</div>Nope. When I press Up I don't want it to register Down/Up. Just Up. :)<br>
<br>
It is still doing something strange. One key press usually (or always?)<br>
generates two presses one of which is held until the next key is pressed<br>
at which time they both come out.<br>
<br>
In the output above I had hit a bunch of down keys. Waited a few seconds<br>
then ran irw and hit a single Up. At that point the buffered Down is emitted<br>
along with an Up.</blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this behavior. I've been hacking away at my lircd.conf trying to fix it. I've resorted to my wireless keyboard until this gets sorted.</div>

<br>I think I'm getting double inputs from my remote because both lirc and evdev at using it as an input device. When I press some keys on my remote, they seem to be doing things twice. For example, press the up or down I sometimes skip an item in the menu. However, I think this is related to evdev and lirc running at the same time.<br>
<br>if I run `xev` and `irw` in two seperate terminal windows and then press the up and down keys on the remove I get in 'xev':<br><br>KeyPress event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x4800001,<br> root 0xbf, subw 0x0, time 654082, (630,511), root:(634,560),<br>

XFilterEvent returns: False<br><br>and in 'irw' i get:<br><br>000000037ff07be1 00 Up mceusb<br>000000037ff07be0 00 Down mceusb<br>000000037ff07be0 01 Down mceusb<br><br>As a result, my remote now skips every second menu item.<br>
<br>Why is this worse? We, because (and I'm taking an educated quess here) there were keypress delay issues in older kernels than the one above, if I pressed the buttons on the remote quickly, I saw only the output in the irw window. However, if I held the button a little longer, i got output in both windows. In the example above, I wouldn't have seen the KeyPress/Release event for the 'Up' action, but I would have got both Down events.<br>
<br>Is it fair to assume that both evdev and lirc are giving mythtv a command each and that's why I'm going up and down two menu items at a time?<br><br>How can I fix this?<br><br><br>Rodd<br></div></div>
