Just got my yarbo yesterday, got it all setup pretty successfully. All except getting the remote connected to the core. I have tried every suggestion i can seem to find on the internet, including what Yarbo recommends. I press the yarbo logo button, then long press the source button. nothing happens. i just get 2 lights blinking and then the controller shuts off after roughly a min. Any other tips and tricks?
