You neded to use the 'repeat' keyword in your lircrc file for the butons
that have the problem. This causes lircd to ignore that number of rapidly
repeating keypresses.
eg.
begin
prog = mythtv
button = Up
repeat = 2
config = Up
end
begin
prog = mythtv
button = Right
repeat = 2
config = Right
end
begin
prog = mythtv
button = Down
repeat = 2
config = Down
end
