Now that I am using my receiver for more than just playing CDs (see other
email about the new dishplayer if you're at all curious as to why...), I am
noticing that 1 of every 50 remote control keypresses on my universal remote
(usually having nothing to do with slinke or cdj) accidentally sets off an
incorrect CDJ automation command.
 
I'm thinking that the slinke might be accidentally capturing command
fragments and interpreting them wrong.  Since I always have the PC running
CDJ turned with CDJ booted, this can be a bit annoying.  I have lots of IR
commands mapped to a routine that loads up a playlist and starts playing it.
So the results are usually that I'm watching TV and all of a sudden CDJ
kicks in.  The receiver automatically switches the audio source to CD and
I'm listening to Pink Floyd.
 
Any ideas of parameters I can tweak to minimize this?
 
thanks,
