“Really easy to set up (much more so than expected) - I wanted to use it to control a Shield TV Pro. I just opened the application on a Windows 10 machine, hit the Go button, programmed the 13 buttons and it worked first time. Great solution for IR control of the Shield TV.”
“A great way to create your own custom remote. Program the USB with your remote of choice on a PC with some software, then just plug the USB to your Raspberry Pi running Kodi or PiCorePlayer for example.
I would work on anything that takes a USB keyboard.
At £20, it is not a cheap option but it works well.”
“This item was purchased as I wanted the Pi4 to act as a media centre and as a replacement for our old WDTV media centre. Once the Flirc Configuration GUI was loaded onto my Windows Laptop the old WDTV remote controller was configured using the utility.
It works perfectly and exactly as advertised.”
“Not quite any remote. It doesn't work with 455khz remotes such as the bang and Olufsen beo4. I was hoping this would be the last thing needed to make streaming on my aging stereo completely seamless. That said it seems like a nice device and i will find another use for it.”
“Flirc worked well, once I had it set up—the online instructions (nothing at all in the box) were inconsistent. But pleased with the adaptor thingy itself and very pleased with PiHut's service.”
