Hi there,

 

Does anyone have a fix yet as to why the Raspberry Pi receives multiple keypresses through the Flirc?

 

I've scoured this forum and more looking for a fix, but it persists even through several iterations of XBMC/Kodi and Flirc firmware updates.

 

I have tried 5 different remotes, from my Harmony 300 and two different Harmony Ones, to a generic remote and the TV's remote.

 

I have tried 4 different flavours of XMBC/Kodi from RaspBMC to OpenELEC.

 

I have tried 3 different TVs with the HDMI, even used different inputs on the TVs.

 

I have tried the Pi in the basement and at my friends place to see if it was interference (RMI or wireless).

 

I have tried 3 different Flirc dongles, all with different firmwares.

 

I have tried 3 different Pi motherboards.

 

I have tried at least half a dozen different power sources, even ran the Flirc and Pi through powered hubs.

 

Every time I use a remote I get several keypresses, sometimes I have the input go on for 5 seconds or more.

 

My Pi are stock and are not overclocked.  I get the same result using either USB port or a hub.

 

I have been waiting for a solution to this for over a year now.  Nothing seems to fix it.

 

Does ANYONE have ANY configuration of Pi/Flirc working that I can resort to?  I wasn't sure where to post this as I don't know if it's a bug or something that I'm missing.

 

Thanks.

Have you tried new 3.0 beta firmware already?

Hi there,

 

No, I haven't.  I just noticed that late yesterday.  I'll do it now and report back.

Flirc v1.2.7 with beta firmware 3.0 yields the same results so far using two different remotes... 

What is your Inter-key delay setting in advanced in Flirc GUI?

6, which is the largest delay, correct?

I've heard the Harmony 300 doesn't play well with the Flirc and there's no way to change the delay using the Harmony software so I've resorted to using other remotes with the same multi-clicks.

I have mine set to 3 and I think that this is a recommended setting. I don't have Harmony remote but I've used my Flirc with 2 different LG remotes and a One-For-All universal remote. It works very well and I don't experience any of the problems you've mentioned. Try posting your problem in Firmware bugs forum or contact Jason directly via private message.
