Linux

To enable logging on linux, fire up a terminal, and using your favorite text editor, create the flirc.ini file

    bash # sudo vi /usr/bin/flirc.ini

Copy and paste the text in the file:

; @brief Flirc configuration file, currently used to setup logging

[logging]             ; Protocol configuration
loglevel = 5          ; 0 = None
; 1 = Error
; 2 = Warning
; 3 = Info
; 4 = Debug
; 5 = Verbose

libusb = true         ; Log libusb events
logtofile = true      ; True or true
append = true         ; Append or create new log file
file = flirc_log.txt  ; File to Log
desktop = true        ; Save file to Desktop, this should be set for windows

Save the file, that's it. Running the GUI will now place a log file on the desktop. To disable logging, change the loglevel to zero in the flirc.ini file.
