I have cloned a lot of buttons on different remotes with succes. The new cloning feature works really well.

The problem arises when you need to long press a button for something like volume control. The flow card does not have an option to include how long the button should be pushed.

Anyone have a solution for this? 🙂

Clone the longpress signal as separate ‘button’? Isn’t that possible?

Assuming it is a different signal compared to a short press signal.

I dont think so as the cloning procedure stops waiting for a press after it registers the button.

Could it be that a long press on the volume just sends the same “volume up” signal many times in a row until the button is released?
