6. REDUCING LAG & IMPROVING RESPONSIVENESS

With any Harmony remote, some degree of input lag will be experienced while navigating the Kodi interface. This slight delay is normal. However, this lag can be minimized by adjusting two settings for each Kodi device.

Setting 1 – Adjust Delay (Speed) Settings

MyHarmony:

Devices --> MCE Keyboard --> Change Device Settings --> Device delay settings

Devices --> Windows Media Center SE --> Change Device Settings --> Device delay settings

Legacy Software:

Devices --> MCE Keyboard --> Settings --> Adjust the delays (speed settings)

Devices --> Windows Media Center SE --> Settings --> Adjust the delays (speed settings)

Recommended Delays:

Inter-key Delay: 0 ms
Input Delay: 300-500 ms
Inter-Device Delay: 500 ms

Setting 2 – Troubleshooting

MyHarmony:

Devices --> MCE Keyboard --> Change Device Settings --> Device command repeats
MCE Keyboard responds to some commands either too many times or only occasionally.

Number of repeats: 1

Devices --> MCE Keyboard --> Change Device Settings --> Device command repeats
MCE Keyboard responds to some commands either too many times or only occasionally.

Number of repeats: 1

Legacy Software:

Devices --> MCE Keyboard --> Troubleshooting -->
MCE Keyboard responds to some commands either too many times or only occasionally.

Number of retries: 1

Devices --> Windows Media Center SE --> Troubleshooting -->
Windows Media Center SE responds to some commands either too many times or only occasionally.

Number of retries: 1

If anyone can improve the technical accuracy of this section, it would be welcome. At this point, it is more an art than a science. I have gotten the best results with the settings posted. I'm not really sure about the Input Delay, as I've used anywhere from 300 to 1000 ms.
