I was going to disable auto-repeat because it has done that with the volume key and ends up blasting out my livingroom in like 5 seconds. I have learned to make sure the remote is pointing directly at the sensor before pressing keys because of this.<br>

The benefit is I have a full keyboard that uses the same sensor as my TV Controller but this method sounds better tweaked. They should take the IR Sensor out of its housing and make it plugin to an internal USB Port on the motherboard and fit in the 3 1/2" floppy bay or something (cause you know, I use my floppy drive all the time these days, LOL!)<br>

I guess it would involve setting it's keymap to something firefox/silverlight understands when you start netflix and back to a myth keymap when you close it off. (I have a sapphire remote which makes it easy to change keymaps via a script <a href="http://rtr.ca/sapphire_remote/">http://rtr.ca/sapphire_remote/</a> ).<br>
