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.

I've tried the Justboom remote and an older one for a Marantz CD Player, both to the same effect.

thd --dump etc. shows the following:

First press of the button: not reaction, second one:

EV_KEY  KEY_STOPCD      1       /dev/input/event1
# KEY_STOPCD    1       command
EV_KEY  KEY_STOPCD      0       /dev/input/event1
# KEY_STOPCD    0       command

The Marantz remote worked without this double press effect on a lircd install on Volumio...

Thanks for you help.
