![]() ![]() Unfortunately the "Inter-key delay" option is no longer available. This is still the "official" fix for non-harmony remotes in the Flirc's help page. it sends two Ctrl-Down button presses (using keyboard's Ctrl-Down works fine so it is not my program, also, I have my other Flirc configured to use my LG UHD Bluray player's remote and it works fine, so the issue has to do with Flirc and the XBox 360 remote).Īnyway, I used to have this same double-press issue couple of years ago when I bought my first Flirc and back then I was able to fix the issue by setting the "Inter-key delay" to something longer than default value. For example when I have a menu up in my program and I press the down button on the remote, it moves the menu down twice, I.E. It just sends Ctrl-button presses to my program (Ctrl-Up, Ctrl-Down, Ctrl-A, etc.) to run the GUI. I am not using Harmony, but an old XBox 360 controller to control my own HTPC software. But that's for another forum.Įdit: OK, using the s key wasn't ideal since whenever I needed to enter text in Kodi (search function etc) if I hit s it would suspend.I am having the same double-press issue as a lot of other users as well. The quick resolution was to the change the line: XBMC.Suspend() īliss at last! Now if I could just figure out why my Harmony activity of turning on the TV, Amp and Kodi takes SO long before it exits and I can use the buttons. I finally validated this by watching the keyboard in the FLIRC software while I pressed the PowerOff button, yep, "s" lit up. I'll spare the reader the variety of things I tried and get to the punchline: MyHarmony put the keyboard "s" for the PowerOff command. I followed the directions to a T, but selecting PowerOff always resulted in the Kodi shutdown menu. and I have a few grayer hairs because I didn't validate this first. ![]() Several other threads which I read also indicated that this was now part of the MyHarmony profile for the device. This would all work very well if it didn't make the assumption that the MyHarmony default settings for the FLIRC/Kodi device included the keyboard "ctrl-F12" for the PowerOff command. This has been a very helpful thread - many thanks to CRUTONBN for taking the time to document this. If you go this path the system will always wake up when using any activity and not go into suspend, the stock power off command is bugged somehow like it's being sent multiple times. If you've been wondering why not just use the stock Flirc/Kodi power off command combined with the Kodi settings\power saving changing it from shutdown to suspend, this doesn't work. Now if all goes well when using Harmony activities the system should go into suspend. Reboot the system (required for new xml to take effect) Once logged in select options\preferences\panels and tick the box for “show hidden files”īrowse to /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps folderĬopy and paste in the text below, then save (old floppy disk icon) XBMC.Suspend() Go to devices on Harmony remote and select Flirc media player then hit the power off key to map it to Ctrl+F12 (requires harmony with display screen or map power off to physical button) Select Ctrl+F12 (as Kodi wont respond to this at least not yet) I want to turn this device off when not in useĪdd command and select PowerOff (if you have messed with poweroff before finding this guide choose the fix command and reset IR code for PowerOff) Go to system information and make a note of it's IP address Thx to GoodOmens for the tip though his info is a little out of date now so this is a guide on how to do it all. ![]() If you have been wondering on how to make Kodi work with Flirc and Harmony remotes to automatically suspend without you having to call up the shutdown menu or be stuck with the other methods that limit suspend commands to the home screen of Kodi this is how to do it with Kodi v15 at time of writing. ![]()
