problem with LIRC. every other press.

[DTN]

I've got a problem with lirc. I have my irw window up and it is reading just fine.

Here's my irw readings to show the remote IS working.

The problem occurs when I try to press a button and then press it, or another button. It only reads every other button press, no matter how long I wait.

What could possibly cause it to not receive every other button press? is there a setting I have wrong?

I found my problem.

/etc/lirc/Lirc.conf should read like this:

I have no idea why the lirc database repository has the snapstream LIRC.CONF programmed wrong, but the correct codes are posted above. It was expecting a 40 bit command but it was only getting 16 i guess.
