How to update firmware

[jrbilodeau@gmail.com]

Hi,

 

I was wondering if someone can tell me how to update the firmware on my flirc. I've read that all you have to do is download the flirc app from https://flirc.tv/downloads/and then click on update, but it asks me for a bin file.

 

I've installed the app and it says i'm at version 1.0 for the firmware, but i have no idea where to find the firmware file.

 

I'm running the windows version.

 

Thanks

that doesn't really work anymore, I'll disable that and it's only there as a backup.

 

Go to file->advanced, and do a force firmware upgrade.

How do I install v3.5 or higher? I'm running v2.6 and don't see the FireTV option. I feel like an idiot, but I can't seem to find the higher releases anywhere. When I go file->advanced and force firmware upgrade it says v2.6 is the latest.

 

Thanks!

Hi,

 

The firmware is embedded in the Flirc software. To upgrade the firmware you need to first upgrade the software on the PC/Mac. It should then automatically detect you are on outdated firmware and offer an upgrade. If not the you can always go to advanced and force the firmware upgrade.
