Hello,

my regards go to the freevo developers for the latest improvements.

My personal experience with freevo's lirc-support is that it feels much smoother now (using 1.4rc1). For example, the scrolling in huge directory-lists works pretty well for me (no more annoying delays when I stop pressing the up/down key).

One issue remains for me:

Some commands (like SELECT or DISPLAY) should not have repetition at all. I often start the random playlist in a music directory accidentally when I just wanted to browse it (because I pressed a little too long).

I tried to solve this by changing my lircrc-file:

<snip>
begin
remote = SONY_PS2
button = ENTER
prog = freevo
config = SELECT repeat = 0
end


begin
       remote = SONY_PS2
       button = DISPLAY
       prog   = freevo
       config = DISPLAY
      repeat = 0
end
</snip>

I first thought that my lircd.conf (or even my remote) would be the problem. However, if I use irexec (even parallel to freevo) with the following configuration, it works without unwanted repetitions.

begin
       remote = SONY_PS2
       button = ENTER
       prog   = irexec
       repeat = 0
       config = echo "Hello world!"
end

How can this be? I thought an application using lirc would only receive one command-event for a keypress if repeat=0...

Best regards,
Markus Schneider
