LIRC TSO4838 skips step - mightymike82 - 26th Feb, 2013 02:20 AM
Hi all,
I've succesfully soldered my TSOP4838 to my Rpi and configured it (thnx to Curly Mo).
All is working fine except for one small thing,
My remote (harmony 700) skips a step with every press on de direction keys, taking it one step to far (left, right up down).
This problem is resolved by a restart of lirc (/etc/init.d/lirc restart)
So everytime I boot up my Pi I have to restart LIRC.
Anyone got a solution to the problem? or a way to restart lirc when xbmc is loaded.
Thanx

First try to add the restart of lirc to /etc/rc.local

unfortunatly that didn´t work (or I´m doing it wrong ,which is a possibility
I've changed my rc.local as below and added an execution bit (chmod +x)
Terminal
#!/bin/sh -e
#
# rc.local
#
# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
# value on error.
#
# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
# bits.
#
# By default this script does nothing.
/etc/init.d/lirc restart
exit 0

Try commenting the mceusb section from /usr/local/share/xbmc/system/Lircmap.xml.

That workt
, it's not skipping steps anymore but now I'm missing a lot of buttons, especially the ok button to select.
RE: LIRC TSO4838 skips step - CurlyMo - 28th Feb, 2013 05:54 AM
You have two options. Remove the double keypresses from either the lircmap.xml or from lirc itself and leave the rest in.

Can you add "suppress_repeats 2" to you remote.conf header.
RE: LIRC TSO4838 skips step - matej9o - 3rd Mar, 2013 04:56 AM
After adding "suppress_repeats 2" in /home/xbian/remote.conf and /etc/lirc/lircd.conf :
Terminal
begin remote

header 9043 4450
one 611 1638

repeat 9041 2200
pre_data_bits 16
pre_data 0xE896
gap 107966
toggle_bit_mask 0x0
suppress_repeats 2

my remote don't work at all.

Now I managed to make it work, but only when trying in irw. Irw show only one line for one button. When I'm tried it on xbmc it works like before, 2 movement for 1 button press.
