Harmony sends different signals with same button!?

Hi ppl!
I need your help

I have this hardware:
- Logitech Harmony 555 programed as Microsoft Remote Control model:1039
- Igor Cesko's IR-USB dongle builded by this scheme on his page http://www.cesko.host.sk/IgorPlugUSB/Ig ... R)_eng.htm

Problems goes like this:
I'm using Girder 5 beta. In plugins i have loaded an IgorUSB plugin, downloaded from his website. I've left setup of that plugin on "default"
Then I go in Girder to "add remote" option, and on press on any of my Harmony's buttons, setup goes to map the keys (so far so good)
BUT, then a problem: while on mapping, any pressed key on remote sends a whole bunch of signal so 3 or more buttons are mapped by one click!

It looks something like this:
If i press button "Play" it sends a burst of commands, like "signal_1, signal_3, signal_x, signal_y", always more that one command per click
Then, like if I press a button "ok" it sends "signal_4, signal_x, signal_5, signal_6"

As you can see, a remote sends a same command on two different buttons (a signal_x).

My questions are
1. how to restrict remote to send only one sort of signal/command per key press?
2. how to restrict remote to send only one signal/command per key press?

a desired result would be:
If i press button "Play" it sends a command like "signal_x, stop"
Then, like if I press a button "ok" it sends "signal_4, stop"
Different single command per keypress...

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
do you have an original MS 1039 remote control to compare?

Perhaps it is simply the original remote which behaves like this and the harmony simply does the same. I once had a Nokia TV and this TV also used a remote system with more than one command for each key.

You can try to program your harmony as let´s say a philips TV or VCR and watch what happens.
