most of the time i have to point remote in opposite direction to make it write 1 if i press 1

BUT for my surprise when i run inputlirc

7 0 KEY_6 event5

inputlirc reads and recognize all codes even if i point remote in any direction...

then i stoped inputlirc and restarted lirc...
and now it reads all remote codes:

I think that there is something wrong with lircd
or my remote is for trash or whatever
