resume from windows stays in picture

If I select a movie I havent finished before XBMC will ask me if I want to start over from beginning or resume from e.g. 5:16.

If I select resume, this window will dissapear, playback will start, and then the screen will reappear again. I can then click resume again which will cause the window to dissapear, and it will not make it resume again (video playback is unaffected).

You're running Linux and are using LIRC. It's a remote problem that only appears to effect LIRC - it's sending two click messages, which you'll see from the log.

Thanks. I'll take your word on that. Is there any way around this, or just something to live with?

The way around it is for someone with developer knowledge to reproduce this and then fix it.

This bug has been in existence for at least 6 months, likely much longer than that. Clearly none of the linux-based developers either have the problem or don't consider it something that's a priority. Perhaps you could help by checking on the trac ticket and specifying exactly how you reproduce this, what hardware, software (LIRC version) you use, and what configuration of that software you use. Make it easy for a developer to reproduce (if necessary by helping supply hardware) and I'm sure someone will take the time to get it fixed.

I had this problem when I was using a Universal Remote (Harmony) instead of the Remote that came with the receiver.

I have since switched from using the RealMagic Remote control, to a XBOX DVD Dongle modded to a USB. The Logitech harmony works well with this and doesn't send multiple events.

Also you will notice when using a "irw" you will see atleast 4 events get passed to XBMC so likely its going do a couple of things extra!

I'l look it up, thanks.
