In order to force the Chromebox to suspend, I originally tried to change the default behavior in the Keymap by creating my own /storage/.kody/userdata/keyampas/keymap. Once done, the Chromebox only wakes on that specific IR command, and nothing else. ![]() I then trained the Flirc by mapping that IR code to "Wake" in the Kodi controller. If you have a firmware between 4.4 and 4.9, try each and see which works. Load the matching configuration file into the Flirc. Check which firmware version the Flirc is running. I eventually solved this by taking an old IR remote I had from a device I no longer had installed, and creating a new Harmony button I named "Resume" and learning that old remote IR command, and set up the Harmony Flirc/Kodi device with that same code to Power On. Configuring Flirc Use the Flirc configuration software. So even though there's a Flirc "Wake" event (on the Kodi or Full keyboard controller profiles), I had no corresponding Harmony function/button to map to it. However, there are "Power On" or "Resume" events in the Harmony Flirc/Kodi profile (Just PowerOff). And interestingly the ability to toggle that in the Flirc Advanced menu remained grayed out (not sure why). When I installed the Flirc GUI on a Windows box to program it, it upgraded the firmware on my Flirc, after which it no longer responded to any generic IR event it saw to wake up the Chromebox. Interkey delay as referred to in the advanced section of the flirc GUI is an adjustable setting for the firmware for the spacing in between signals while holding down a button on your remote. so I'm posting here in hopes that it helps others (the other posts I could find on this are rather old), as well as to see if I just missed something obvious.įirstly, just plugging the Flirc in to my Chromebox running LibreElec, and setting it up as a Flirc/Kodi device in MyHarmony initially worked pretty seamlessly for control functions, however there were two issues: 1) Any IR command would resume the Chromebox if suspended, and 2) the PowerOff functionality brought up the Kodi power menu, wherein you had to navigate to a selection. ![]() So, I finally got all of this working, but seems like I had to jump through several hoops for what I assume would be somewhat default behavior everyone should want.
