Logitech Harmony

mac321

Hello everyone,
does somebody have a remote.conf for the Logitech Harmony?

My goal is to have pause, play and stop directly on the remote, so that I do not need to press 'OK' and then select pause/play or stop.

Or is there a guide to create my own remote.conf?

MickSeymour

I asked a similar question in January here. The response implied it might be possible but never got anywhere.

I still want it.

NedScott

Oops, that was me

Sorry, it was actually at the end of January that I left working at WeTek, and I had totally forgotten about this in the meantime. IIRC, the easiest way would be to copy a remote config file from a Play 2, which has a full Logitech Harmony profile with play/pause/ff/rw/etc. That way the Hub will respond to that same profile.

At the moment I'm away from my WeTek hardware, but tomorrow I'll look into it.

MickSeymour

Great news. Thank you.

NedScott

Just to let you know, I haven't forgotten about this. Just been very busy

MickSeymour

Thanks.

Hey Guys :-)
I copied the remote.conf from the Play2 into my storage/.config folder.

I dont know, if this was necessarry...
but right now i mentioned that my MCE-Profile (Microsoft Media Center Extender) from my old enviroment works pretty well.


This is the config from the Play2 from etc/amremote

bboy

thanks for the "remote.conf"
but I don't know how to use with a Wetek Hub
like mac321 I want to use directly the play, pause,stop... on my Harmoy

An idea? Thanks

mac321

You can copy this remote.conf to your storage config folder, and on your harmony use the MCE Profile.

This was all I did

MickSeymour

I finally had some time to play with this. I'm using raybuntu's Raybuntu LibreELEC Krypton/Leia/Agile Hub 64bit kernel, 32bit libs.

Here's what I did with the above.

Copy the remote.conf into /storage/.config/remote.conf (which did not already exist)

Reboot

On my Harmony 900, add the MCE Keyboard device and add the device to the Wetek Hub activity.

On the WeTek Hub activity, choose Customize Buttons, select Hard Buttons and set the transport controls as follows:
<< MCE Keyboard Rewind
|<< MCE Keyboard SkipBack
O (record) MCE Keyboard Record
> MCE Keyboard Play
|| MCE Keyboard Pause
>> MCE Keyboard FastForward
>>| MCE Keyboard SkipForward
[] (stop) MCE Keyboard Stop

It works a treat.

bboy

ok, it's perfect
I have pause, play, skipback, stop ... directly on the remote

Thanks mac321 and MickSeymour

MickSeymour

Excellent.

SilverBlade

I just can't get this to work.

I got every button to work the way I want, except the stop button.

MickSeymour

Have you checked the Harmony hub activity hard buttons to make sure Stop is assigned to MCE Keyboard Stop?

SilverBlade

I got everything working now.

johnlrose1979

can you post your working config file? I can only get the arrow keys to work not sure what i'm doing wrong.

johnlrose1979

@johnlrose1979 nevermind, had to setup as mce computer not keyboard and all is well.

feday

What's the easiest way to get to the /storage on the internal memory? There is no ssh,ftp or anything afaik

feday

Or actually more usefully, the .storage is from libreelec afaik. Is there any way to use a remote.conf or something like it with the kodi from WeOS?
