Sorry. Didn't realise the RGB's would be an issue.
Well I would assume then if I am pretty much constantly updating the state/program of some RGB leds, then I cannot successfully decode an IR signal.
Is that because they may share an interrupt, or that they are clashing over who has priority.
In which case, is it possible to assign an interrupt to have priority?
If it's not possible, then either the LEDS or the IR needs shipping off to it's own processor.
Probably easier to just buy/make a separate IR receiver circuit.
Hmm
