I have USBUIRT installed and running well with EventGhost. I can't get the auto repeat to work though. If I press and hold a remote button, I only get a single event in EG. I've used the "LearnHelper" utility, and that shows repeating codes being received by the USBUIRT (and the USBUIRT light flashes repeatedly). I've tried the "Pass short repeats . . ." option both checked and unchecked. Nothing is working to send repeats.
I'm running the latest beta (3.6.1428) and have searched the forums to no avail. Win XP Pro SP 2. Anyone have any ideas?
TIA

USBUIRT Remote Repeat
Re: USBUIRT Remote Repeat
Have you tried the auto repeat current macro option in eventghost?
If not
Assume your using it for volume control.
Right click your macro, Add Action, Eventghost-->Auto repeat current macro.
If not
Assume your using it for volume control.
Right click your macro, Add Action, Eventghost-->Auto repeat current macro.

Re: USBUIRT Remote Repeat
It's there, and turned on or turned off, it's the same thing. I don't see why the macro would repeat at all if EG is only receiving a single USBUIRT event, not repeating/multiple events. Any thoughts why EG would be receiving only a single event?

Re: USBUIRT Remote Repeat
Does the tray-icon stay red while you hold down a button?

No, it flashes red and then stays green.

Re: USBUIRT Remote Repeat
I had the same problem and it turned out to be the remote itself. Try using a different one.

Re: USBUIRT Remote Repeat
Thanks for the thought, but the remote is working correctly according to both Girder and the "LearnHelper" utility.

Re: USBUIRT Remote Repeat
It shows either 170000F00BC0 or 150000302FFC (the Hauppauge is a two code remote).

Re: USBUIRT Remote Repeat
Ok, some more information. My setup is as follows. I have a macro that receives the raw codes from remote and then generates a "VolumeUp" or "VolumeDown" event. I have two other macros that respond to the "VolumeUp" and "VolumeDown" events that actually control the volume.
When I have the "VolumeUp" and "VolumeDown" macros respond directly to the remote event, then the repeat works (with the use of the AutoRepeat action).
Alternatively, I can add the AutoRepeat action to the macro that generates the "Volume*" events, but the OSD doesn't update until the repeating is done.
