hstamas 153 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Just tried Button Mapper on my Sony and still have the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37118 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Are you using the remote in mouse mode where it puts a mouse pointer on the screen? Not that that should matter but just trying to reproduce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1259 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 In my case no. If you want to reproduce it, buy a Flirc for 25$ on Amazon and return it after testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the one I got I can't reproduce with so I'm going to try the exact one that was mentioned above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37118 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 OK I have the GS30 and I can reproduce, so that's good. I'll work on getting this resolved as quickly as I can. Do you actually find this thing comfortable to use? The shape of it makes for an awkward feel in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do admit that the shape and button geometry of G30S leave a lot of room for improvement. If you now any alternatives in this process range ($10...$20) with similar features (RF air mouse with navigation buttons + learning IR remote + integrated mic for Google assistant), but with better ergonomics, please let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37118 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 This is the one I initially got because I figured I would get something that is used by more people: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08VN98V93 And that remote is definitely much better than the G30, but the problem didn't occur with it so I couldn't use it for testing this issue.

Thanks, that has much better ergonomics and button geometry with same features. I will check, what they ask for it in China... 1 h later: I checked the G20S remote (and the Pro variant and the Pro BT variant). Unfortunately in G20S (and in its variants) you can use the IR learn function only for the power key and for the mute key. Rest of the keys work only with RF/BT and cannot be taught any IR codes. Such a shame, since otherwise this would have been perfect. Edited January 16, 2022 by anhil Additions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anhil 7 Posted January 16, 2022 Author Share Posted January 16, 2022 I ended up ordering this G40S (not from Amazon though), which is basically G30s with the awkward shape and button geometry corrected: https://www.amazon.com/Strqua-Gyroscope-Learning-Remote-Android/dp/B08L8ZGRLG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37118 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Hi, can you please try this and let us know how it compares: Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked this v 3.2.36 and unfortunately it still multiplies the pressing of the navigation keys of my factory provided BT remote on my TCL 43C725 television. Similarly as with the previous versions, turning on the accessibility service of the Button Manager app removes the multiplication problem. I will next it it with my MECOOL KM6 Deluxe and report the results shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anhil 7 Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 and having tested the same with MECOOL with both the factory provide BT remote and with G30s, the results are the same i.e. the multiplication phenomenon is still there. As before, Button Mapper with its accessibility service does not help like it helped with TCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1259 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Also for me no inprovement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anhil 7 Posted February 9, 2022 Author Share Posted February 9, 2022 I can add some more results obtained with remotes not yet reported: TCL 43C725 running Google TV & Emby for Android 3.2.36 and Tikigogo T3M remote => no multiplication effect, not even with Button Mapper disabled (!) MECOOL KM6 Deluxe running Android TV 10 & Emby for Android 3.2.36 and Tikigogo TK3 remote => multiplication effect is still there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hstamas 153 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Had the chance to try this on my bedroom TLC 40". Latest Android beta with Button Mapper on and off. Not working in either case. Its not as bad as on my Sony TV but I still get consistent double jumps at the very least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy 2498 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 came across this while briefly testing the standard android app on my shield combined with a harmony remote and hub. the app was completely unusable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37118 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Yes I'll take another look at this soon. Thanks guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37118 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 @anhil Can you please let me know if this is resolved in the latest version? https://emby.media/emby-for-android.html Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1259 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Finally! No more unwanted keypress multiplication here. One little exception: keyboard "Escape" always reacts with exactly two actions. It doesn't happen with the "Backspace" button, but now also with a keyboard where i never encountered any problem before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I can confirm the same with my TCL 43C725 television: I no longer need to use Button Mapper to avoid multiplication effect. I have not yet tested with my MECOOL KM6 Deluxe, which was the tougher one, since using Button Mapper did not remove the multiplication effect. I will keep you posted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor68 48 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Though this new version has removed the keyboard for CCwGTV remote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
