Double click bug - direction keys

Post by jbamps »

Hi, I have installed the correct remote for my cable box. It's the telenet RC-RW100. I have one annoying problem. Whenever i use the direction keys, the remote seems to send a double signal. So browsing my tv guide is not possible since it skips 1 channel and jumps to the second one whenever i press up, down, left or right. Can anyone help me with that? Thank you

The problem is that Sling have 'hard-wired' the repeat value (I think to 3) in there remotes. So a sensitive receiver will act on the 1st & 3rd transmission. For a lot of boxes I can set the repeat to zero, but at the moment not for this one. Nevertheless I have built you a new remote, so let's see if that one has the same problem. If it does we will have to some more investigation.
