XBMC +EG=> Multiple keep pressed buttons nasty

Post by sexus6 »

Hi
I use XBMC with Eventghost:
1.- I reinstalled mce driver found at this web, to replace eHome driver that windows install.( http://www.eventghost.org/wiki/MCE_Remote_FAQ )
2.- I open Evenghost, add XBMC plugin and MCE remote plugin.
3.- I configure buttons.

At this point, XBMC reply well to my config. But there is something wrong. I have XBMC in xbox, and his remote. In that case, I browse at xbmc menus keeping push UP or DOWN buttons. This makes that the focus or cursor moves through elements so fast.

At Evenghost + MCE remote is very nasty this. I can't keep pushed buttons. To move UP or DOWN, I have to release button in each movement. This is very slow and unusable to browse through a screen with multiple elements (like a folder at LAN with 20 or 30 mp3 or videos).

The only configuration that I see for this, is at MCE plugin properties, here there is a option to specify numeric valor. This is set by default to 0,15. I change this with some tests....for Example :

- With >= 0,15 : UP button, if I keep press, only one UP action is done. I have to press and release for each UP that I want to make.

- With <0,15 = UP button, if I keep press, multiple UP is done (perfect) but... If I press and release to make only one UP, 2 or 3 UP actions are triggered.

I test with all range 0.00, 0.05, 0.10... But there is not any config that works so well. I disable and enabled HID from this screen too, but there is no result.

I want same funcionality like XBMC in xbox and his remote... Is this possible?
