Problems with hauppauge 45 button remote

[iamflimflam1]

Hi All,

I have a 45 button silver hauppauge remote and the Nova-TD USB stick.

Everything is all working fine except for a really annoying problem with the remote control.

Some of the buttons seem to get stuck repeating when they are pushed.

For example the "Back/Exit" button. I push it once and then sage TV seems to constantly want to go back until I hit the button again.

The fast forward and rewing buttons have the same behaviour - but the repeat on them is so fast that you can easily fast forward all the way through a program before you can hit the play button.

I actually don't want any of the buttons to auto repeat, but I cannot find any settings that would make it behave like this and there's nothing showing up in any of the forums.

I'm running Sage TV 6.4

Thanks for any suggestions

cheers
Chris.

No idea what I did, but downloading the irremote.txt from the forums and then messing around with it seems to have fixed things...

No to work out what I actually changed.

I thought it was working, but it's not.

Still the weird repeating behaviour.

You are using the 45 button remote from Hauppage and not some sort of other universal remote ?

This sounds like an rc5 toggle bit issue that some universal remote have.

If you are using the original with new batteries.. sounds like a bad remote or bad ir receiver.

I use the silver 45 button Hauppauge remote with SageTV and if I hold a button down for a fraction of a second too long it will repeat. I fixed the problem by adding {sleep(1000)} to every button I wanted to delay in the irremote.ini file located in C:\Windows. Now if I push lets say the power button, it will not repeat unless it is held down for more than a second.
