“Bought to ebable use of an AVR multi-remote with Kodi running on a NUC. The Flirc uses one of the NUC's front USB ports, and it works perfectly with minimal setup. Top class produce, and a great price from Pi Hut too!”
“I picked this up as I wanted to use a remote for Plex on my PC. This does it perfectly, just had to map the remote to the shortcut keys and it worked perfectly.
I'm rather impressed by the angle of range as well, my computer is in a different corner of my room to my TV and I expected to need to use a usb extenstion to move it closer but it picked up perfectly.
Only potential gripe? The UI looks / feels a bit dated for the software, but you use it once and it then remembers it on the dongle. Handily this then means it's even possible to wake the computer from sleep with the remote too.”
“Only made a small purchase from Pi-Hut but i found the communication from them perfect. They updated me on all key events. I was a little concerned about the shipping times but after consulting the FAQs, all was fine. Product was much better value that "other" websites. I will buy from them again for sure.”
“Most of the systems I have at home are Ubuntu Desktop and I had lots of problems setting the Flirc USB up, until I used Windows Pro 11 - I have a VM I keep handy. The set up was easy then and I got little thing to do exactly what I was after which was allow me to remote control a smallNUC box running an IPTV app. Smooth as butter - I plan to get another 2 or 3 when I can for a few other projects.”
“Using this with a Chromecast and a One For All remote that's been configured as a remote for the Nvidia shield. Work's absolutely perfectly and the remote allows me to control my Chromecast, TV and AV Receiver all on the one device.
I didn't realise that the FLIRC had to be plugged into a PC/Mac and needed to be configured first, but once I'd worked past my own mistakes then this was really easy to get up and running.”
