[How to do instruction] Using FLIRC and other USB input devices for remote control

[TheOldPresbyope]

So I managed to activate Flirc on moOde and remote controlling my Pi is working. But the funny thing is: I have to press each button twice before it works. From the command line e. g. "mpc toggle" works perfectly well, but activating it from the remote needs two keystrokes. Anyone any idea?

It's been a while since I worked with this so I'll need to get back up to speed. What remotes have you tried? (This is mostly a matter of personal curiosity.)

If you have to press a button twice to trigger an action in moOde, what do you see in the output from the thd --dump exercise when you press and release the same button twice? For all the remotes I've tried, I get the same output for each cycle. I haven't been able to replicate the odd behavior you are experiencing.
