Flirc_util.exe script not running in w11

[GKL]

Situation: Fiirc USB v2 to control my KPN TV set-top box. (Sagemcom DIW7022 modified) wit Harmony Hub.

I have a working configuration downloaded from This Website. But some controls are missing. I can control those with a Logitech K400r keyboard plugged into the STB. so I want to add those functions via a record_api script in a .bat file. I found the HID codes after quite a lot of online research.

The script has randomly (?) worked 2 times, but 99% of the times it just hangs waiting for a IR input at the first button. This is on a w11 laptop and a w11 desktop PC. I tried compatibility modes XP, vista, 7 , 8. Different USB port etc.

try putting in a sleep 200 ms after each record. You probably have a race condition.

[jason]

wait, at the first record? That doesn't make sense. What if you do the command by itself without all the other stuff in front of it? 

Just do this on it's own: flirc_util.exe record_api 0x2 0xA6

If that works reliably, it's something else related to windows
