Hi, i just received my flirc usb adapter.

 

Can you help me how to manage my Apple Remote (Silver Edition) on my raspberry pi with xbmc (USING RASPBMC).

 

Kind Regards,

The Flirc saves its key bindings on its own hardware.  So, plug it into a PC, download the software and program your keys there. Then, remove the Flirc from your PC and plug it into your Raspberry pi.  Can't guarantee it will work as I don't have  pi board myself.

ah ok, i did not know this that it saves the bindings on its on hardware. so i have to try it from my pc - if anybody can support me in this case i would be happy . Kind regards

hey it works fine :) it was a hard work to get the flirc run with windows 8. i used this workaround: https://flirc.clarify-it.com/d/epnthl

 

-after this i configured the flirc in windows 8 

-dropped it off and put it in my raspberry pi

-restartet the raspberry pi after configuration an apple remote via lirc

 

and the apple remote silver now works with flirc via raspberry pi

 

great product.
