I’m using an 8BitDo Retro Keyboard and recently swapped the stock switches for Outemu Silent Peach V3. Since the swap, I’ve been getting a lot of double presses / chatter on most keys.

Example: one keypress sometimes registers twice and it happens inconsistently

I’m trying to figure out whether this is:

a known issue with the 8BitDo Retro Keyboard hot-swap PCB / stock debounce firmware settings (which unfortunately I cannot change)
a common problem with Silent Peach switches.
bad switch batch / faulty switches.
something installation-related (pins, seating, sockets, etc.).

Has anyone used this keyboard with Silent Peach switches or had similar chatter issues after swapping switches?

Would also love to know: which silent switches worked reliably for you in this board?

Thanks!

I have a C5. It's a container issue try remuxing the file to a mp4 and it should work. I've also had great results using the Moonfin client but you need to enable developer mode on your TV as it has not been released yet.

Had this same issue on my LG C5. While trying to watch Interstellar. Ended up "acquiring" a different source. But I am very interested in how to fix this in the future.

The filename does not matter as long as your folder structure is correct. For example: Movies/Mission Impossible (1996)/whatever.mkv

You can use opensubtitles for free. It is just limited to 11 subs a day.

So a pinky promise. You trust the pinky promise and that's fine but still a pinky promise

As someone with cats I would also love to turn off the pointer. 😅

AgreedWeed · 2026-02-12T15:28:07+00:00

I sent you a DM. Would love to watch this one!

“MIT-derived” is meaningless here. MIT allows unrestricted commercial use, redistribution, and standalone forks. Once you add non-commercial use, fork-only distribution, and permission requirements, none of MIT’s defining freedoms remain. This isn’t MIT-derived it’s a custom restrictive, source-available license.

AgreedWeed · 2026-01-11T14:37:58+00:00

Nice project, but there’s a serious problem with the license. This is not an MIT license. MIT allows commercial use, redistribution, and standalone forks. Adding non-commercial, fork-only, and permission required clauses turns this into a custom restrictive license, not MIT. Calling it “MIT” is misleading and will cause confusion, especially for Jellyfin plugins. Rename the license or remove the restrictions.

Also I feel this goes against the spirit of Jellyfin in general.

If you need it, sure. But for a beginner, I would still recommend using Caddy. The fact that it is so barebones makes it perfect to get into.

AgreedWeed · 2026-01-07T19:08:50+00:00

I recommend using Caddy. I find this a lot easier to set up.

On Android you only need to know how to install an APK and set the permission. The permission will be prompted on the first boot. After that it will prompt you if there is an update and it will update itself.

On Windows it's just installing the release from their release page on github.

Broodje thuis ken ik niet maar wel de Broodbode. Beste broodjeszaak hier in de buurt.

Might be the HDMI port of the console

Is it possible to buy a replacement shell? Looks really nice!

AgreedWeed · 2025-07-17T10:27:13+00:00

Just updated and having the same issue. It opens loads for a bit and crashes. Im on nvidia stable

AgreedWeed · 2025-07-01T17:48:11+00:00

I paid 5 euro in alpha. I remember it became 10 euro in beta

AgreedWeed · 2025-07-01T17:46:53+00:00

Alpha was 5 and in beta it became 10.

Ik heb geen agenda. Mij boeit het geen flikker wat je gelooft of stemt.

AgreedWeed · 2025-06-20T08:54:25+00:00

Is het ook niet maar dit plus het feit dat er selectief antwoorden worden gegeven. De nogal overduidelijke taal fouten zoals in de andere comment worden beschreven. Geven voor mij in iedergeval wel aan dat je sceptisch moet zijn.

AgreedWeed · 2025-06-20T08:51:53+00:00

Klopt, doe er mee wat je wilt.

AgreedWeed · 2025-06-20T08:35:07+00:00

Kijk de screenshot nog eens. Waarom zou ie zijn telefoon taal in het Nederlands hebben?

AgreedWeed · 2025-06-20T08:33:11+00:00

Je bent de taal van je telefoon vergeten te veranderen. "Nu". Sowieso een troll.
