Hi Guys,
Nearly finished setting up my ION machine with Ubuntu 9.04 minimal and XBMC but I'm having an issue with Lirc and my MCE Remote.
Every few button presses get repeated unless I really tap it fast on the remote, and even then sometimes its doing the action twice.
I have run 'irw' and can see that my MCE Remote (Genuine Philips one) is indeed a bit hasty at sending out the codes, for each button press its sending 2 or 3 signals.
From what I can tell LIRC only supports entering a repeat delay inside a .lircrc file, which from what I gather XBMC doesn't use as it has an interface directly into LIRC..
So, the question is - Do we have any way of specifying a repeat delay within XBMC since I can't do it on LIRC's side?
I tried the <remoterepeat> in advancedsettings.xml but even with this set to 1000 it has no effect, so I guess that one is XBOX only ?
Any advice would be appreciated as navigating XBMC is proving a little tricky atm :p
