Is there some script I have to run with OpenELEC to get it to work? I looked through all the remote control opens in OpenELEC but it all seemed to refer mainly to the smartphone apps. Do I have to compile the C++ script you posted and run that from SSH within OpenELEC? I bought the HP MCE receiver mainly based on the fact I have a Harmony One and it would be great for the WAF to use the Harmony to control this (and you seemed to have a swell working system with identical hardware). Sorry I am a total Linux retard Matt.....
Appreciate all the help. PS: I used this OpenELEC Stable - Generic x86_64 Version:4.0.6 2014-06-25 18:56:16 standalone because I no longer have access to the dual boot setup you created. Is the one your script installs a different version? I used the Windows Media Player MCE Harmony codes per the XBMC wiki instructions and I am confident my Harmony is configured correctly. The HP MCE definitely is responding to the signal; it just appears the Chromebox is ignoring it...
OpenELEC 4.x should work out of the box with any MCE receiver/remote - no additional configuration is necessary.
I looked at the XBMC wiki, but couldn't find anything specific to configuring the Harmony, so not sure how you set yours up. But I'd recommend setting it up as a Media Center PC / Microsoft / Media Center Extender. That config + the HP MCE receiver will work OOTB.
