I think you are SOL. The FAV/SCAN button is hard coded to send the
same keycode at regular intervals until the FAV/SCAN button is pressed
again. This is to implement an internal channel scanning solution. This
is the same way that some remotes implement an internal sleep function
(i.e.: there is an internal timer in the remote that sends the power
button IR code after a specified delay and assumes the remote is pointed
at the device that you are trying to power off).
Unless you can change the way the remote works (not just keycodes)
I don't see how this can be changed. It might be possible to do via
JP1 though (I have never used JP1 programming).
BTW: my remote does the same thing. I just didn't map that button
and I don't press it ;-)
