Hi !

i get these errors, once my remote is doing key repeats:

Dec 3 23:33:13 vdr vdr: [24629] ERROR: unparseable lirc command: gy_Receiver-event-kbd#012b-Gyration_Gyration_RF_Technology_Receiver-event-kbd#01272 0 KEY_VOLUMEDOWN usb-Gyration_Gyration_RF_TechnoloKEY_VOLUMEDOWN Dec 3 23:34:14 vdr vdr: last message repeated 583 times

especially note the usb-Gyration_Gyration_RF_TechnoloKEY_VOLUMEDOWN and ...kbd#012b-.... (this should read usb-...)

is there anything forgot to reset ? A buffer to small ? Just wrong how it is read ? In irw and xbmc there seems no such issue, means the repeat just works.

i increased the buffers to:

private: enum { LIRC_KEY_BUF = 500, LIRC_BUFFER_SIZE = 4096 };

which seems to make the error disappear, but its still incredible slow (compared to other applications) in accept the keys. Can this be improved ?

You may want to add some debug outputs to cLircRemote::Action() to see what's going on. From the (garbled ;-) log entry you posted I guess there is some buffer overflow.

i missed also the sscanf string size - after changing this its better, the rest is i guess bad interaction with repeat delays (not sure what #define REPEATDELAY 350 // ms #define REPEATFREQ 100 // ms #define REPEATTIMEOUT 500 // ms do)

isn't lirc suppose to handle repeats instead of vdr ? Anyway after commenting that part out ( if (count == 0) { in Action) vdr seems a lot snappier.
