xubuntu 12.10rc, x64 with a HA-IR01SV 'vista' mce remote When using the infrared remote, operations are generally buggy compared to lirc. Multiple buttons do not work, and if you hold down a key, it's repetition is buggy (ie holding it down for one second will repeat way faster than it should and for longer, so if you are choosing a selection from a list you will end up at the bottom)
It still hasn't been fixed.

You describe two issues. One is repeat handling. Repeat handling has two numbers, delay and repeat. Delay is the number of milliseconds before a key starts repeating, and repeat is the number of milliseconds before the key start repeating again (so for 3rd, 4th time etc). You can set these values with (for example): ir-keytable -D 300 -P 250 The default is -D 500 -P 125. Are these values more acceptable? I am inclined to think these numbers need improving. The second problem I don't understand. What is the problem with multiple buttons? Does lirc allow to hold down multiple buttons? Can you give an example so I can try and reproduce/understand please?
