USB Infrared Toy / Let's talk C#
Hello,

does anyone have some experience with the IR-Toy using C#/.NET?

My intension is a piece of software on my media PC, that uses the IR-Toy as a univeral remote control, that I control with the keyboard.
The current state of the project is, that I send the coammnds via commandline to the irtoy.exe (from the irtoy package).
But it allways take some seconds to finish the process. So i want to send the commands directly via serial.

Greetings

USB Infrared Toy / fw_update doesn't find IR Toy
Hello,

I want to update the ir toy, but the fw_update doesn't find the device. The pins are bridged and I see the device as a HID. The PID and VID are correct. (USBVID_04D8&PID_FD0B)

But when I want to read the firmware I allways get:
Code: [Select]
C:lircdriverfirmware>fw_update.exe -r -vid 0x04D8 -pid 0xFD0B
U2IO flash reading: FAILED.
RESET Device
Device is not found.
Operation aborted.
The update line from the .bat doesn't work either.

What could be the problem?
I am using win8.1 <-- if this is the problem, is there a wordaround? xD

USB Infrared Toy / fw_update failed.
Hiho,

I just connected my fresh IR Toy v2 and tried to Update the firmware with Windows 8.
At first I tried the Firmware kit with the Firmwarekit: 
USBIRToy.package.v22.zip --> update-USBIRToy.v22.bat
But after reconnecting, the Ir Toy is still listed as an USB PID. I checked the USB-ID and its the the right one (0x04D8&0xFD0B)

So I tried the other way and shorted PGC and PGD and connected it again to USB (still listed as PID in the hardware list with the right ID).
Now I ran the cmd and the firmwareupdater with:
fw_update -e -w -v -m flash -vid 0x04D8 -pid 0xFD0B -ix USBIRToy.v22.hex
The Output is:
U2IO flash erasing: FAILED.
Device is not found.
Operation aborted.

What can I do now?

Greetings,
Smuddy
