How to use EventGhost and Flirc for maximum XMBC awesomeness.
Chris! replied to evilestegg's topic in How To
I think the OP has used on/off but really means awake/sleep. Depending on computer specs you can wake up a computer using flirc- 13 replies

Harmony confusion -- which programming method to use?
Chris! replied to joek's topic in Remote Controls
Use the stable GUI to downgrade to stable firmware: -
XBMC observations from a new FLIRC owner.
Chris! replied to GeorgeStark's topic in Ideas and Suggestions
Correct. We were focusing on improving a firmware issue, this then was going to require a new Flirc GUI which was meant to out relatively quickly but other issues came up. Basically we should have released a bug fix but got caught up in other flirc work. Should also mention that this isn't mine or Jason's full time job: http://www.flirc.tv/fundraising/ We will get it sorted. Is your Flirc ok otherwise? -
One Remote press, continued repeating Flirc commands
Chris! replied to zaphodFlirc's topic in General Questions
Not yet - the reason the new firmware hasn't gone stable yet is because of this issue - Jason is working on it but as it's an issue that he can't easily re-create, it's taking additional time (and we have full time jobs). Jason is working on it though. -
Dare I say it the Chromecast looks really good... shame I can't get XBMC on it

Great post. (I'll probably link to it) I guess this is the work around for people who need it. -

We'll be improving the harmony support (it's something I really want too!) - we have contacts at harmony (who seems very nice). We'll get there - thanks for the patience :) Glad you're enjoying your Flirc! -
Not as yet - I think he's working on getting the current Release candidates out - there was a rare bug that he couldn't replicate so it's taking a lot longer than anticipated. Don't worry though, i've added it to the bug tracker (not available to view publically at the moment unforunately)

Flir app doesn't works on Windows 8 or Mountain Lion(10.8.2)
Chris! replied to krnsripati's topic in Firmware Bugs
This isn't good is it - very sorry. Something seem to be wrong on the Flirc. On the windows computer that you're getting a connection to the Flirc with can you try re-uploading the stable firmware (version 1.0): http://blog.flirc.tv/library-version-history/ Then clear the configuration using the Flirc gui (file --> clear configuration) Does Flirc work after this? Jason deals with these. Don't worry, sometimes we're a little busy (as Flirc is not something we take a salary from) but we will make sure we get you set up with a happy working Flirc. Thanks Mr Fish (Awesome name!) -

Chris! replied to krnsripati's topic in Firmware Bugs
Weird. Those Vendor ID's don't match Flirc's one. Are you connecting through a hub? Is this with the flirc software running? After a while I get those symptoms a bit on my mac but from the flirc software - not the Flirc itself. -
I agree - really useful for kids, but i'm not sure of an easy way to have an obvious universal way of doing to please everyone. I like the look of your way for people who need it - if you felt like doing a guide it might help someone - no pressure though :). Glad you like it!

Thanks joek - awesome info, added info to the sticky -
That is nice. My XBMC box broke so i'll just oggle this set up then buy a cheap android box and regret it!

Chris! replied to joek's topic in Remote Controls
No. Should work on any platform Kind of why I referred you back to the post as it says you need to use Flirc's harmony profile. Did Flirc previously work? -

Gah! Just lost a massive response i'd just typed. Will get to this when I get back from work (~8 hours) -

Chris! replied to joek's topic in Remote Controls
I'm a bit puzzled. I've wrote the steps required to do this in the post you've linked to. Have I made a mistake? You've followed the steps?: -
That's why i'm around here still - love Jason's product and Flirc business!

Like XBMC there is no keymap there by default - if you want to change keyboard shortcuts then you can put a keyboard xml there. Problem is knowing what plex use. Really wouldn't mind finding a github of default xml for the keymap. I get confused when I look around Elan's github - found a kind of keyboard thing: https://github.com/elan/plex/blob/laika/keymapping.txt but I don't think that's what we're looking for
-
Agreed. They've not been particularly helpful in the posts i've seen - which is a shame: Random thread: http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/70860-plex-keyboard-shortcuts-on-osx/ Thread I made on the plex forums: http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/74334-default-keymaps-for-keyboard/ As plex shares stuff with XBMC I tried looking in the application support on mac where the keymaps for XBMC would be usually but there was nothing :( Not sure how to proceed.

It's pre-programmed. You don't have to assign the keys using the flirc gui - only upload the beta firmware. Is it not working? -
How to use EventGhost and Flirc for maximum XMBC awesomeness.
Chris! replied to evilestegg's topic in How To
Flirc is program once, use anywhere. Eventghost is windows only software - it doesn't install anything on Flirc. You'll need a windows computer to use it. For more info: http://www.eventghost.org/- 13 replies

If you use the new firmware but use the TV profile instead () that way you can assign a wake button and custom keys. But you lose the great response time of our specially tweaked profile. Unfortunately as both me and Jason have full time jobs development is slow (not that I do any development) - it will get sorted though :) Happy Flirc-ing
-
At the moment everything in the xbmc preset in the flirc GUI and some more (I counted 52 buttons in total). I gave the profile a try a long time ago and been using it without wake etc - though forum posts lead me to believe that buttons can't be remapped to wake. You could try this if you like. I was talking to Jason about getting custom buttons added which he approved of

Hi

No. It's already synced up. You just need the software to upgrade the firmware (which it should do automatically on first run) Not sure the Flirc harmony profile has custom keys in it yet... we're working on that - hence why it's still in beta.
