(YARC for mobile web interface is awesome!). then i've found here in the forum a solution to get my tunein and radio addons controlled over my mobile phone. added a powerswitch ( powerblock wired with a led and a toggle switch. #OPENELEC FLIRC BLUETOOTH#Where i spend several hours to get the bluetooth and the touchscreen working proberly and automatically. So i've end up with kodi (i have other raspbery/htpc with kodi in my home).Īfter bougth a bluetooth speaker and a adafruit 5" touchscreen i ended up with the OSMC Distribution I've tried several distributions for my Raspberry to get a nice small webradio first but none of them where that flexible to me still not finished (need some painting i guess and some additional extras) #OPENELEC FLIRC PC#Studio 690, Studio 20, Signature Sub 1)ĪSRock Vision 3D HTPC (will be replaced by Steiger Dynamics PC System on Order) This is my first home theater build dedicated to Kodi, BluRay Movies, and gaming.ġ13" Screen Innovations 1.4 Gain Black Diamond Screenġ1.1 speaker setup (Paradigm Studio 100. Well after years of media consumption and enjoyment I decided it was time to take the next step, after about a year of work.here is where I spend most of my time. Slowly but surely you realize that 32 inch hdtv isn't cutting it and you switch to something bigger, then you realize hdtv speakers are awful and switch to a proper sound system. Then you discover xbmc (now known as kodi) and suddenly presentation matters.that WD TV changes into a proper htpc and that 500gb external hard drive transforms into a proper NAS setup with over 60tb of hard drives. #OPENELEC FLIRC 720P#It's funny how you start with something as simple as a WD TV and an external hard drive watching your movies and tv shows on a 32 inch 720p HDTV, not really caring how content is presented but rather just the fact that you are watching it is enough. To turn if on and off, you only have to press the top of the Flirc case. The PI and modul placed into the Flirc case. Then it was time to put it all together (had to get hold of some 2.5x25mm machine screws for assembly) And lastly rout out some of the fixings inside of the case. Then drilled/filled out the holes for the power supply and IR/LED window (pictures of those further down).Īlso had to drill out a hole for the power button, countersink two slots to place fastning nuts. Next step was to modify the Flirc case itself.įirstly I masked the whole aluminium case with masking tape, to protect the paint on the Flirc. The RTC unit is also been covered with electrical tape, since it will just be lying about in the case then it's closed up. That small sylinder at the front of the board is a spacer, made of 6mm pipe with masking tape, that slots right in between the two holes on the RPI and modul. Lastly the IR and LED units on the ON/OFF modul where attached to wires, since I'm planning to place them to the "front" of the Flirc case. I've also removed the plastic power button on the top of the ON/OFF modul, you'll see why later. The GPIO plug on the RTC unit has been removed completly, and then soldered it to wires that connect it to the ON/OFF modul. Since these 2 units share the samme placement on the GPIO pins, I was wondering if this was possible to place into the Flirc case.īut the 2 units only share 1 Ground pin, so after a little soldering (with thx to my brother), I ended up with this looking modul. a RTC unit, incase the PI isn't connected to the internet ( ). I've currently got a RPI 2, so to the this I added: I would rather that my parents press a button to power down the PI than yank the power cord out. #OPENELEC FLIRC PORTABLE#So I've been tinkering about with an idea to make my current small and portable PI in it's Flirc case a little more parent proof.
