Hopefully someone can answer this for me...
My previous setup included a Windows server running XBMC with the MCE receiver and remote. I was able to program my Harmony remote to communicate to the MCE receiver by simply choosing MCE as the device type. The big bonus was it allowed me to program actual keyboard shortcuts to the various buttons.
I am now running XBMC on my Mac Mini. I'm looking for the same functionality that was once available under Windows. I've tried choose MCE as the device type but it will not recognize the commands. I've tried setting it to Plex and that works, but it limits the button options to standard commands like play, pause, skip, ect.
To recap and I want to use my Harmony 900 to send keyboard commands to my Mac Mini. Simple things like \ (backslash) so I can switch to windowed mode at any given time.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks everyone =)
