No seth, not in the device instance, in the device template itself. In the original device template, this is blank, in the new one, it's like Murdock's.

I did the same thing!

Go to: Advanced --> Configuration --> Device Templates

Pull down "Device Template" and start typing Go and you'll pull up the 'Go Cordless GC1005M' and click on "Pick device template"

Block Device (String) 158 is under the 'Device Data' heading and you're looking for the 'Default Value' column to the right of the 'comments' column. What do you have there?

Uplink just fixed the Gyration & Fiire remotes and we have released an update to Dianemo users this evening.

All the best

Just to let you know we have found a problem with the 'fast forward' button on the Fiire remote with this update. At the moment this is the only issue we are aware of. However there is no fix for this specific issue right now - and none on the horizon either I am afraid.

All the best

Hi all,

I have the following under
#152 Block Device(string)

Code: [Select]
/dev/input/by-id/usb-Gyration_Gyration_RF_Technology_Receiver-event-kbd|/dev/input/by-id/usb-Gyration_Gyration_RF_Technology_Receiver-event-mouse
So it is just like Murdock's. Yet mine still does not work.

Not sure what else to check. Please let me know.

Best Regards,

Seth

can you comment out (or add the LV_DEBUG log level to your pluto.conf), reload router, and tail -f | grep for GenericHIDInterface?

Ive managed to get most of my Gyration working by editing the #59 Configuration(string) data field with the following:

1,10,U,Y
2,11,U,Y
3,12,U,Y
4,13,U,Y
5,14,U,Y
6,15,U,Y
7,16,U,Y
8,17,U,Y
9,18,U,Y
0,19,U,Y
Down,104,R,Y
Up,98,R,Y
Left,100,R,Y
Right,102,R,Y
ok,36,D,Y
SkipNext,171,R
SkipPrior,173,R
chup,120402,R
chdown,120403,R
fastforward,216,D
Rewind,176,D
Pause,127,D
Play,215D
Mute,121,D
Stop,174,D
voldn,122,R
VolUp,123,R
Record,175,D
Guide,120362,U

help,134,H
Power,150,U
Halt,223,H
Music,120391,U

Pictures,187,U
Back,166,D
menu,120389,U
start,110,U
media,120366,U
lights,120273,H

I wouldnt be able to tell you which exact fields Ive changed, but comparing to what you have may be revealing.

Hi. Sorry, with the flooding and what not here in PA, I have not had a chance to check into this. I did though this morning get the opportunity.
Here below are my entries from #59 on the template. Most are identcal to yours, but there are some that are different. I have marked them in red:

1,10,U,Y
2,11,U,Y
3,12,U,Y
4,13,U,Y
5,14,U,Y
6,15,U,Y
7,16,U,Y
8,17,U,Y
9,18,U,Y
0,19,U,Y
Down,104,R,Y
Up,98,R,Y
Left,100,R,Y
Right,102,R,Y
ok,36,D,Y
SkipNext,120163,R
SkipPrior,120165,R
chup,120402,R
chdown,120403,R
fastforward,180,D
Rewind,152,D
Pause,110,D
Play,179,D
Mute,160,D
Stop,164,D
voldn,174,R
VolUp,176,R
Record,177,D
Guide,120362,U
info,134,U
help,134,H
Power,223,U
Halt,223,H
Music,120391,U
Videos,120393,U
tv,237,U
Pictures,187,U
Back,234,D
menu,120389,U
media,120366,U
lights,120273,H

Not sure if changing them is correct. Perhaps someone else can look at their #59 to get a third or even a fourth pair of eyes on the issue.

Best Regards,

Seth

I can confirm that the codes Dennis posted above, do in fact work. I replaced the ones in my #59 with the ones he has posted in this thread, and now it works without issue.

Perhaps we can have this newly modified template submitted that way the next person who installs RC1 will not have these issues.

Best Regards,

Seth

I'm not smart enough to figure out WHY the old codes stopped working... but using xev, i wrote down the codes generated for the buttons.. then tested them in the template..   

It was ROUGH without the remote working.
