Hello, I have a big problem to whenever I try to hit the again button โ1โ it instead selects โ2โ as if I hit the hard button. I have tried updating Anki, checking all add-ons as well as made sure all my keys are appropriately assigned. Every time I type 1 it instead shows that I hit 2 in the info screen for the card. I donโt know what to do next. has anyone encountered this before?
Have you disabled all add-ons and the issue persists?
Which version of Anki are you running?
Have you double-checked your answer key settings in preferences?
Not sure on that one, honestly. Iโve never used that particular remote, nor that add-on
If itโs bluetooth (as Iโm assuming it is) it should respond to any other of the many programs people use to program keybindings. I would try to give one of those a shot, since this one appears not to be working well atm
Oh wow, I thought they had some kind of partnership with Anki since they have the name. I started having problems with my remote earlier this last week. I reached out to them and they are sending me a replacement. I used it just now as a test and my specific remote glitched out and caused the problem again. I removed the add-on and it fixed the problem again. Iโm thinking the specific remote I am using is doing something to the program and causing the issue. While I wait for the replacement I will just resolve to use keys instead
No, not at all. Itโs a complete copycat thing. Those remotes are also knock-offs, and routinely sell on Alibaba for like $1.70. I would not, in all honesty, recommend using them.
8bitdo is typically the standard recommendation; theyโre well-made, inexpensive, and little workhorses. They also have a range of options, from like $15 up to fancy stuff. Iโve had one or two that have lasted 4+ years without breaking a sweat
If youโre on Mac, 8bitdo remote and JoyKeyMapper to keybind is the way to go, for sure
Wow! I had no idea. thanks for the info!
I will keep JoyKeyMapper in mind. Perhaps I will use that when my replacement gets here. In all honesty I have never had any issue with AnkiRemote until last week. It had also been super reliable, but if the problem persists even with the replacement I now know how to fix it. I will also be going with the 8bitdio should it happen again with the new one.
