Jason has always been an avid user of Linux and when he realized his Panasonic TV remote would not work on his Linux based media center he decided to fix the issue himself. Out of his frustration, F(LIRC) was born.
FLIRC - your media center companion.
Universal IR remote receivers and the most beautifully crafted Raspberry Pi Cases.
What inspired you to make this project?:
I am an avid user of linux, but my biggest gripe was trying to use my Panasonic TV remote control with my ubuntu media center. There is a project called LIRC which converts your IR signal to electrical and has some decent support and a big following. However, my remote wasn't on the supported remote control list, I reluctantly gave up unwilling to make the effort to add my remote. Out of my frustration, F(LIRC) was born.
