Not to hijack, I have a newer fire stick but was using rf oem remote in addition to my URC mxhome remote system. Ordered the FLIRC Fire TV edition after reading the original post since I guess I never knew about these things.
Downloaded software plugged into laptop and picked Fire TV from dropdown menu used existing sony bluray codes and I can't believe it worked perfectly for all codes that were put in via the learning GUI in the software.
I didn't even need to put an emitter on the adapter, it worked flawlessly from the MX Home base ir blaster.
