Xbox 360 DVD IR remote multiple repeats

[DBMandrake]

OK, I tried this one too (including deleting all the other remotes within, as you suggested). But unfortunately it resulted in the same behaviour.

Sounds like you probably have a problem with your IR receiver then, as the Xbox 360 profile extracted from that file works 100% for me - no repeat problems at all.

Could you tell me which IR receiver you are using? I am using a TRM1038. This OSMC reference link suggests a TSOP4838 or TSOP34138. I think mine should work fine too (given it is on the LIRC compatibility list), but might as well rule this out.

I’m using tsop38238 from here:

The Ultimate Raspberry Pi & Maker Store

Also, is the DVD remote you are using the same as the one in my link? rc6-mce-lircd.conf includes mappings for number keys (0-9), which my remote does not have - so I wonder if you have a different style of remote?

I have this one:

As far as I know the codes are the same for the buttons they have in common though.

I noticed the rc6 file you mentioned has a lot of repeat suppression (“suppress_repeats = 99”). So I even tried increasing this further up to 200, but no change in outcome. (The only difference seems to be a longer lag before the repeating start; presumably while the first 200 are ignored.)

I’d have to check but I don’t think the suppress repeats is necessary or makes any difference when I comment it out.

Based on what you’ve tried so far I suspect the problem might be with your tsop not being fully compatible (not all work well with the pi) or that you are running it from the wrong voltage rail. (A lot of tutorials suggest to run it off the 5v rail, but 3.3v is the correct one to use)
