Hi,

My Flirc has not ben working for several months. I gave it a new try and removed everything old and did a new install with version 1.3.0 and upgraded firmware to 3.3. Still no luck. Recording the keystrokes went fine except I have to press every key twice to get it recorded.

However, nothing happens at all when I press a key. What to do?

What remote control are you trying to use it with?

Harman Kardon AVR remote.

Bump.

Do you have another remote you can try it with to see if it is a remote specific issue?

I updated to 1.3.3 and firmware 3.4, cleared all settings and tried with another remote, a Samsung TV remote. It worked with the basic keys tested. Then I cleared everything again and tried with my main remote again. Still I have to press every key twice to get it recorded, but it doesn't work correct. I have to press every key twice just as during recording. Some GUI- and firmware versions back it worked with a HK AVR remote, but then I had problems with Flirc disconnecting all the time.

So, can the problems with a rather common HK AVR remote be solved?

It seems setting the Inter key delay to 6 made the trick. It's working for now.

Hmm, still really strange (at least to me). It didn't seem to follow the normal symptoms and strange inter key delay solved it.

 

Please keep us informed on the remote and i'll write a help document for it in our zendesk so others can benefit, more than anything I don't understand how changing inter key delay helps (but i'm glad it's working again)

The new version 1.3.4 together with firmware 3.5 is working like a charm. The default setting of inter key delay doesn't have to be changed.

Strange. Glad it's working now.
