Hi there,

My FLIRC USB repeats "Enter" without IR signal. Is this h/w trouble?

It would be work monitoring the device log with:

flirc_util device_log --ir -p

to see if events are being generated when not pressing any remote keys. If they are, gradually turn off all electrical devices in the room until you stop seeing events. Plasma TVs produce spurious IR and I have an LCD TV which does the same. The solution in my case was to put a piece of cardboard over the Flirc IR window. It could still see the remote IR, but blocked out the spurious IR.

That all said, this is an odd error which might suggest that the firmware needs reflashing:

B table CRC Mismatch: 0x32EF6B1C != 0xFFFFFFFF
