Skip1s and FLIRC and vdr (Linux)

[heiko-wtb]

Hi there,

I got a Linux machine running vdr, a Skip1s and a FLIRC. Now I have two problems:

When I press a button, the command is sent several times, I have to hit the buttem extremly short. Ist there a solution yet?

In the Flirc software, I use "full keyboard", in the Skip1S I used Hauppauge/WinTV. The problem here is I can't assign two remote buttons to the same key. For example, "yellow" on the remote is "F1" on the vdr, but also "fast forward" (when watchign a video". But I can't assign two remote buttons to one keyprress. Is there a solution for this?

Bets regads,

Heiko

When using the FLIRC USB software, make sure you press and hold the button on your remote. Otherwise it will record the burst incorrectly. Try clearing and trying again. If you still have trouble, upload your config here.

You don't need to record the button twice. You would assign the same wintv button in the skip app to two locatinos, one as the yellow key, and then one as the fast forward key.

So the same wintv key is on two locations in the skip1s remote, but in the flirc usb software, you would record it once to F1. The software, depending on the state, would do the right thing regardless if you are pressing fast forward or yellow.
