Thanks a lot!

It does not seem to work, but I don't have anything else to test and am not
at all sure that my setup works (raspberry pi with an IR led that came with
my arduino kit). Right now when I put one of the keys on repeat the only
effect is that it seems to drown the actual remote's signal which stops
working unless I hide the led.

Do you think my setup could be the cause?

I'm planning on building this thing soon
http://www.harctoolbox.org/arduino_nano.html which I will have more
confidence in for testing and decoding remotes using IrScrutinize.

Thanks again, will add the config to the library if I can confirm that it
works.
