[mythtv-users] Remote buttons "sticking" on Hauppauge WinTV Nova-T 500 PCI

[John Westbrooke]

Apologies, reposting as missed subject header.

Hi,

I have a MythTV setup using a Hauppauge WinTV Nova-T 500 PCI which I have
working fine. I used to have the remote configured but didn't use it so
removed the configs a long time ago. I just upgraded to the .20 firmware for
this device and everything is still OK, but I thought I would setup the
remote again as it would be convenient with my box in a new location.

I set everything up and seems to be OK except that whatever button I press
on the remote "sticks" e.g. if I start irw and press 1 the input I see is
11111111111111.... etc I checked it's not the actual remote by taking out
the batteries and pointing a digital camera at the IR led, it's definitely
only sending 1 instance of the command.

I'm running SuSE 10.3 and everything else is working pretty well. I can only
imagine that this is a bug in the .20 firmware or the configs I have setup.

Here is some extra info to assist in finding the cause:-

dmesg output

Hardware config /etc/sysconfig/lirc

LIRCD_DEV_PERMISSIONS="660"
LIRCD_DEV_OWNER="root:video"
LIRCD_DRIVER="dev/input"
LIRCD_DEVICE="/dev/input/event3"
LIRC_MODULE=
LIRCD_LISTENPORT=
LIRCD_CONNECT=


The lircd.conf and lircrc are both from
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV_Nova-T_500_PCI with no
changes.

If anyone can shed any light on this I'd appreciate it. I have done a full
cold start as well, powering down the machine from the PSU switch to ensure
backplane power is removed.

Thanks in advance
