MCE-Remote: Volume key is not repeating - tkn777 - 2013-04-30 Hi again, I am using XBMC (12.1) with an Hama MCE (Ortek VRC-1100) remote-control under Debian Linux without lirc. My keyboard.xml for volume is: Code: <keymap> Most buttons (e.g. Up-Button) are repeating: I can press it and hold it and the associated action is repeated since I release the button. But not the volume-buttons: I have to press it again and again to reduce or increase the volume. Does anybody has any idea how to change this behaviour? Thanks in advance for any help!! Thomas PS: This may be an OS-specific-problem, but I am not sure of this, so I choose the general board.

As a test, try mapping some buttons that do repeat to the VolumeUp and VolumeDown actions and see if they repeat when held down. For example, if you know the Up and Down buttons repeat, you can add the following to the global section of your keyboard.xml file to swap the actions of the Up/Down and VolumeUp/VolumeDown buttons: Code: <up>VolumeUp</up> RE: MCE-Remote: Volume key is not repeating - tkn777 - 2013-05-01 You are right: It is a problem of the remote. It works well when I switch the buttons as you mentioned above; Also the linux-command "showkeys" says that the key code for this button is submitted only once. RE: MCE-Remote: Volume key is not repeating - zosky - 2013-07-31 i have the same remote and issue. the IR-receiver blinks per key-press it also continues blinking till you let go it does this for any button, volume or direction what ( between the dongle & the tv ) is ignoring repeat for only the volume keys ? im looking for some assistance. where can i force this setting usb rules ? x11 keyboard ? kernel switches ? |
