ir-keytable issue on LE 8.0.1

  • Hi there,

    since I've got lirc not comfortable to run, I decide to give ir-keytable a try to manage my remote control! It seems to run very well, my remote is very fast. I'm very happy with the speed, but there is one issue left! Somehow the last used key will be remembered, but only when you use a new one! For example.

    Code
    KEY_UP, KEY_UP, KEY_UP


    works fine, very fast without issues

    Code
    KEY_UP, KEY_UP, KEY_DOWN


    the last KEY_DOWN produced a KEY_UP followed by a KEY_DOWN

    so, when I change a key, the last key is performed twice.

    Do anyone knows about this? This has to be a setting too, I think....

    So here is my Setup:
    LE 8.0.1 on an Odroid C2
    builtin ir is used with a XBox-One

    And some outputs:
    [code=php]
    LibreDROID:~ # ir-keytable
    Found /sys/class/rc/rc0/ (/dev/input/event5) with:
    Driver meson-ir, table rc-empty

    dmesg
    journalctl -a
    lsmod

    Thanks for support,

  • I haven't seen this yet on systems with current Linux kernels (RPi, x86). It could be that this is specific to the rather ancient amlogic kernel or the meson-ir device driver.

    Better ask in the Amlogic subforum, that's where the amlogic gurus hang around :)

    so long,
