IR Blaster controlling Sky+HD box

[chrgray]

KD-65X8509C bought within the last week

I have the TV's IR Blaster setup to control a BSkyB Sky+HD box, and most controls work great.  However, the UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT navigation buttons work, but always sends 3 occurrences of UP, DOWN, LEFT, or RIGHT instead of just one occurrence.

So, for example, when navigating the Sky+HD box list of recordings, pressing down skips down 3 recordings, making it impossible to select the recordings in-between.

Is there some way to update the IR blaster database to correctly only send 1 occurrence of LEFT, RIGHT, UP, or DOWN when that button is pressed?  Or is there any other solution to this problem, that will make the UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT buttons behave correctly?

Thank you for the reply, unfortunately I still have the problem with the version of firnware PKG3.315.0102EUA that you refer to,  On checking for updates I am told that the TV is up to date!

If anyone else that normally has this problem, can you please confirm if the latest FW has fixed this issue or not?  As from my information, this should have been resolved....

Thanks

Have just checked on the TV - no updates are available (the TV is up to date) and the TV still at 3.315. 

Has there been any information from Sony on this issue?

I also still had this problem after it was supposed to have been fixed in the March update. A factory reset finally resolved the issue.
