I calculate it took about 3ms so you saved me an hour :-) Rick ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
[mythtv-users] FC3 and learning remote
I've been using a learning remote instead of going the lirc route. Worked fine on FC1 but on FC3 not so perfect. The keyboard works perfectly but when using the remote (an HTR-2) only the first key press of each button works, subsequent presses do nothing although you can see that the remote is sending. It's got me baffled, tried relearning, resetting the remote, rebooting but always the same result. The keyboard is an ir Chicony KB-9820. The remote still operates the tv, receiver, dvd player without any problems. The only things that have changed have been updating to FC3 (a fresh install) and upgrading to the 0.17 release. I believe it is FC3 related because the same behavior occurs when hitting the remotes buttons in a terminal window.
