The state machine seems to be working fine with the code, but I think I found the issue: it was expecting 14 bits after the start+toggle bits, instead of a total of 14 bits. I'll fix it. I'll probably end by simplifying it to have only 3 states: inactive, mark-space and trailer. >> Unfortunately, there's some problem with either my Remote Controller or >> with the saa7134 driver.

The code on saa7134 has a way to adjust the time, plus a logic a timer to adjust the end of a RC5 code reception. It seems a good idea to allow adjusting those timers via sysfs. > I have attached a larger capture of (attempted) single presses of the > digits '0' through '9' and then an intentionally held down press of '7'. > > With a quick glance, I don't see pauses from the grey remote. Thanks for your dumps!
