Cubytus Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 Hi there, I wanted to give another chance to the Flirc IR receiver and fired up Flirc's software. I was running 3.25.3 and received an alert for an update to 3.26.0, which I installed. For sure it immediately crashes on launch. Platform: Mac OS X 10.14.6 Why is the software acting up *again*?

jason Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 Can you try downloading directly from the website and let me know if that works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jason Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 Sorry, I was hoping to connect over a remote debugging session. Can you post the output of the following. Run this in a terminal, hopefully it gives me a clue as to what's going on: DEBUG=true /Applications/Flirc.app/Contents/MacOS/Flirc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jason Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 1 minute ago, Cubytus said: What timezone are you in? GMT-7? Yes It's gotta be related to the version of the OS. I'm not quite certain the cause yet, all I did was figure out how to sign the app. ** edit** I got an older mac I can't upgrade, I just reproduced it. Give me a day or two. I'll figure it out. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience. Here is the old one: https://flirc.tv/software/flirc-usb/GUI/release/mac/Flirc-3.25.3.dmg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubytus Posted April 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 OK I get it, the software can't be possibly tested on all OS versions. Why not offer older versions on the support page, in case something breaks, and give instructions to *ignore updates alerts*? Say, a list of legacy versions and matching maximum OS version? 3.25.3 appears to work on Mac OS X 10.13.6 and 10.14.6, but the "Advanced settings" is just a blank box when no receiver is connected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 I will add old versions to the website. There is a lot of crud in this. I haven’t put an ounce of effort into it over three years. I’ve been working on a universal remote. The software is no comparison. Once it launches, Flirc’s interface will be rewritten in this technology and built on the work I’ve done.

Cubytus Posted April 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 Sure I'll come back on the website from time to time to see when it appears, hoping Flirc software will finally be stable. There are still plenty MacBook Pro pre-Retina in service that can't upgrade past Catalina, and some may even stop at Mojave because of compatibility issues with still-32bit apps (my case). Plenty of competition, I currently use either a keyboard or the official software remote for Kodi, none of which are ideal. The first one because it's a bit large and fragile, the other because I have to look to know where I'm pressing. I hope yours will match your own Kodi-themed case and be sturdier than low quality plastic ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted April 9, 2022 Report Share Posted April 9, 2022 I think it should be fixed now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
