Review: Just what watching streaming content needs. - Works like a dream. Does what it claims. Nice pleasant charming product.
Review: Excellent Addition to my PI Media Centre - Won't bore you with a long review... Have a Pi Kodi / Media Centre setup and needed to add a remote to the situation so I bought this. Extremley easy to set up using any random remore control you have lying around the house in my case I used a old Android TV remote that is about ten years old because it had all the play, pause, rewind extra buttons on it. To set the FLIRC up you just plug it into your PC and it will ask you to program your remote by picking a on screen option and pressing the corresponding button on your remote control of choice... it genuinely could not be easier. Setup on PI was also very quick and straight forward and it just works perfectly. Really cannot fault this... fair price for a well made decent product that is easy to set up and use. 5 stars baby!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is line of site to the usb device itself required? or just to the front of the Fire TV**
A: The sensor is infrared and you must be in line of site with the USB for the remote to work.  I bought a USB extension cable and positioned it facing forward.

**Q: Can you send infrared signal via LIRC using a rasperry pi?**
A: No this emulates a keyboard.  If you want to use LIRC you need to connect an IR receiver diode to the GPIO pins.

**Q: Have Harmony 650 and I will buy the Fire TV. There will be no line of sight, reflected or otherwise to the rear of the Fire TV. Will this work?**
A: You need line of site.  I had my FireTv mounted behind the TV and it didn't work.  I got a USB extension cable and mounted that to the bottom of my TV and it works like a champ.

**Q: Infrared requiring line of sight?**
A: Yes, or some way for the light signal to get to the flirc, such as bouncing the signal off a wall. Best if there's a direct line of sight though.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works!
*by J***E on 10 September 2019*

I purchased Flirc as a way to remap NAD amplifier multimedia buttons to Tidal on my gaming rig. Works a treat and can map multiple remote/s buttons to a single command, now my partner can pause/play and next track with any multiple remotes. Software is very basic but simple to use and works.
