I know we have a very vocal customer who has one of these running so I think I would have heard by now and a 'true blue' friend of mine says he always uses the flirc method for Fire TVs. I hope they haven't cut off this control method too, I haven't seen any reports to suggest so. Not the second time, anywayĪpparently you also need to turn OFF adb debugging in the Fire TV settings. OH and you'll need to stick an IR bud onto the flirc of course!
#FLIRC ROKU DRIVER#
If you used a remote that already has a C4 driver you could probably skip that, but I prefer to be absolutely sure I'm mapping the right controls to the right places. Good idea to test that.Īfter that is the C4 part, you would create a driver and learn from that same remote. When it's done, stick the flirc in the back of the Fire TV and whichever remote you used to program will operate it via IR. An old Apple TV remote at first seems ideal (because then you could use the C4 ATV IR driver) but it isn't quite right because there's no hamburger button or separate back/home. You need any device that has all the same commands.

So you could use a TV remote or whatever. You then map some IR commands to each function. You are basically assigning IR codes to operate the Fire TV, since it doesn't have its own.įirst you plug the flirc into your computer use their software to choose what device you want to use it with (Fire TV) It seems a bit odd at first but once you get your head around it its very simple. We have two 1 Gen 4K Boxes how dose the flirc Work ?
