Can't find anything, but does the nplayer have an IR reception? I want to be able to use my harmony remote.
Can you use 2 controllers and is there any 2 player games my kids can play together?
I doubt it has IR.
The controllers used have 4 LEDs on them, to identify the controller # _ _ _ _. So I'd assume you can have at least 4 paired.
Get a flirc and you should br able to use your harmony.

i have a flirc on my HTPC now
not sure if it will work on the nplayer though.
It works on firetv which is also android. I don't have a flirc but my understanding is that it emulates an HID input device and I believe those are natively supported in android.
Sent from my Nexus 5
It emulates keystrokes, but there are drivers and software goes along with it. I'll have to check out the flirc forums, haven't looked into flirc functions since I programmed mine 2 years ago.
Yes keystrokes from a keyboard which is an HID device. The software is used to program it on your PC. All that programming is written to the flirc and from that point on its completely standalone from the software and will use those ir to keystroke mappings on any device you plug it into.
" FLIRC is*fundamentally*different than other products on the market, as the mapping of IR input to keypresses is not static, but user*programmable. While it is possible to get this type of*functionality*with standard USB IR receivers, it requires intermediary software to be constantly running: adding another layer of complication and potential failure. By saving configuration on the FLIRC device itself, the user no longer has to constantly keep software running to interpret remote commands into their desired keypresses. What’s more, since FLIRC stores its configuration internally rather than on the computer, you can move FLIRC between computers and devices without having to reconfigure it.
The key is that FLIRC reports itself to the operating system as a standard USB Human Interface Device (HID), so any modern OS will be able to read it as if it was a keyboard. Even if the device or OS you want to use FLIRC on has no included support for remote controls, you can program FLIRC to “press” keys that the system will understand. For example, I was able to program FLIRC to interpret the directional pad on my remote to standard keyboard arrow keys; I then plugged FLIRC into my Android device and was able to navigate through the applications with my remote."

Awesome, thanks
Nope. It's not in the specs sheet....
Here is some useful information about setting up Flirc to work with the Android TV interface on the ADT-1 and Nexus Player. Don't have my NP yet, but will be using the Flirc with it when it arrives.
http://forum.flirc.tv/index.php?/top...roid-tv-adt-1/
You'd want to add lots more mappings for XBMC if you run that as well, etc. The forum there has lots of good info.
I've also seen posts saying it works with HDMI-CEC, so if your TV or receiver supports that you could probably run commands that way.

So I was running through the source code for the Behold 2 Kernel.
I found: kernel\drivers\ps3
with files inside to control/manage the PS3 system. (Turn on, off, etc)
Is there a way to activate those drivers and actually connect your phone through bluetooth to the PS3 and control it? On, Off and move around in the menu?
That would be pretty interesting... specially if you can get Remote Play to work on an android device!
Wow, if this is true then i'll definitely get an android phone to play with!
I guess not many people with ps3's around here. I'd love to have some sort of interaction with my ps3.
I'd really like this functionality too.

I think that the catch with android and bluetooth keyboard/mouse support was the lack of the HID profile. If the behold actually has that built in custom it would unlock a lot more than just ps3 support, but I'd love that too.
They have managed to port the Remote Play features to MS Windows so it must be possible to port it to a Linux based OS (i.e.. Android)

There has to be a way. The Kernel source codes come with PS3 Modules built by sony. The PS3 itself runs on linux (original ps3s even support installing linux operating systems)
I believe someone would need to activate those modules and rebuild a kernel, then someone needs to build an APP to take advantage of those features.
For sure we can connect through bluetooth and turn on/off the system and navigate the menu... That much the modules tell you. But again we need an APP for it too.
Thats cool if you can controller the ps3 i would buy an app for that
me too!
mistake. please delete
I'm eagerly waiting for this functionality to reach the Android platform too. Perhaps, now when SonyEricsson is focusing on the Android platform we'll see this kind of functionality implemented into a Android based device soon, and perhaps then ported to other devices.
Best case scenario would in my eyes of course be that the Android platform itself would support necessary HID profiles. I know that Android 2.X supports more Bluetooth stacks than previous versions, but that doesn't help I suppose..?
This company is making an app to use external bluetooth keyboards as an input device for Android. Maybe we can see if they could also make one for Android to control other devices such as the PS3. I just posted on their forum to ask if they could do this (if even possible):
http://www.teksoftco.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=5247#5247
I for one can't wait for the day that I can use my Android phone to input text on my PS3.
EDIT: they already replied. that was fast! ...so it's do-able but need "community interest" before investing. [hint, hint]

Turn your android mobile device into a bluetooth keyboard huh... *shows money*
maybe we should start a poll and link them to it... id pay to use my G1 as a bluetooth keyboard & touchpad on my ps3
Is there a way to do the contrary? I mean, control your phone with a PS3 controller, for games?

I do/did some research and worked on a Linux OS based on some code from the PS3-Linux project, a collaboration between Sony and the open-source community to help port Linux to the Cell Broadband Engine architecture and the Playstation 3. If you look, on the XrossMediaBar of old "fat" PS3's, under Settings > System Settings, there's an option for "Install Other OS" and "Select Default System". It was dropped/suspended indefinitely on development of the slim PS3's, to save time and money (since the slim PS3 re-does some central things in the I/O architecture, requiring a new hypervisor to be programmed.)
I'm actually considering porting the Android OS to the Playstation 3 sometime in the future, as a media-center, games and apps environment alternative to the PS3's OS. It will likely be based on my experience with the Electricsheep android firmware, another one of my projects.
Android, though built with touch in mind, works fine with a directional control and menu keys, not unlike the PS3 controller. A virtual mouse built on the right analog stick won't hurt either. Sixaxis provides the accelerometer, too. Not sure how it'll fare at 1080p resolution, but I'll wait 'till I get it ported to test that.
What I'm guessing, is that either someone else was considering the same thing, and pushed the drivers for the PS3's hypervisor and I/O from the mainline kernel into Android, or just left that in there and forgot to remove it.
But no, I don't believe said drivers are actually for remote-controlling the PS3 either by Bluetooth or Remote Play. They're likely not even compiled on builds for mobile phones (unless someone makes a Cell-phone.. hehe... eh.. *ahem*)
Anyway, if someone else already said this, I'm sorry, but I didn't read the entire thread. It's kinda long.

Maemo could and probably would run on the G1: the basis for my Utopia Pocket Linux project.
Hi, I'm a student of IT. My final project is on remote monitoring of patients. One of the features is the detection of falls and I have to use two types of accelerometers (Witilt and WiiMote).
Market applications that use the Wiimote does not work in our i9000.
And my question is: Is it possible with the standard ROM to perform a program that connects to the Wiimote?
If so could someone guide me a little about how to start, or put some link where I can see the starting point for this part of my project?
If it is not possible, would appreciate an explanation of why this happens.
Thanks in advance
Nobody can help me? =)
Can't you just use the accelerometer and orientation sensors built into the phone? If you have to use the external hardware in conjunction with the phone I would say use an Arduino, which has a lot of Wiimote and Wiichuck interface code available, with a Bluetooth module to talk to the phone; look at the Amarino project for interface code.
Alternatively the wiimote IME developer had the problem with the SGS and HTC because they were using a native library as most phones didn't have Bluetooth HID support, and the Bluetooth native library didn't behave the same way on all phones. Because the SGS with Froyo has Bluetooth HID support you may be able to interface with the Wiimote at a higher level and avoid the native libraries, if you take care of its quirky pairing behavior, but you will have to do more work with the Wiimote low-level protocol, which is quite well documented.
Hey everyone,
it took me some time to get this to work but if you happen to own an Ouya and a FLIRC Dongle you are now finally able to use any remote compatible with FLIRC (which is almost every infrared-remote including Apple Remotes) in order to control the console and especially control XBMC on it.
I created a tutorial explaining how here:
peterfranssen.de/2013/08/04/getting-flirc-to-work-with-ouya-and-xbmc/
Just some more input for the eager
Cheers for the help from the Android section on rooting! :good:
hmmpf- I'm not allowed to post links, yet. Sorry for the fuss. Maybe a Mod can change this post into a real link...
Thanks for the tutorial, i just bought a flirc and i will use this.
Cool, will try it out

Hi , I followed your instructions and have tried to program the Apple remote . I have the up , down , left , right working , but the middle , menu and play/pause buttons do not work for me even though the programming went fine. any ideas as to why or what I might try to fix this ? Thanks by the way this will be a great help when I get it all working. Cheers !!!!

Did you map the keys with:
- SELECT on the remote = 1 on the keyboard in FLIRC software
- BACK on the remote = 2 on the keyboard in FLIRC software
- PLAY/PAUSE on the remote = F3 on the keyboard in FLIRC software
?
If yes:
Could it be you misspelled the filename in the cat-command while copying it into your system/usr/keylayout folder? Look into that folder on your ouya (use a file-explorer) and check if it exists correctly: name should be Vendor_20a0_Product_0001.kl
If both doesn't work we should check whether there is a new vendor number with flirc...

Double Keypresses
Anyone here having an issue with the AppleTV 2 remote and FLIRC/Ouya/XBMC?
I am having double key presses a lot of the time. I have re-programmed this thing quite a few times trying to eliminate it.
Any suggestions?
Hey guys,
I thought I'd chime in on using the OUYA controller under Windows as I finally have it working 100%.
I recommend using vJoy in conjunction with Universal Joystick Remapper. vJoy installs a virtual controller driver whereas Universal Joystick Remapper lets you forward (and tweak) the input from the OUYA controller to the virtual one. By doing this, you can have a fully working D-pad, both thumb sticks working and you can get rid of the annoying z-axis value being created by the left trigger.
1. Download and install vJoy. As I'm a new user, I'm not allowed to post external links, so I'm afraid you'll have to use Google.
2. Open 'Configure vJoy' from the start menu and copy the settings found in the first picture attached to this post: 1.png.
3. Download and install Universal Joystick Remapper. Again, sorry but you'll have to use Google.
4. Download the attached zip file ujr.zip, which contains the configuration file (ini) for Universal Joystick Remapper and unzip it in the correct folder.
5. Open Universal Joystick Remapper and keep it running while playing your games.
At this point you're done! But in case you'd like to use your OUYA controller as a 360 controller, you can also run this configuration in conjunction with the Xbox 360 Controller Emulator x360ce.
1. Download and install as you would usually do. There's plenty of information out there if you're not familiar with it.
2. Open up x360ce.exe and configure it as in the 2nd picture I attached: 2.png.
3. Make sure to apply the settings from the picture to the vJoy device and not your actual OUYA controller. Also, as the OUYA controller shows up as controller 2 in x360ce, I loaded up the 'clear' preset for controller 2. This way we're only using the vJoy virtual controller in x360ce and not the actual OUYA one.
Hope this helps! This is my first guide, so forgive me if it's not completely clear and not according to the xda standards. :angel:

I know everyone on the internet says that the OUYA controller is the worst among the rest, but I just don't see it. I like it, it's sturdy enough. I never missed a button and the long handles make a better grip for me. A lot better than the old PS3, the new Amazon Fire TV, Moga pocket and MOga pro. Those are the ones i tried and I'm still happy with mine. May be I got a better one, or may be because I'm not a hardcore gamer and all I do is a couple of low quality games. My nephews also asked me what the crap I'm using, hahaha. But they have all kinds of gaming consoles.
Again, maybe it's just me because I actually don't own any of the other consoles and tried the controllers for a couple of times, 5-10 minutes each.
Still, the whole point is if you have that one lying around, it's better to put it to use instead of buying a new one.

Is it normal that when i launch ujr (with your ini file) it doesn't appear any window? It's icon sits on the appbar but it does nothing.
I also tried doing a configuration using x360ce but it does not seems to work.
Also, the D-pad does not work with x360ce...
Picked up a FLIRC IR receiver and it works great with the Fire TV. FLIRC will work with *any* IR remote - universal remote, Tivo, Dish, Comcast, etc. Use the media keys layout to setup play, FF, stop, etc. Use the full keyboard to setup the arrows and everything else the Fire TV remote does.

Sleep
So I was just playing around with Flirc and I noticed that the "wake/suspend" key in the "Media Keys" controller puts the Fire TV to sleep and can wake it up.
Mine stopped working after enabling usb storage. I'll try reprogramming
Got the flirc workin again by hooking it up to the PC and upgrading the firmware
I am pondering about buying a FTV and wanted to link it with my Harmony One remote.
Is FLIRC still the best choice for my remote or is this option easier to link it?
You have a lot more freedom with the FLIRC. I don't know if any is "easier" though. I have a netflix debug button on my harmony that does ctrl alt shift d that you can't do with the ortek, if that matters. I also have power off tied to a sleep button on my FLIRC. Not sure if the Ortek has that.

I bought the ortek to start off with, and it's worked fine for the most part. Aside from having a couple issues (open netflix from xbmc and there's no way to get out of netflix without grabbing the ftv remote) seems there's either a key assignment missing on my harmony or it doesn't register the key press correctly when in netflix/ftv launcher. Just ordered the FLIRC so we'll see if i have similar issues or not once i get it setup.

Bought this ortek recently, using the receiver with the harmony.
Everything works great, and I don't see why I couldn't do the ctrl+alt+D thing with this setup. Just add as many devices as you want to get the keys you need.

I bought the FLIRC and so far it is working out great.
I can't get it to work properly, when I press left, right, enter, etc. on my remote it gets registered by flirc, but instead of one press it's like it is looped (button hold down).
I have set up my harmony one to have an activity called firetv, as the standard buttons are not configured for firetv, I had to learn my harmony one some IR commands (used an dvd player remote).
In the flirc software I synced my remote with flirc (tried multiple key layouts, like firetv and full keyboard), but like described above, it doesn't recognise a key press as just one key press.
I thought it would be the harmony one, so I took my dvd remote (which I used to teach my harmone), but the same happened.
When I'm back at home, I gonna use another remote and see if that works or do you guys have another idea how to fix this?

In the flirc software I synced my remote with flirc (tried multiple key layouts, like firetv and full keyboard), but like described above, it doesn't recognise a key press as just one key press.
I thought it would be the harmony one, so I took my dvd remote (which I used to teach my harmone), but the same happened.
When I'm back at home, I gonna use another remote and see if that works or do you guys have another idea how to fix this?

I had the same problem. This guide worked perfect and it fixed it for me.

Tried both solutions (yours and Kramar111), but neither does work. In flirc in ter key delay was allready set on 3, tried to change it with no succes. Neither did the solution for the harmony one, but I don't think it is an harmony one problem, as the problem is the same with 2 different remotes.

It's now working perfectly after changing the Inter-Key Delay setting from 6 to 3 in the Flirc GUI software.

It was allready on 3, changing it to 0 does made a difference, but still often (most of the time) it got multiple signals
Edit: This morning I tried some other stuff I've found on the internet, I faced the flirc forwards and placed a book on it, so it couldn't recieve reflection from the white wall, also placed my sunglasses (polarized) in front of it. And though it now works way better, it's still 1 of 8 times that it reacts like i'm holding down the button. I also tried the official flirc remote and same problem. Any chance the flirc Noise Canceler could help?
Anyway, i'm still wondering why setting inter key delay to 0 works better then 6, wouldn't it be the other way around?
