Description
Boxee Box is updated to LIRC .87 but unfortunately some problems remain. When using any USB IR receiver that complies to the Microsoft USB MCE2 specification, there are scenarios where boxee box sees a double push of the "okay" or "select" button. For example, when selecting "movies" from the home screen you will often get a double button push sound and sometimes the first movie is then selected without the user intending that behavior.
This occurs most frequently when navigating back to the home screen from other sections of the menu, such as navigating back to home from movies.
Additionally many IR button mappings are still not correct for a number of remotes that should be fully supported in LIRC .87 including previously mentioned HP MCE2 remotes, Ortek VRC-1100 remote ("MCE Vista" remote), etc.
For a discussion of desired key mapping behavior please see the last few posts in this thread;

This is considered a major bug by the audio video enthusiast community as it prevents use of the Boxee in larger home theater systems driven by integrated IR control systems.

| Comment | [ I just also wanted to point out, regarding the importance/significance of this issue, that it is currently marked as Early-Access only. If this were a public issue, I can pretty much guarantee that we'd be seeing 50+ votes on it already. If you want to see customer votes in this issue to help gauge the desire, simply change the status to open (for all) and I'll bring the votes. ;) ] |
