timeout waiting for UIR thread

Postby ambarnes » Thu Apr 02, 2009 6:35 pm

Hi all

I'm evaluating a USB-UIRT with Girder 5.0.8 and am having stability problems. The main one is the USB-UIRT ceasing to function during my experiments sending IR blasts to my TV & AVR, or when learning codes from my remotes.

Girder's log states that it is sending IR commands but the USB-UIRT LED does not blink and I get a "timeout waiting for UIR thread" error when learning. Note that the unit's LED still flickers when I fire a remote into it. A reboot fixes this problem every time.

I've had a couple of Girder crashes around the same time. I've forwarded the error reports to Promixis.

It's conceivable that this is a Girder issue. Is there an alternate Windows app anyone can recommend that can talk to the USB-UIRT and check its status - and that of its driver? It would be nice to narrow the problem down. A diagnostic app, maybe just something to read the firmware version and flash the LED as a confidence test, would be perfect.

FWIW my PC is a Dell Core 2 quad running Vista 32 SP1.

Thanks...
