MCE Upgrade Sluggish

Post by benjamintm »

Hi All,
I've been using the latest upgrade (Dec/2004) from the files section to control my MCE 2005. I've noticed that with my 15-2116 commands aren't always caught by the MCE box. I see the MCE infrared receiver flash, but MCE ignores the command. With the MCE remote all the actions are caught consistently. I've tried different 15-2116 remotes and get the same problem. None of my other components have any problems with the 15.2116 and work consistently. Has anyone else experienced similar problems?

Thanks,
Ben

I modified the protocol to send 3 burst minimum. That seems to make it more reliable.

Sounds like it operating normally for none MCE remotes, they all suffer from toggle bit, which the oem remote doesn't. You can turn off the toggle bit, do a internet search for mce debounce.
