Linux Improvements and New Tooltips Hello to all of you who subscribed to our Skip updates and features newsletter! The second update brings you only a single changelog, but there are a few nice little quality-of-life improvements. You can find the full changelog below. Here are the highlights: Linux support continues to improve. The highlight effect on buttons in compact mode has been fixed Mouseover Tooltip on Device Sometimes, it's the little things. Now, when you hover over a device on the Activity and Buttons Panel, you'll see both the manufacturer and model information. This change provides you with helpful data at a glance. What’s Next As always, we have multiple upcoming goals. In the near term, we expect to have Linux auto-updates to match Windows and Mac updates. In the longer term, we are fully delving into remote control learning that takes full advantage of the advances we have made in library database management. If you missed it, check out our library update blogpost!

Are you still experiencing this with most recent updates? It certainly should not be happening, but the most recent beta has greatly improved USB communication which might fix sync issues.

All the buttons change when you switch activities. So if you have a macro on red in Activity A, and switch to Activity B, there will be nothing on red.

I don't think so. The HUB doesn't have any kind of IR input, does it?

Happy to work through the rest, but I wanted to start here. I have an Apple TV 4K as well, and the Skip is working fine controlling it. Just to rule things out, have you made sure the controls you want are on the remote in the Skip app? So up is on the up button, etc?

Presumably you're using a Flirc USB with NUC, right? Add something completely unrelated to the Shield like a home automation device or something, doesn't matter what, as long as it has a bunch of buttons. Then train your Flirc off those buttons using the Flirc app with the Kodi controller. What you're experiencing really probably shouldn't be happening, but this would definitely prevent it.

We actually have an email written and ready to send, but stopped because we realized the most recent update 0.9.93 probably needed a full blogpost to explain what was going on. Plan is to publish both at the same time. When the email goes out, it'll include .93, .92, and .90 changelogs. Excepting 93, it's mostly just adding devices and performance improvements, so not super exciting, but we should hopefully get it finally sent out in the next little while. After that, I think they should start going out more regularly.

You can do it that way as well, you'd just add the same devices for B and C

Hi @DaveNJ, it might be this should all be under a single activity (or possibly two). Are Netflix and Prime being run off your TV or your cable box? I'm guessing it'd be your TV. If so, I'd say make activity A your cable box/HDMI, and activity B your TV. Then assign some unused buttons to switching between Netflix and Prime, perhaps this would be a good use of the color wheel.

Ahh, so just a category issue. We can add it over to audio and that should fix it then.

Unfortunately, I'm not finding an example of this particular device. May need to learn it from the original remote.

Just doublechecking, is the IOTAVX something other than an Onkyo receiver? If so, I will create a new thread for it so we can be sure not to miss it and get it into the app

I'm afraid I'm not sure what's happening here. Jason and the team are currently in the process of shipping about a thousand remotes to people, so he may take a sec to respond. In the meantime, could you grab the log for your remote and the app? Instructions below. My only other suggestion would be to try downgrading your remote's firmware back to whatever it was and checking again. You can find a list of firmwares and software to downgrade here: The safer move, though, would be to just post your log and see if Jason can figure out anything after shipping is done.

I'm not experiencing this myself on 4.12.18. Can you confirm that all the commands are still assigned to the power button, like in the screenshot below?
