This procedure worked for two of my Vero 4k units, but something wonky about the third one. Same one I never got resolution on many months back with respect to the App store weirdness and SSH - I forget the specifics… Anyway…

Your system is not upgrading properly. Had to tell why without full logs; but you may wish to reinstall OSMC as the quickest way to get things working again.
We’re just doing final testing of an official update to address this problem which also tidies up remote repeat speed with the osmc remote (speeds it up to match the repeat speed of a flirc receiver and other keyboard-like remote devices) and fixes suspend on the vero4k. (All three problems were related to eventlircd configuration so we ended up fixing them all at once)
All going well this update will probably come out tomorrow.
Add the following line: deb http://apt.osmc.tv stretch-devel main
Run the following commands to update: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot
Your system should have have received the update.
Please see if the issue is resolved.
I also recommend you edit /etc/apt/sources.list again and remove the line that you added after updating. This will return you to the normal update channel.
Quickest in what sense? The installer is less than intuitive and installation instructions on the wiki seems like haiku.
I’ve got the installer installed on my workstation but it comes up with a different list of versions available every time I run it. Not that it matters, when it comes time to select a destination, all options are greyed out, although I do have a blank USB drive warmed up and ready to receive.
No, these updates will be just overwritten with stable release at that time.
Just suggest as @nazarko wrote to remove the staging repro from your sources.list.
I got this update on my vero 4k (armv7-eventlircd-osmc 1.3.7) and it caused problems with my IR remote (the “repeating keypress” issue), making navigation extremely difficult. Reverting back to version 1.3.4 fixed the issue for me. Does this update require some manual editing of some config file somewhere to go along with it?
I’m using an Inteset INT-422-3 programmable remote (JP1 remote programed via RemoteMaster), using the Hauppage PVR350 protocal (I created a custom conf to add a number of new codes to handle additional buttons and kodi functions that were not availble in the Hauppage conf that was in /etc/lirc/
I sent an email with the lirc conf and RM upgrade if that helps.

Did this update get released yet? Reason for asking is that I haven’t been prompted about an update. Having read the comment, I also went into OSMC itself and checked for updates, and none were reported.
Can confirm that the issue is fixed for my Harmony Bluetooth remote. Though responsiveness of the remote seems a tiny bit slower now.
Do we need to remove or back out the config file that was the original fix for this after the official update is applied? (i.e. back out the instructions in @DBMandrake post.)
creating sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/70-input-repeat.rules as documented above sort of fixes the repeat issue but it doesn’t seem quite as good as it was before, it might just be a false impression.
For example a quick press of play works as expected but holding the play button is equal to pressing the info button which brings up the episode or movie info.
I’m pretty sure this is no normal behavior and it didn’t do this before.
