Snapstream Firefly Remote (RF, USB, full size)

Snapstreamfirefly.jpg

Vendors Support Website: http://www.snapstream.com/support/firefly/default.asp

Support Status: USB RF Receiver Supported

There are two version of this remote. The original full size rf firefly remote and the new Snapstream firefly mini remote that is IR based. This guide is for the rf version.

Description

USB Remote intended for Media Center PCs

On a personal note I was very impressed with this remote. Line of sight is a non-issue. I did some testing and the remote can control my frontend through 3 walls and a ceiling with no problem. Instant responsiveness without any missed button presses and the layout/feel of the remote is excellent. Plenty of extra buttons to go around is also a plus.

Issues and Problems

This works as of Lirc 8.0 using the lirc module: "lirc_atiusb" This guide works for fedora core 4 and before, but for fedora core 5 it is modified: http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?p=443661

Note: Effective Kernel 2.6.27 and higher - The module lirc_atiusb has been deprecated. You must use the userspace driver atilibusb instead.

Here are the directions for setting up the Snapstream Firefly Remote with lirc using Fedora Core 5

1. Plug in the USB reciever
2. Type in "lsmod"
3. You should see a module called "lirc_atiusb" this actually the module for the ATI USB Wonder remote, but we'll use it anyway
4. (fedora core 4). Add these lines to your /etc/modprobe.conf (for fedora core 4 and before only!)
alias char-major-61 lirc_atiusb
alias lirc_dev lirc_atiusb
5. (fedora core 5) Add this line to /etc/rc.local
/sbin/modprobe lirc_atiusb
6. Please look below and copy the contents of my lircd.conf config file to /etc/lircd.conf
7. You will notice that each button has two entries, this is because the firefly remote alternates between key codes everytime you press a button, so when I first used irrecord to record the buttons and had my lircd.conf file set up it would only work every other time I pushed a button. So I re-ran irrecord for my remote and made two entries for each button.
8. start the lircd daemon
9. Run "irw" and press buttons on your remote you should see output for each button.
10. For MythTV users Make your /home/username/.mythtv/lircrc file (listed below)
11. If this does not work for you I suggest using irrecord and create your own lircd.conf file. Remember to program each button twice to get the alternating key codes
