Hi Jason,

Has any way been figured out where we could long press the home button for Amazon FireTV and we will be able to pull up the shortcut menu?

Edited April 29, 20206 yr by jbn500

It should work, unless you are using a harmony. What remote are you using?

I am using a tsr-310 remote from crestron. I have an IR emitter attached from my crestron control system to the flirc and my crestron system sends the signals when the remote buttons are pressed. Currenly, all buttons on my remote have been mapped correctly and are working accordingly with fire tv. The only thing missing is the ability to long press the home button and have that pull up the shortcut screen. Thank you so much for your prompt reply. I hope you are doing well during these crazy times. 

Open up my app on your PC, go to File->Device Log.

Enable IR debugging. And press and hold the button in question. Post the log here.

Can you also post your config file? Can you do this again, don't hold your remote too close to flirc, in fact, point up towards the ceiling. Not seeing good results in the above.

Here it is again.

something is not right, it's sending inconsistent signals. Is it low on batteries? You have any remote handy that you can try to see if we can narrow this down?

Here are the results of a different remote:

looks awesome, pair that with the profile, and try it, let me know if that works. If it works, it's the remote

 

yes i tried that, but it still doesn't work. It just registers the key press as if pressing the home button on the actual firetv remote repeatedly a bunch of times. Holding it (long press) doesn't bring up the below screen:

A year later...

 

Was there ever a resolution to this? I use a URC-7935 universal remote which works fantastically with FLIRC and my fire stick and the long-press home menu is the one feature I could never get to work. I can program the remote with the IR protocol from just about any device in existence (It's a JP1 remote) so if there's one that will work, or another way to get this feature, please share!
