[mythtv-users] Slightly OT - IR Remote control help required

[Chris Lewis]

Hi

I have a Hauppage Nova T 500 Dual tuner DVB-t card that I'm struggling with
the remote for.

Basically it works but it just feels clunky.  The remote only seems to
respond to me releasing a button so I can press the down arrow (for
example) and hold it for as long as i like, but nothing happens until i
release it then the down action occurs on screen.

Also none of the buttons repeat which is a pain when Im trying to scroll
through a big list of recordings to something that starts with M for
instance.

My ~/.lircrc look like this

#Custom lircrc generated via mythbuntu-lirc-generator
#All application specific lircrc files are within ~/.lirc
include ~/.lirc/mythtv
include ~/.lirc/mplayer
include ~/.lirc/xine
include ~/.lirc/vlc
include ~/.lirc/xmame
include ~/.lirc/xmess
include ~/.lirc/totem
include ~/.lirc/elisa
include ~/.lirc/irexec


And ~/.lirc/mythtv contains the following

# LIRCRC Auto Generated by Mythbuntu Lirc Generator
# Author(s): Mario Limonciello, Nick Fox, John Baab
# Created for use with Mythbuntu
begin
    remote = NOVA-T500
    prog = mythtv
    button = Go
    config = Return
    repeat = 0
    delay = 0
end

begin
    remote = NOVA-T500
    prog = mythtv
    button = Guide
    config = S
    repeat = 0
    delay = 0
end

begin
    remote = NOVA-T500
    prog = mythtv
    button = ArrowUp
    config = Up
    repeat = 500
    delay = 125
end

begin
    remote = NOVA-T500
    prog = mythtv
    button = ArrowLeft
    config = Left
    repeat = 0
    delay = 0
end

Now as you can see i have made changes to the repeat numbers for the
ArrowUp key and rebooted but this key still does not repeat.

I think its all to do with the key press not registering until the button
is released.

So any ideas?

Chris
