Hi !

I've been using the Flirc GUI v.3.27.16 and I'd like to change the duration of a keypress. Is that possible ?

Example : I've paired a button with the "A" key. And when I press the button only a single A appears in a text editor.

But trying some games with it, the key press duration is too long and triggers 2 in game a presses.

 

Anyway to change that in a config or something ?
Thanks

This is really dependent on the operating system. It's usually referred to the key repeat time. The game might be overriding it because the flirc shows up as a keyboard, no reason otherwise it would have a different rate than the OS. Let us know what you find.

Thanks for the answer @jason But I don't think it's that

I used this site to test it : https://www.clickspeedtester.com/keyboard-latency-test/
 

When I use my physical keyboard, the duration of the press is usually around 70-80ms (q key in the screenshot)
But when it's triggered with flirc, it's always 192ms minimum (a key in the screenshot)

So the keypress triggered by flirc is 2.5 times longer than my regular key presses

How about the other keys recorded, 's', 'w', etc.

Can you also go to file->advanced, and then enable IR debugging. Press and hold the right arrow, save and send that here too.

It looks very strange. Are you super close to it? Make sure to aim at the ceiling if you are. Also, batteries could be low on the remote. It's not getting clear signals.

I tried various angles and distances and battery change and it's always the same.

But, isn't it your software that translate those signals into a virtual keystroke.
Can't something be parametrized at that level, adjusting the virtual keystroke ?

Because other than the length of the press everything is working fine, it's pressing the right keys at the right time.
