Insignia / Sanyo JP1 remote - pause protocol

I installed the pause protocol on this, and it does work, but not very well. No matter how long I set the pause, it is always about 3/4 of a second. For example, if I set it to $10 or $20 or $30, they all still seem to be about 3/4 of a second. Not the end of the world though, I just used several phantom1 key presses in my macro to make the pause longer. Has anyone else noticed this behavior, or am I doing something wrong?

To properly diagnose whether you're doing something wrong, or not, we would need to see your IR file.

As Rob said post your files. Without them, you are asking us to guess. However I think I have a pretty good GUESS. In some of the newer remotes UEI has hijacked the PID that we used the pause protocol. If you are using RM, RM doesn't provide a protocol to copy, because it thinks that the pause protocol is built in. So when the pause is executed its sending a signal that takes about 3/4 of a second, instead of waiting x amount of time.
