Really?

@craigh1960 can you either test latest Milhouse build or add smsc95xx.turbo_mode=N to cmdline.txt and report if it helps?

Hi

I added the item....
cmdline.txt
boot=/dev/mmcblk0p1 disk=/dev/mmcblk0p2 quiet
smsc95xx.turbo_mode=N

After a reboot i did not notice any significant change.
I am running OpenElec 5.08

Sorry My mistake

I have now added it as a a command line option as below

cmdline.txt
boot=/dev/mmcblk0p1 disk=/dev/mmcblk0p2 quiet smsc95xx.turbo_mode=N

Now the remote is much more responsive during MPEG 2 playback

Will do some more testing and report back

Further testing shows the remote is now fully responsive with the cmdline change.

What is the difference between the command line fix and fix in the later code builds ?

It's the same fix. smsc95xx.turbo_mode=N has always been available as an option, but we recently got advice from the author of the smsc95xx (ethernet) driver that disabling turbo by default was recommended, so that got changed by default in the latest kernel. So any future builds should have turbo disabled by default, but you can manually disable it with an older build.

Hi
I bought a remote and TSOP38238 for my RPI but cant get it to work with Kodi
This is what i have https://learn.adafruit.com/using-an-ir-r...r/overview
I used these "putty ssh" commands to test
sudo modprobe lirc_rpi
sudo kill $(pidof lircd)
mode2 -d /dev/lirc0
It seems to work because i do get the text on the screen when i press the buttons
But it wont work in Kodi MC
Please if anyone can help?
I'm not sure what I'm missing here
