  • Out of Memory error after deleting and re-adding device 1 year ago

    It was working previously, but after V41 was installed I had one device appear blank and not function properly so I deleted it and set it up again, but this time it was out of memory, but it had worked before. I need a minimum of 9 devices in the list, preferably 10, however there are duplicates that can share data, for example I have 3 Nvidia Shields and 2 identical DVBT tuners. I think I found a way around this by setting up one device normally, then making a blank device and manually assigning the buttons on the new device from the other, instead of loading another entire device command list. Complete device list I want to implement is: Nvidia Shield (FLIRC IR) Nvidia Shield (FLIRC IR) Nvidia Shield (FLIRC IR) Teac HDB860 Teac HDB860 Foxtel IQ4 Foxtel IQ3 Hisense U9H (TV, only need power button, hidden from list) Anthem MRX720 (Receiver, only need volume, mute and source switching for macros, hidden from list) MhubS 8x8 Matrix (video Matrix, has 8 learned IR codes for switching source to send to the receiver for macros, Hidden from list) Each Shield, Tv Tuner and Satellite tuner have the same IR commands, but need a different input switching macro. So a total of 10 devices would be all I need for full control of the video distribution setup. This is all IR, no Bluetooth.

  • Power On/Off Nintendo Switch 1 year ago

    There is no way to turn the switch on if it is off other than the power button on the device itself. Also Bluetooth is unreliable on the switch for third party devices. If the switch is just asleep you could use a flirc to mimic a wired keyboard and sent keypresses that way.

  • Sofabaton U2 Losing Config 1 year ago

    This is a bug in the communication between remote and app, the data is stored on the remote itself and when the app connects it downloads the setup from the remote but it gets corrupted very easily. this should be an easy fix with some checksumming and local config backups, which I was told are currently being worked on.

  • Add PS Button 1 year ago

    A FLIRC can achieve this via IR, you can program any unused IR code from the remote to send a pause/break keypress and it will work, but it could be added as a Bluetooth keyboard code in the future to streamline things.

  • How to set the default remote? 1 year ago

    The u2 does not have the ability for macros to set the active device in the remote. The way I got around this personally which may not work for everyone but works for me is to have macros programmed to the Input select button on every device, I scroll to what I want, hit select source and my gear does its dance to change I puts and settings, leaving the remote on the device page needed.

  • u2 remote 1 year ago

    find the closest similar model, almost all of the Samsung TVs use the same commands and have the same functions. The IR works better than the Bluetooth in most cases keep that in mind.

  • 【Tutorial】Can't find the codebase? Submit to join 1 year ago

    With gear in the class of DCS and D'agostino you should consider getting an RTI tech to put in a proper system. Sofabaton is not going to be reliable enough. Nice gear though! I'm a fan of Dans gear and have one of his classic Krell FPB power amps.

  • Limitations preventing me from buying more U2s 1 year ago

    I also have an issue editing some entries via the App, some devices work and I can update the buttons or change a macro, but others come up blank and changes made don't apply. I delete and redo the device and again it comes up blank when I try to edit it. This seems to apply to where I have multiple versions of the same device (2x Teac HDB860 DVBT tuners for example) I need two entries for them with slightly different macros configured but the second one always comes up blank when editing? This software is appalling.

  • U2 scrollwheel getting progressivly worse 1 year ago

    You need to implement a way to save the configuration on a remote so that when configuring a new one people can load the backup and have their configuration restored. Imaging having 15 devices all manually learned button by button and having to re-do that because your scrollwheel was playing up ?

  • Still around? 1 year ago

    Yes they are, but I think they jsut have one person that watches this website and rarely comments anything particularly useful. The X1S is due for release early next year and a firmware update for the U2 was just released a short while ago. I think they are just a tiny branch of a still quite small company so nothing happens particularly quickly.
