Arnold Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) Hi Flirc, I did receive today the Flirc Skip and am excited to going to use it. The unpacking was great. The installation of the Mac driver simple. My setup looks like this: - TV: Samsung OLED 55S95B (2022 model) - Soundbar: Samsung Q-series Soundbar HW-Q990B (2022 model) - Settopbox: Arris 2952VIP. The TV and soundbar are not yet in the database. I don’t know which other models I could use. The settopbox seems to be working. I need the get the TV and Soundbar working to check if it all is working as required. Please assist. I can’t wait to able to use the Flirc Skip. Thx, Arnold Edited January 11, 2023 by Arnold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Posted January 11, 2023 Report Share Posted January 11, 2023 You can really just select any model. Pick whatever seems most likely. Samsung re-uses remote codes, so as long as you have Samsung as the brand, it will likely work. After you select one, you can hit the test button on that page in the app and if it turns your device on or off, you’ll know it’s working. see here for more info: https://skip-org.gitbook.io/skip-remote-guide/quick-start-guide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is really strange, samsung doesn't change codes. I pretty much exclusively use Samsung and all the models work with 'most codes'. I can't find the manual on the TV, but it looks like the remote is bluetooth/rf that comes with the TV. Are you able to confirm there is an IR receiver on the TV?

Arnold Posted January 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 Samsung TV E-manual Samsung Smart Remote manual Hopes this helps. I can't find the confirmation of a BT remote / IR receiver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't find the confirmation of a BT remote / IR receiver. I'm not finding anything. I couldn't imagine they made the tv without an IR receiver. Is it in a picture frame or anything that could be covering it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold Posted January 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) It seems like to only work on bluetooth... That's too bad. Now I have to look for an other solution. I ordered the Flirc before buying a new tv. Not realizing that it would only work with bluetooth Would the Flirc USB be an solution for this?

I was just going to suggest seeing if this was a possibility. Let’s see by trying a keyboard first. If the keyboard can control it, Flirc definitely can. If not, there is still a possibility, but it’s harder to test. Let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold Posted January 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) I succeeded in connecting a Apple wireless keyboard (Bluetooth) to the TV and that worked fine. So what’s next :-) Edited January 16, 2023 by Arnold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
