Remote repeats button presses

jboates · 2008-08-26, 03:48

Hi folks,

I recently reformatted my HTPC, reinstalled XP, installed MP 1.0 RC2, and my MCE remote is acting funny. When I press the left/right/up/down/OK buttons, they work fine, but others, like the "i" (info) and "<-" (back) and the big circle "Play" button with the right-facing triangle on it are acting weird.

When they're pressed, it's like triple or quadruple-clicking with a mouse. Or like when you hold a key on the keyboard down for too long and it repeats.

Is there a setting to make these keys not repeat or at least repeat much slower as to not action so fast?

Thanks,

Justin

Hi Justin

Have you got any other software that could be affecting remote besides the standard ehome receiver, something like irserversuite, also check in MP config\remotes\hid is not enabled.

Regards
