I have several ELMA E37 encoders I would like to use that I got here:

http://www.leobodnar.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=98_75&products_id=196

They work with mobiflight, except they have to be moved 2 steps to get mobiflight to register the change. I believe this is because they are 2 PPD encoders not 1 PPD. This seems like it would be a simple change in the software to support these correctly. Is this something that is planned? This is the only issue I seem to have with mobflight, everything else is working great.

Hi cgifford,

some time ago I talked about it with Sebastian. At that time, he was still busy developing the LCD display.

The release with the LCD is now out, I assume that Sebastian takes the encoder, if his time allows it.

You're not alone with your problem. I also have encoder that need for an impulse 2 Detents. It is just synonymous to include not only the 1: 2 Encoder, it should be included all 1: n encoder.
When that will be, I can not tell you. So stay tuned

Grüße,
