dualshock4 if anyone can figure out what keys that matches up with.

 

When I enable HDMI CEC with another TV and lug the PS4 to the TV which supports CEC the fast forward (R2) and rewind (L2) as well as next (R1) and previous (L1) work on the tv's remote control through CEC. I wonder if some genius could figure out what keystrokes would emulate this. :D

 

Unfortunately some buttons just aren't mapped to keyboard keys. However if you are using a Harmony remote you can map some buttons to FLIRC Keys, and other buttons to TV remote buttons.

I believe he is referring to the pause/break key, which maps to the PS4 Home button. We need to manually record it via cmd prompt, however as per my previous post, I have not been able to do this due to the error: Warning: Cannot open USB Device whenever I try run record from cmd.

I just purchased the Flirc for my PS4.  I plugged it into my laptop and installed the software under Win 7.  I was able to run the GUI to program it, but from the command line I get no response when trying to run "flirc_util record pause". It just returns immediately to command prompt.  I tried reboot as well as unplugging dongle and plugging it back in.

 

Any help?

I had this once, and every other time I just get the "Warning: Cannot open USB Device" message.

Unfortunately Plex PS4 app currently requires a PlexPass subscription.

 

When the PS4 is in rest mode it does not respond to any key presses, despite the USB keyboard receiving power via the option to leave USB ports active.

 

The only way I can see getting the PS4 to power on is via HDMI-CEC, however I'm not sure if this is possible, and not just the other way around? (where the PS4 powers on the TV).

Tried rebooting PC, unplugging/plugging module back in, GUI not running. Same message. I can open the GUI and it connects straight away.

 

Netflix controls are limited but adequate, have worked through application on USB Keyboard and recorded information. Will take a look at Hulu and Plex tomorrow. Sadly it looks like the application must be written to allow keyboard commands, as the NBA GameTime App doesn't accept any input from USB Keyboard.

Ok thanks I have that part sorted.

 

When I run flirc_util to record the pause key action I'm getting:

 

Warning: Cannot open USB Device

 

I am running cmd prompt as Administrator, Windows 8.1 Professional. Anything I am missing? Configuration within the GUI is fine, tried with GUI application both running and not running if that makes any difference.

 

I was running the command flirc_util record pause

And I'm assuming it should prompt for a keypress input after that?

 

I have also seen mention of the command record_api (with suitable parameters), but the support section just mentions using 'record pause'.

I've just bought a FLIRC today and am in the process of trying to set up with PS4.

 

Using the Flirc iR-USB Harmony Profile it appears no commands are loaded (as in, when I try assign a button on my remote to my FLIRC, there are no keys/commands available), so I think I will have to "teach" the Harmony for every key I want to use? Whereas the XBMC profile already has all the commands mapped it appears.

 

Once I get that done I'm happy to spend the time doing whatever is required.

Great, this solves a huge problem for a lot of people. I'll try find where I can buy one in New Zealand and give it a go asap.

Has anyone used this to control the Netflix App on PS4 with a Harmony remote?

If this works I will be ordering one straight away :)
