So can this logic be applied to any code.

If you understand it, it can.

How
do you take the average code and cause it to repeat
when held?

The average code, including the sample in this thread automatically repeats when held, when it is learned correctly. The edits I described in this thread were to make it repeat a certain number of times when NOT held.

I've got a Media Center PC that has
had the debouncing feature checked.

I'm don't know which way "checked" means. Does that mean the PC accepts the same code twice in a row? Or does it mean the PC requires either correct toggle bit behavior or a do_nothing command?

I can get
multiple presses of the same button but can not
get it it to repeat if held down.

A correct learn of an MCE command would repeat while held. Most ways of adding a do nothing command (to cover up the toggle command) would break the repeat while held.

Does repeat while held work on the original MCE remote?

I'm not sure, but I think the MCE must be ignoring the toggle issue for any keys where repeat while held is supposed to work and only applying it to keys, such as digits and the power key, where repeat while held isn't supposed to work. So maybe the answer is to use ordinary signals for keys that support repeat while held and use some kludge to solve the toggle bit problem only for keys that don't support repeat while held.

It's also possible to kludge around the toggle problem without breaking repeat while held. But that's rather tricky and shouldn't be tried until you know it's required.

I'd need a lot more details on what you're doing and for which keys to give more specific help.
