Hi,

I'm on my second HD PVR and I'm using a Harmony 525 to control it. I've got an issue with the inter-key delays it seems. When pushing a button, it sometimes repeats the command (press 3 once, and two is shown for example). I didn't pick up this issue with the first HD PVR, but the replacement one seems to be more sensitive to this issue.

I've messed around with the inter-key and inter-device delays without any improvement. What settings are you guys using for this, or do you not have this problem?

Thanks!
 
I use my Harmony 895 with the HD-PVR.

I had the opposite issue, where the remote response was a bit sluggish.

So I set the inter-key delays to the minimum value and now it works quite well, even though the original remote still works better, which is a bit disappointing.
 
Originally, my Harmony 525 had the same problem on the hd pvr, but recently I deleted the profile I had for the HD pvr and searched for it again. Once I got the newer profile it works perfectly.
 
I had the same problem with my Harmony One. In the Harmony software, check under troubleshooting for the HD PVR device. Theres one of the items called "DSTV HD PVR responds to some commands either too many times or only occasionally." Change it to setting "1".
Problem solved.
