Got the replacement Flirc yesterday Jason and it works like a charm! Thank you! I'll be mailing the faulty one back to you shortly.

That works for me, Jason! PM incoming with my address. Thanks!

Okay, ran the util with the correct parameter and came up with the same as @CartesianJohn: C:\Program Files (x86)\Flirc>flirc_util.exe unit_test [E] lib/libflirc/firmware/fw_4.0.c fl_ver4_set_interrupt(369): timeout [E] lib/libflirc/firmware/fw_4.2.c _fl_unit_test(132): error recording test0 Flirc Not Okay Looks like I'll need to initiate an Amazon return.

Oops, I think I messed up. I forgot to include the "unit test" at the end of the command. I will have to re-run it when I get home tonight. Sorry about that Jason!

Thanks! I thought since my symptoms were a bit different than yours that maybe Jason could offer an easy fix. He'll probably respond tomorrow and we'll see.

I am having the same issue as the OP, no response to IR from my brand new (from Amazon) Flirc USB 2nd gen. I have a Gen1 that I have been using for years, so I tried uploading an old config to the Gen2 and it seemed to work, but then became unresponsive after a couple of minutes. Now it seems to be completely dead. I forced a firmware upgrade via "Advanced" in the GUI and it downgraded the fw, still doesn't work. Here are the results of flirc_util.exe, first without the flirc connected to the PC, then with. Thank you for any help you can provide!
