![]() In normal operation Flirc should be able to see the remote's signals even without a direct line of sight (mine is behind a TV hanging on a wall). One of the best ways to properly record a button is to point the remote in a different direction (for example at the ceiling), so the Flirc receives a signal that bounced off something instead of a direct one. It has a very sensitive sensor and doing that you'll cause your recorded signal to be malformed and may not work reliably in normal operation (when connected to Fire TV). When you record your buttons in Flirc software, don't point your remote directly at Flirc from a short distance. Every button you record is saved in the Flirc's memory, so you don't need to save anything. ![]() So after recording all the buttons on Fire TV controller you can for example go to Full Keyboard or Multimedia and record more buttons if you want or need. You can also mix controllers in any way you want (the controller selection is not stored anywhere - it's just a view in the app). You go through all the functions and that's it. To program Flirc, you press a button representation in the app and the app will ask you to press a button on the remote you want to have assigned to the function you've selected. However, I see that Amazon now sells Fire TV remotes that have those buttons. The Fire TV came with a basic remote, without 'Netflix' or 'YouTube' buttons. In that submenu, you have multiple controllers available. I 'managed' to program the Flirc USB to operate Fire TV stick, using Roku commands programmed into my Universal Remote MX-780. In the Flirc app you have a main menu with Controllers position. If the remote allows you to set every detail like a protocol used etc (instead of selecting a concrete hardware) then use a NECx1 or NECx2 protocol with some random device id value and add as many buttons you need with different function codes (again sorry, I'm not familiar with URC software so I don't know the capabilities of the remote).Īfter you set up your remote, connect Flirc to your PC or Mac, install Flirc software if you didn't do this yet and open Flirc application. For example, if you don't have a Samung TV, then add a Samsung TV to your remote. As Flirc is a programmable device itself you don't need to program your remote in very specific way. I'm not familiar with URC remotes and their software, so I can't help you with details, but like I've mentioned in my previous reply, just program the remote to control any device you don't actually have.
