I spent hours banging my head against the wall, controller just doesn't give a stable keypresses, skips a lot of them. Increasing polling interval from default 100 ms to 400-500 ms helps a bit, but it only masks the problem. Decreasing polling interval below 50ms makes it skip virtually 90% of keypresses. Basicly during the I2C operation that reads scancode, controller seems to stop processing input from IR sensor, resulting a loss of keypress. So the solution(?) I found was to decrease the udelay in ivtv_i2c_algo_template from 10 to 5. Guess it just doubles the frequency of ivtv i2c bus or something like that. Problem went away, IR controller is now working as expected. So question is: 1) Is it ok to decrease udelay for this board? 2) If yes, how to do it right? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
