userdude Posted February 28, 2023 Report Share Posted February 28, 2023 I have a Bravia 4KUR2 and a STR-ZA2100ES receiver. Neither comes up in the device list. I tried setting up the remote with other sony products - but that did not solve the problem. Windows 11 FWIW. Please let me know if there are options to get it working until the codes are added.

userdude Posted March 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Hi, That is what it's currently set to. I tried the other available options as well and none worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerojidix Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Very intresting. On/Off button same? Not reagiert? 1. Reinstall App 0.96 Master and download the latest firmware. Maybe solved this problem. Reciver is the same? Not reagiert with Skip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
userdude Posted March 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 okay, factory reset the skip and that has helped a little. My activity has 3 devices: - sony tv - 4k UR2 - sony receiver - STR-ZA2100ES - Nvidia Shield The on/off on the tv works. However, that is the only thing that responds. I have my shield set to both handle navigation and the media/music controls, and my receiver set to control my audio. Any suggestions? I'm not totally surprised that the audio doesn't work (per the initial issue), but i am surprised my shield doesn't respond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Is this the Shield that can accept IR? If it's a more recent Shield, they don't have IR input and you need a Flirc USB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been using my logitech harmony remote with it using the harmony IR blasters. The device resides in my AV closet along with my receiver. I have plugged the usb into the back of the device. I feel like i will need to purchase something else but not sure what that else is at this tim. Edited March 14, 2023 by userdude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are IR repeaters out there that could help with this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then i'll want to get an IR Repeater that works with it (if you have a suggestion that would be great). For the shield, the USB port is back. I've tried pointing the skip at it from the back and the shield still does not respond. My receiver does not respond either. The tv is the only one that works. Cheers.

You've mentioned the USB port a few times. Is the Shield being controlled with a Flirc USB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I was just coming back to update you on what steps i've taken. So I pulled the Flirc dongle out and plugged it back into my computer and there were a few updates for it. I went to program it again using the updated shield config, but during the process, i'm running into problems with the mapping. When I walk through the configuration - it will ask for the directional pad and the select button, followed by the power button and menu button. However, when i select the power button on my Skip, the application seems to record multiple commands (or something like that) because it will accept that the power has been programmed, blink for the menu for a moment, and then ask for the home key. If i go back to the menu it says it's already been selected. So here's where we are at - The skip is turning my tv on and off. The skip is working with my shield - but the home and menu buttons keep getting recorded as the same The reciever is still not responding.

Nathan Posted March 21, 2023 Report Share Posted March 21, 2023 @userdude Ok. With regard to the Flirc USB, you should actually be able to File -> Clear Configuration, and that will solve a lot of problems. The Flirc is built already knowing some codes. If you clear the configuration on the Flirc, and then program the Skip 1s in the Skip App to work with Flirc - NVIDIA Shield, the Flirc USB should just work, no programming in the flirc app needed. Regarding the other two devices, if you have a Flirc USB and the original remotes, we can record those remotes and create profiles for them. To do so, open the Flirc app, then File - Device Log. Then enable IR Debugging. Then go through and record each button and save the output as a text file with each button press labeled. Each button press will look something like: +9051 -4416 +605 -511 +601 -1625 +606 -1626 +605 -1621 +605 -511 +605 -1625 +605 -1622 +609 -1621 +605 -1626 +605 -1626 +605 -1621 +606 -510 +605 -519 +597 -510 +606 -510 +605 -1622 +605 -511 +605 -1625 +605 -511 +605 -1622 +605 -510 +606 -510 +605 -513 +603 -510 +605 -507 +605 -511 +605 -1626 +606 -510 +601 -1626 +605 -511 +605 -1622 +605 -511 +554 -41 +9055 -2182 +554 We can turn that into pronto codes and get you a fully working remote. Eventually, this will all be automated and part of the Skip App, but we're not there yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a recommended IR blaster (or a way to repurpose the Harmony IR blaster), please do let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
