Got one. The Streamzap PC Remote. Its 14-bit RC5. Can't get it to properly
decode in-kernel for the life of me. I got lirc_streamzap 99% of the way
ported over the weekend, but this remote just won't decode correctly w/the
in-kernel RC5 decoder.

Working:
Streamzap receiver + RC6 (MCE) remote, in-kernel decoding
Streamzap receiver + RC5 (Streamzap) remote, lirc decoding

Not working:
Streamzap receiver + RC5 (Streamzap) remote, in-kernel decoding
MCE transceiver + RC5 (Streamzap) remote, in-kernel decoding

Failure mode is identical between the two, leading me to believe my
streamzap port is good to go, we just have an issue to track down with rc5
decoding.

Said failure mode is that RC5 fails at STATE_INACTIVE (0) with the initial
space provided by both receivers, then gets rolling with (I believe) the
first pulse. It then gets all the way to STATE_FINISHED, and bails,
because it should be on a space there, but its on a pulse.

I've twiddled the decoder to proceed even if its a pulse, but the
resulting decoding is still no good, as multiple adjacent keys (which have
proper decoded values that only differ by 1, per lirc decoding) get
decoded to the same value as one another.

Still poking around trying to figure out the problem, but here's what the
(slightly modified to not bail when it gets to STATE_FINISHED with a
pulse) rc5 decoder is seeing/doing:

ir_rc5_decode: RC5(x) decode started at state 0 (4292819813us space)
ir_rc5_decode: RC5(x) decode failed at state 0 (4292819813us space)

ir_rc5_decode: RC5(x) decode started at state 4 (1031us pulse)
ir_rc5_decode: RC5 usually ends w/space, wtf?
ir_rc5_decode: RC5 scancode 0x1129 (toggle: 0)
ir_getkeycode: unknown key for scancode 0x1129

This was for the OK button on the remote, which in lircd, decodes to
scancode 0x12 in the lower 6 bits, high 8 bits are 0xa3 for all buttons.
At least, I think I'm decoding lircd.conf correctly. See here to be sure:
