I then trained the Flirc by mapping that IR code to "Wake" in the Kodi controller. I eventually solved this by taking an old IR remote I had from a device I no longer had installed, and creating a new Harmony button I named "Resume" and learning that old remote IR command, and set up the Harmony Flirc/Kodi device with that same code to Power On.

#FLIRC HARMONY KODI FULL#

So even though there's a Flirc "Wake" event (on the Kodi or Full keyboard controller profiles), I had no corresponding Harmony function/button to map to it. However, there are "Power On" or "Resume" events in the Harmony Flirc/Kodi profile (Just PowerOff). And interestingly the ability to toggle that in the Flirc Advanced menu remained grayed out (not sure why). When I installed the Flirc GUI on a Windows box to program it, it upgraded the firmware on my Flirc, after which it no longer responded to any generic IR event it saw to wake up the Chromebox. so I'm posting here in hopes that it helps others (the other posts I could find on this are rather old), as well as to see if I just missed something obvious.įirstly, just plugging the Flirc in to my Chromebox running LibreElec, and setting it up as a Flirc/Kodi device in MyHarmony initially worked pretty seamlessly for control functions, however there were two issues: 1) Any IR command would resume the Chromebox if suspended, and 2) the PowerOff functionality brought up the Kodi power menu, wherein you had to navigate to a selection. And you can map the remote to keyboard keys any way you like.So, I finally got all of this working, but seems like I had to jump through several hoops for what I assume would be somewhat default behavior everyone should want.

You can use almost any device profile (for example for some TV almost because some IR protocols are not working that well with Flirc - I always recommend Samsung or LG TV as they often use NEC family protocols) and just use Flirc software to teach Flirc to use that profile. On the other hand, you are not required to use those profiles in Harmony. These profiles provide basic functionality for people that don't want to set up everything themselves and just control their player right away. Their support in Flirc is built into the Flirc's firmware and doesn't even require installing Flirc software for them to work out of the box (at least on a standard QWERTY keyboard layout). All the Flirc profiles (Flirc Kodi one included) are provided for a quick start with Flirc. Regarding the Harmony profiles, the Microsoft Kodi one has nothing to do with Flirc. You can think about it in terms of a virtual keyboard where you map your remote controller's buttons to specific keyboard keys and key combinations (with modifiers like shift, alt etc). Thanks for any help! Edited Apby ashbinderįlirc acts as an USB keyboard. Thoughts from those with more experience than I? Should I just be trying to find an RC6 receiver.did I misunderstand the features of the Flirc or how it interfaces with the computer?

The Flirc itself installed just fine, no driver issues, and the firmware even updated at first boot of the software. My other issue is that although the Flirc has perfect line of sight to the remote, yet it is either laggy or won't register a remote press at times.Cannot sleep or wake the computer either.

Flirc Kodi: cannot navigate start menu, but all buttons mapped properly for Kodi and work once Kodi is launched.Will not put the computer to sleep or wake it. Microsoft Kodi: can navigate start menu, but missing play, pause, stop, etc.

However, I run into the following issues with various Harmony profiles: My hope was that I could replicate the same functions with the Flirc and my new HTPC.

I recently purchased a Flirc Gen 2 and have been trying to set it up on a new Windows 10 HTPC with Kodi.
