Hello all,<br>I have a working myth setup with multiple frontends, 1 backend. i am now<br>trying to control a scientific atlanta explorer 2200 w/ ir blaster. when<br>i change a channel either from the command line or from a frontend, it's
<br>hit-or-miss. sometimes it works ok (not very often)...usually it sends<br>each digit twice, so if i send 123, the cable box receives 112233 (but<br>if i send only one digit, it seems to get sent only once.) i've tried
<br>codes that supposedly work from the various sites, they don't work at<br>all, so the codes i'm using in lircd.conf are from irrecord, using the<br>comcast remote. i've done irrecord a few times and the codes match each
<br>other every time, so they seem to be accurate. i've tried adjusting the<br>time delay between digits in change_ch.sh then restarting lirc (not sure<br>if that's necessary), doesn't seem to make much difference. i've tried
<br>both change_ch.sh and change_chan.pl and don't see anything in there<br>that can be adjusted. any ideas? incidentally i'm using a hauppage 150<br>w/mce remote (black remote, usb receiver/blaster)<br><br>thanks!
<br><br>cliff<br></blockquote></div><br>You need to modify your lircrc file. For any keys with this problem, you need to set repeat to zero.<br><br>Here is the info from <a href="http://lirc.org">lirc.org</a>:<br><dl><dt>
repeat</dt><dd>tells the program what shall happen if a key is repeated. A
value of zero tells the program to ignore repeated keys. Any
other positive value 'n' tells the program to pass the config
string every 'n'-th time to the according application, when a
key is repeated. The default for repeat is zero.</dd></dl>Here is what this section of my lircrc file look like:<br><br># Numbers 0-9<br><br>begin<br> prog = mythtv<br> button = 0<br> repeat = 0<br> config = 0
