matt.jacobsen@gmail.com Posted December 25, 2014 Report Share Posted December 25, 2014 I'm using one remote, in part because Flirc allows me to map the keys on my one remote to keyboard values. It's a manufacturer's TV remote. I've mapped the up/down/left/right/enter/back buttons on this remote to the appropriate keyboard keys using Flirc. That works well. The problem is that I will use these remote buttons for the TV from time to time. The buttons are not exclusive to my use on the computer. I suspect I'm not the only person with this situation. What I don't want is be pressing keys on the computer when I'm using the TV remote for other purposes. Is there a way to temporarily disable Flirc from translating IR signals into key presses? Perhaps by reserving one of the buttons as the toggle. Or maybe a sequence of buttons. Basically, a lock/unlock button or code.

matt.jacobsen@gmail.com Posted January 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Thanks for the reply. I have upgraded my firmware so that I now can map a remote button to wake the computer. That's half of the solution. The other half is getting the computer to sleep. I'll play around with some settings to see if I can map a single key to the computer's sleep function.
