Users / Re: Possible to send multiple IR codes in response to single orbiter command?
« on: February 04, 2009, 04:26:34 pm »The first, when adjusting the volume on my AV receiver (yamaha RX-V861), each volume up/down is 0.5 dB. This is fine on it's remote as you can hold the volume button down and it will repeat about 5 times a second. But on the N800, each click of the volume button is an entirely new event which takes about a second. So changing volume is very tedious. What I would like to do is have it send multiple volume commands for a single click, say send four up commands to increase the volume 2dB per click. Is this possible?
I found this thread when trying to address the same problem. I handled it by writing a 'Volume Repeater' device, which I would be happy to share. I doubt that will be necessary though, because I found the following thread (after the fact) with a patch providing better support: http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=5510.0
I didn't try this patch since my device solution was already working, but just posting here in case someone else manages to find this thread and not the other when searching on this issue.
