I recently bought a Flirc so I could use it on my Chromebox w/ OpenElec Plex. Prior to buying it, I could not access the Context Menu with my Rosewill MCE remote, so I figured keyboard commands ("C" in this case) are the way to go to make sure I have access to everything that was intended.
I programmed my Flirc the way I wanted it, and I'd say it is 80-85% working how I want. I do experience oddities, like pressing the down button. Sometimes when I press it, the menu I am navigating goes down 1 click, and then goes right back up again. Sometimes I have to press and hold the down button for it to go down and stay, and sometimes doing that goes down 2 or 3 menu items when I only wanted one. I thought this maybe had something to do with the timing intervals, and I've tried 0-7 and there does not seem to be a sweet spot.
I also have issues with my back button. I have programmed it to be the Escape key, but when I press it, sometimes it acts as the enter key and goes deeper into a menu rather than backing out of it. I have cleared my configuration many times and completely re-programmed it, and this behavior is pretty constant.
Has anyone experienced issues like this? Perhaps Amazon sent me a lemon? I'm not really sure what to make of it as I think I've done everything right.
Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

After screwing around with it for a while it seems the problem is the Rosewill remotes. I set up one of my Harmony remotes with Flirc-Kodi as a device and I've had no problems since. Just a shame I couldn't re-use the Rosewill remotes for this purpose, but oh well, as long as it's working.
