The thing is, that I have a full keyboard attached to this unit and of course I'm using this keyboard to enter the numbers. And when I press the 1 on the keyboard I have to press 11111111 to get a 1 there. This is kinda annoying if you want enter the episode number to the shows. s999911111111e999911111111 is what I have to enter for s01e01.
