Decided to try and setup SageTV beta 1.4.8 with my USB-UIRT. Thought maybe I could simplify my Girder life. I am using a Phillips MCE Remote with it. I started learning the keys and everything was going fine until I reached 0,1, & 2. These 3 keys seemed to keep generating the same code in some instances. Where I learned 0 & 1 and then when I did 2 it said it was the same as 0 and do I want to change it. It became a comedy of errors because I would always get 2 out of the 3 before they wanted to start swapping. I say this is odd because I do use Girder and all the codes are unique. I also used myHTPC with a plugin that allowed me to use the USB-UIRT and again, all unique codes. Keep in mind the Phillips MCE remote does generate 2 unique codes for each key pressed and released. Don't think this is the issue because it would have showed up in the other programs. Any help would be appreciated.

My GML file, linked on the page in my signature, has a section for the MCE Remote. All the keys work.

Actually I am using your gml file in Girder. Modified it and it is working quite well. I thought I would utilize Sage's capability of supporting the USB-UIRT and configure Sage itself for the remote work. The MCE Remote is working fine in Girder for me. It is when I have configured to use it in Sage, without Girder that I am having the duplicate shifting codes betwwen 0,1 & 2. Haven't seen this in the 2 other programs I have that can learn remote codes. (Girder and myHTPC)
