[concordance-devel] Firmware Upgrade 555
Hi guys, sorry for the long absence... kinda lost interest in my logitech harmony, since it seemed as if it didn't want to work for me with a few devices. I'm trying to pick it back up, but now I encounter another firmware upgrade for my Logitech 555. I noticed that in the 0.20 version of concordance firmware support for my model was disabled. How can I help to get this re-enabled? :) greetings, Marcel de Jong -- ___ concordance-devel mailing list concordance-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/concordance-devel

When I tried to set up my 555, I needed to have the remote learn some new trick via IR (basically because it refused to turn on or off me TV and all other devices I have), but when I ran the command it gave me this error message: It got broken sometime recently - when the file_read() stuff was done. I fixed it in CVS, thanks for pointing that out. I grabbed the CVS version yesterday, and had it run, but it only took one command in the file. I had to download the learnIr file for each and every command separately. I kinda expected it to read through all the key commands selected in the screen, and which are available in the file. Bad assumption on my part? It does learn it, sadly the remote still does not turn my TV on or off, not sure why though (not a big problem, since I turn the TV off completely anyway), and the distance between tv IR-eye and remote IR transmitter needs to be pretty close. This latter issue kinda renders the remote rather useless for me. :( It has nothing to do with the work you guys perform, concordance works for me, it's just that the remote itself seems a paperweight to me. :) I'll try again this weekend when I have more time to work with the remote. Perhaps the batteries are running flat. greetings, Marcel - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event. There's still time to save $100.

Either the 5 series us significantly less powered than the 8 series, or your batteries are very weak. I think it's the battery as well. As for the one-file-per-key, does the official software allow you to learn more than one at a time? Sadly I don't have access to a Windows machine nor a Mac, so I can't tell, really. But the webinterface, and the XML file leads me to believe that it does support it. But I do believe that it involves quite a bit of communicating to the server to tell it that you've moved on to the next key. (it keeps track of that) And for some keys, such as the Teletext key and the red key make the connection bad, at least after setting those, I had to reboot the remote in order to get it identified again. I'll try it again this weekend, and make a list of the keys that break the identification until reboot. greetings, Marcel de Jong - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

I would expect that only on a arch 3 (748 and 768), and arch 7 (6xx). Did you do your CVS update after my last email (since I did a checkin just before it at 11:27am today)? The first time I tried it was just before your email about the second 2000. And that one failed (don't have the logs of that sorry). Then I saw your email appear, so I updated via CVS, and recompiled and then it worked. I've just now updated it again, recompiled both libconcord and concordance, it upgraded the firmware once more. And still it reboots itself into safe mode. The firmware however is upgraded greetings, Marcel de Jong - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Register now and save $200.

Yes it does, after that the site also doesn't complain about needing a firmware update. It seems to function like it should. The only hurdle I'm now facing is not being able to learn the remote any new codes.

Re: [concordance-devel] Problem upgrading firmware Harmony 555
I have had some bad experiences with compiling a new kernel, so I'm hesitant to do help out in that respect. But it might be easy to do in Ubuntu, not sure, will check that out. Phil Dibowitz wrote: Marcel de Jong wrote: Hi Phil I just tested it, with a version of concordance I downloaded last night. Recompiled both libconcord and concordance, and upon execution I got this: Yeah, that's the same result another user is getting as well. I seem to be missing some magic piece for the 5xx series remotes. I know what I need to figure it out, but I haven't emailed it out because I haven't had time to write it up yet. For the adventurous, I need someone to turn on usbmon in their kernel and send me the usb logs for what concordance is sending so I can compare it side-by-side with the Windows logs I have. According to the code, it all appears the same, but clearly SOMETHING is different. For those who haven't used usbmon and would rather not spend the time to figure it out, I'll try and whip up some instructions soon. - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Re: [concordance-devel] Some firmware update code updates
Good day, I have recently received a Harmony 555, and also got the request from Logitech to install a new firmware. And found that your program does not yet support my model yet. Is support for the 555 in the planning? Do you need testers for that as well? Thanks for building this 'bridge', it's too bad that Logitech doesn't help out in this regard. kind regards, Marcel de Jong The Netherlands On Sun, Mar 9, 2008 at 3:15 AM, Phil Dibowitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey folks, So as of my last checkin, we have (theoretically) support for live FW updates on arch's 3, 7, and 8 (we already had 8 before). 3 is the 748 and 768. 7 is the 600 series, and 8 is the 880. I've confirmed the updates still work on the 880, but I *need* testers for the other ones. So if you have a 748, 768, or 6xx, please test firmware updates. Note that on anything other than the 800, a live firmware update will erase your config, and you'll need to re-update from the site or from a backup. Concordance will inform you of this if you are affected.
