I assume you mean "different mark/space timing for the symbol for which
they are the same length" (in NEC that's the '0' symbol IIRC).
  

I've noticed different mark/space timings for the '0' symbol from NEC
remotes and with some RC-5 remotes.  I usually attribute it to cheap
remote designs, weak batteries, capacitive effects, receiver pulse
measurement technique, etc.

Here's an example of NEC remote from a DTV STB remote as measured by the
CX23888 IR receiver on an HVR-1850:

8257296 ns  mark
4206185 ns  space
        leader
 482926 ns  mark
 545296 ns  space
        0
 481296 ns  mark
1572259 ns  space
        1
 481148 ns  mark
 546333 ns  space
        0
 479963 ns  mark
 551815 ns  space
        0
 454333 ns  mark
1615519 ns  space
        1
 435074 ns  mark
 591370 ns  space
[...]

I don't know the source of the error.  I would have to check the same
remote against my MCE USB receiver to try and determine any receiver
induced measurement errors.

But, in Maxim's case, the difference isn't bad: 450/525 ~= 86%.  I would
hope a 15% difference would still be recognizable.

Is JVC enabled by default?  I recall analyzing that it could generate
false positives on NEC codes.
