flaviosa Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 Hi guys, I really don't what do do here. My Flirc keep sending the back button from time to time (like I pressed the back) what happens is when I am watching a movie xbmc returns to the previous screen all the time. If I leave only my receiver and my pi on I can hear the key presses from time to time. What can I do? I setup my harmony with the Flirc Media Profile so there is no chance that interference is the problem. Thanks Quote
Nobuddy0816 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 Which XBMC-Version are you using? The Gotham betas and the rc1 have an issue with remotes (ir and RC), which causes randomly nonstop key repeats. This isn't an issue due to the flirc device. I'm searching for a solution at the moment, but didn't found anything yet. 1 Quote
flaviosa Posted May 4, 2014 Author Report Posted May 4, 2014 I am using Gotham rc1. Do you think if I move to a different distro will help? like Xbian or Raspmc? Quote
Nobuddy0816 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Posted May 4, 2014 No, this is an issue to xbmc itself. Raspbmc has a workaround in its settings, but this do not work for me. You can use the latest stable version (OpenELEC 3.2.4) or Raspbmc with XBMC 12.3. There you will have no problems. I have two pi's running with raspbmc (Gotham RC1) running. The one using the flirc device is running without any issues, even no constantly repeats. The second one is running the same config, but using a keysonic rc remote. Here this nasty issue persists. I'm trying to play with the advancedsettings.xml at the moment. I will post the results ;) Quote
flaviosa Posted May 4, 2014 Author Report Posted May 4, 2014 I just installed the 3.2.4 and the ghost touches are still there. It keeps hitting the back button by itself all the time. So annoying. Need to find another alternative. or my flirc device is defective. Quote
flaviosa Posted May 4, 2014 Author Report Posted May 4, 2014 Sure! here it is: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tay54apnpfyorr6/Flirc-Config.fcfg But all I did was loading the Flirc profile from myharmony website Never recorded a single button. Quote
jason Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 You definitely have keys recorded: File->Clear Configuration to remove all the keys from the device. You have multiple buttons recorded, some of them are probably noise, so that's the problem. ⚡ flirc_util settings flirc_util version v1.2.2 [v1.2.2-38-g44ce387+] Firmware: v2.3 Settings: sleep detection: Disabled noise canceler: Disabled inter-key delay: 6 state: 0 builtin profiles: Enable Memory Info: keys recorded: 42 keys remaining: 127 memory used: 33% Recorded Keys: Index hash key ----- --------- --- 0 564BDB2D c 1 98A09CA6 i 2 569C9742 return 3 5A4ED8FB escape 4 D643DDA5 up 5 98A06C59 left 6 98317117 down 7 5A8E00CB right 8 18DF869B ' 9 98B9FA15 . 10 568F2D26 r 11 5A129B6C f 12 9817D1BC x 13 187DC197 space 14 654A801E up 15 493207AB up 16 90CD4E5 down 17 89E89C89 left 18 C70F5D7C backspace 19 6506D070 up 20 6D590996 up 21 6D9D5C48 down 22 6DE1ADEB left 23 6D9DBB52 right 24 6D9D39EC return 25 6D9DBBF2 backspace 26 CFBAA99 i 27 D3DDD74 p 28 4E257E98 space 29 8D2489D6 x 30 6D25E44A i 31 6DE1B1C7 p 32 6D9D3DC8 space 33 6D9D5E15 x 34 6DE19485 i 35 6D598B0B f 36 6D9DFF0A r 37 6D9DDAD0 backspace 38 6DE18A8F i 39 4D614687 [ 40 8C6051C5 ] 41 6D9D3FF5 c Quote
flaviosa Posted May 5, 2014 Author Report Posted May 5, 2014 I will try cleaning the configuration and trying again. Quote
Nobuddy0816 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 But it's still fact, that you will probably face random key repeats using xbmc gotham beta thru rc1. The recently released final isn't available for our pi yet. To check, if your flirc device is faulty, just try another remote around you, learn the basic keys to flirc and see, if the flirc devices behavior is changed (or still repeating the back key). Is it only the back key, which is causing the issue? Quote
flaviosa Posted May 8, 2014 Author Report Posted May 8, 2014 It was only the back button. Its been 3 days since I cleaned all the buttons and its not happening any more. All sorted and I am using the latest openelec beta. Quote
lightmanster Posted May 24, 2014 Report Posted May 24, 2014 Same problem over here with Beta 4.0.2 Gotham. For now Iam gonna switch to 3.2.4 I thought it was powersupply problem. Glad to know it is bug in XBMC. Thanks for your input nobuddy0816 Quote
