[MAC] Harmony remote - please help
#1
Hi,

As the harmony is popular around XBMC i thought it a good idea to ask for help around here.

I'm having trouble getting the remote (harmony 300) to work at all.
I recall a thread mentioning that "Plex plexapp" preset was borked so I followed advice setting up as MCE remote.
Where left press on the remote = leftkey press
Ok on the remote = select

Could someone check I have done the correct steps

Mac side
Disable ir remote control receiver is not checked and the computer isn't paired to a remote

XBMC side
Input devices:
Apple remote: Multi remote (harmony)
And remote control send keyboard presses
All other boxes aren't ticked.


Have I done anything wrong?
I'm really frustrated and would appreciate any suggestions for example is there anything I can do to check it is working on the computer and prob is with XBMC (unlikely)

Many thanks in advance

Ok, adding AppleTV as device gets it to work in a limited way.

What device should I set up to get the best control of XBMC?

Cheers


EDIT: Nevermind.
Turns out meant to add PLex manufacturer and Plex Player as the model
not Plex and Plexapp

I tried following that guide (i just misread plex player for plex app). Though it is quite outdated (in xbmc version - no need for any installs and the harmony app is online now not downloaded)

But thanks guys I have it working fine now.

Cheers!
