Hi,
Does anybody fixed lagging problem with harmony remotes?
I'm using Libreelec, (I think it doesn't matter because the same behavior was with Ubuntu+Kodi) and Harmony 350 with CEC. I've tried to lower delay values in harmony software and didn't help. In comparison to standard Samsung remote it's slow like a turtle... Anyone has similar feelings or solution?

I use a Harmony 650 with a FLIRC reciever and don't notice any lags. Is there anything more you can share about your setup that might help us see where the issue might be?

From harmony soft:
- inter-key and inter-device delay is set to 0
I'm using Pulse-Eight USB - CEC Adapter for Libreelec on Zotac machine.

Has the setup always been laggy for you? If you have a few dollars (OK, like $25 I think), it might be worth trying a FLIRC. There is a Harmony entry for it, and the FLIRC converts the remote presses to keyboard presses in hardware, so there is no software you have to run to use it (you do need a Windows or Mac if you want to change any of the mappings).
Or a different USB adapter. Or maybe try repositioning the IR reciever. I had a setup once that had horrid lag until I moved the reciever so that it was very, very line of sight.

Lags are from the beginning. It uses connectivity through TV using CEC, so receiver has good visibility. It's strange, because with Samsung TV remote with CEC module it works great. I think, it must be something with harmony.

Using bluetooth with the Hub based Harmony remotes has no lag.

No. for harmony I use only CEC for that. Configuration I mean harmony delays. It upsets me, because my old RF remote and samsung TV remote on CEC configuration work fluently with Kodi but I want to have one remote, also for ampli. So, probably I back to work with two remotes.

You're talking about IR receiver ?
