Windows 10 - Flirc Disconnected

Featured Replies

Hi all,

 

Trying to get this setup on a new MSI Cubi running Windows 10 Home 64-bit and the software (2.0.0) only says the Flirc is disconnected. I have reinstalled the software several times, rebooted, tried all of the other USB ports (all 3.0), uninstalled the device and drivers, updated the driver manually, updated the driver to 3.0.7.0 via ZADIG, but no luck with anything.

Under Device Manger, both the flirc and the HID Keyboard Device show up without any issues, but the software just insists that it is not connected.

I have another WIndows 10 laptop and the issue is exactly the same on that system as well. What can I do?

Let's set up a team viewer. It could be a mistake in the version 2.0.0 software that I'm unable to reproduce. But this was one of my biggest gripes with the original version. I'm a bit limited with the hardware, and the new version operates completely driverless. None of this bullshit. In fact, PM me. Help me try and uncover what's wrong with this so I can issue a software update, and I'll send you the new one on the house.

Having the same issue here on Windows 10 computer.  Let me know if you still need someone to be a guinea pig.

 

Thanks

2.0.1 fixed it, glad you could find what you were looking for. Thanks Jason!

I am still having issues.  With 2.0.1, I get an error message as soon as I run the program, says the program has stopped working.  Have tried fresh install, no change.

can we set up a team viewer session? If not, at your convenience;

There is a flirc.ini in the installation directory.

Can you change all the false to true, then set the loglevel = 0 ---> loglevel=5

Then can you post the log?
 

Im getting this too (i emailed your seperately but thought i should respond her in case to save time?).

I tried on win10 and win7 with the same results.

I believe you have the older one, correct? The issue reported above is definitely different. Long story short, I created another sku for a huge company who was looking to partner, and they ended up not moving forward. I repurposed that sku, but gave them a different USB Product ID in the process.

The new 2.0 software has a completely re-written driver model that handles all the device communication. I simply forgot to add the AZ product id when searching for the device. This is why some people have a 'disconnected' state when opening the GUI. There was a substantial amount out there. Completely forgot about it, was about a year and a half ago.

Ah, gotcha!

Yes this from a bit ago.  Is there an older version of the GUI i can use?  (right now it crashes it if it's plugged in)

this is an old post and there should have been an update posted. This might be different. What's going on with yours? Does it just say disconnected all the time? Does it show up in device manager?

Disconnected all the time.  I uninstalled driver and tried to reinstall.  Same issue.

Try right clicking the app and running as administrator. 

If that doesn't work, go to the Installation directory, drag flirc.exe to the desktop along with flirc.ini. Open up the flirc.ini and change the 0->5 and all the 'false' words to 'true'.

A log should be put on your desktop after running the application. Post that log and I'll take a look.

You need to remove the libusbk driver, it's only needed for the first generation. The second generation doesn't need any drivers.

Metal FLIRC USB Version purchased from Amazon.com.

Completely removed all drivers and software FLIRC related from Windows 10 Pro 64 bit.

Plugged FLIRC USB into multiple USB ports no drivers needed per post.

Results:  SAME AS PREVIOUS

Hey!

Was there a resolution to this thread? I am experiencing this issue. All steps above to troubleshoot have been taken.

GUI = v3.9.8

Flirc = v2 (metal)

This is happening after I recently moved. The Flirc device has worked on this box previously. This time, when I plugged in the device, I was prompted to do a firmware upgrade, which I did. Since then, the device has been "Disconnected" in the GUI. The GUI installed goes through installing drivers, and Windows appears to finish installing the device when I plug it in.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the device and the GUI. Rebooted, ran everything as administrator, etc. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,

D
