Premise custom drivers repeat ir commands at least twice...

[etc6849]

It appears that any custom driver on my system will repeat an ir command at least 2 times, even if I tell it to do so only once? Am I missing a setting somewhere?

This is normally ok, except for a pioneer dvd player I have will respond twice for a command that was supposedly sent once. This is the only device I have that reacts this fast. This also doesn't matter for commands like play, stop etc, but for some transportCommands like pause it does matter. Note that without this on change script found below, the commands are repeated twice even if I set command detail, command count to 1. To use the on change script, I have to delete the IRData for that specific command from the custom driver and hard code it as shown below. I'm also using a GC-100, but I don't think that is the issue since I'm able to hard code a solution that works 100% of the time. You can also visually see that the blinkie's normally emit the signal twice instead of once, but after deploying the script below they only blink once...

I've used the code below to fix this issue temporarily, but I'd like to know if I'm just missing a setting somewhere:

I debugged this a little more today and figured out the answer, finally!

After more study, I realized the issue only occurred when I used the GC100 Multi04 IO1 port. If I used IO2, IO3 and other output IR ports everything would work as normal.

Then I remembered I had done some experiementing with copying IO1 data, and resending it in an extension module about 8 months ago. I had deleted the extension about 8 months ago, but never unloaded and reloaded the GC add-in. I believe not reloading the add-in kept the extra code in place even though the extension was nolonger viewable under modules!?!

The issue was easily fixed once I unchecked the Global Cache add in, then rechecked it :horse:

Any thoughts?
