The new firmware seems to have triggered it. Thanks so much for sharing and helping others. Even with the thick black piece of plastic, the flirc functions perfectly from across the room. It works perfectly and the wife is happy. I expect it has special properties to block many wavelengths expect for the one used by the IR receiver.Ģ) I then took black electrical tape and completely taped up the entire flirc and even left about 1/4 inch of tape over hang the front of the plastic piece I put on the front.įinally I positioned the modified flirc in a recessed place a couple of inches behind the TV stand. The plastic is opaque but also has a coating on one side. If you look through this piece at a lamp you will see it blocks much of the light. I used a fine hack saw to cut a tiny piece that fit nicely over the front of the flirc. It is a coated piece of opaque plastic about 1/8 of an inch thick. I did this two ways.ġ) I took an old DVD player and removed the plastic piece on the front where the display and IR receiver are. It is far too sensitive to stray light and reflections. I see many people here complain about very similar issues so I'll share my fix and maybe it will help others.īasically. It now works perfectly and has been for a month. Finally about a month ago I tried one more time to figure out the issue and this time I did. Eventually I came to the conclusion that it was somehow environmental and that stay light, sun light and/or reflections were the cause. I tried everything to fix the problem including swapping the two flircs with no luck. The one in the bedroom until just recently never worked right due to phantom and run away key presses. The second is in the 2nd floor bedroom which my wife uses for her htpc. My first is for my htpc in basement which I have had for about 2 years with no issues. I have 3 flircs two in use and the third I am just setting up. I'm not going to leave anyone hanging, just bear in mind I'm still the only one doing this.

The massive code overhaul has caused me to fall far behind, and I'm burning the midnight oil to catch up. I've noticed that the majority of failures I've been able to reproduce is when there was a hub in-between the device and computer.Īny devices that gets bricked due to these upgrades will be replaced, just email me and wait patiently.
WAKE FLIRC HARMONY OPENELEC PANASONIC UPGRADE
Updates will probably end for devices out there unless I can come up with a clever way of detecting if the firmware upgrade is not going well and stop the upgrade.
WAKE FLIRC HARMONY OPENELEC PANASONIC HOW TO
I need to do a lot more testing, however, how to move forward I don't know. Too many limitations, every line is critical in code to timing, and it's becoming a dumb waist of my time. The majority being this microprocessor is old. My blog post will be extensive on the measures I've taken, and what problems arose. (it's already started, and I'm holding it up, and am now nearly out of stock). I'm absolutely exhausted, and this had to be done correctly before the next build starts. It was a massive re-write of all my code, my bootloader, pretty much everything.
WAKE FLIRC HARMONY OPENELEC PANASONIC UPDATE
There are enough devices out there where this is now a serious risk to the company should an update ruin the majority of devices.Īmong a number of things I'm working on, I'm trying to fix this, and I'm nearly certain I've got it. As you can imagine, it's not a good problem, and is the reason I've slowed down my updates.
I have a bug in my bootloader, and sometimes the device gets bricked. I'm going to write a blog post soon, Chris is staying on top of me to make sure this gets done.
