Magic Remote: Works Without Receiver...
#1
So I have been using Pi with Kodi and the Estuary Mod v2 skin, together with a FLIRC USB remote receiver, and then a Harmony Elite Remote.

Due to a new TV (LG OLED48A26LA) which has 4k, and the skin being taken up again and developed, I did a complete re-install.

I removed the FLIRC receiver, and have not yet set up the remote at all.  Yet, the remote for the LG TV is controlling the Kodi interface...
With no IR receiver on the Pi, how is that even possible?

Confused and Dave....

It's a rather limited method, but it does the basics...
