You can find all the details about that here. FLIRC and OpenELEC are running a promotion. There’s currently a chance to win a FLIRC over on the OpenELEC web site. A lot of work and thought has gone into making it such a simple user experience. I won’t have to use a mouse or keyboard, but just FLIRC and a remote – awesome! How much does it cost? This will be excellent for me to use in school when I want to show a video using the Pi. You can use the XBMC app on your smartphone, provided your media centre and smartphone are networked.īut, if you don’t have your media centre or phone on a suitable network, or you don’t want to use your smartphone, FLIRC enables you to use any infra-red household remote to control your media centre. Not massively important, but quite useful. This one doesn’t, which means you can plug it in after the Pi is booted if you forgot to do it before. Some USB devices draw enough current to reboot the Pi when they are plugged in. There may be a tweakable setting somewhere, but I didn’t see it. For example, for volume, you have to press once for each increment, whereas normally you’d hold the button down. The only thing that’s a bit different is that the buttons don’t seem to ‘auto repeat’ if you hold them down. “Oh no, what if it doesn’t work? I won’t be able to shut down the Pi?” But it did work – perfectly – the first time. Navigation was flawless.įirst time I did the setup, I was concerned because I’d forgotten to plug in a wifi dongle to the Pi.

Do that for each of the buttons you want to be able to program, and you’re done. The memory card for the Pi4 must be loaded with the latest NOOBS operating system.This process may sound a bit scary, but the whole installation took less than ten minutes and worked perfectly.įor the XBMC setup, all you do is click on the on-screen “button” you want to “record” and then press the button you want to use for that function on your controller.Old HATs and displays as well as all Raspberry Pi cameras are fully compatible with the Pi4.Please note that this case currently has several days delivery time. Old cases are not compatible with the new Pi4.To connect HDMI monitors, you need one or two micro-HDMI to standard HDMI cables.You can use the new official Raspberry Pi USB-C power supply, or continue using your existing Raspberry Pi 5.1V/2.5A micro-USB power supply with the new official USB-C plug adapter.
