</div>Attached the lircd.conf file that I created using irrecord.<br><br></blockquote><br></div></div><div>Thanks Jelte. Do you know how to get lirc configured to work with this lircd.conf? I'm running MythBuntu and as per my other email, I'm finding that even after crreating the lircd.conf file there are still problems getting lirc to work with it. I think I must be misconfiguring /etc/lirc/hardware.conf but I don't know exactly what the problem is. <br>
</div></div>
</blockquote></div><br></div>Jelte, I have actually got irw responding to the remote configured as a MCE-1039 which is great. The thing is, it's not using the lircd.conf you gave me. I know because I've commented out the REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF line in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf and yet irw still responds.<br>
<br>I have come across posts talking about some remotes sending keyboard signals and lirc therefore not being required. I'm well out of my depths and thrashing in the deep and dirty waters of lirc now so amd guessing and probably talking nonsense. But I have found that there is a key which shows up as KEY_ENTER in irw on my remote. If I shut down lirc and press this key, I get a carriage return in a terminal window, so I think the remote is sending keyboard signals here.<br>
<br>Anyway, for anybody who needs to set up their Harmony 600 remote, I got mine working by:<br><br>- Entering PVR --> Microsoft --> MCE-1039 profile in the Logitech software.<div class="im"><br>- Using Mythbuntu Control Centre and choosing "Windows Media Center Transceivers/Remotes (All)" under "Enable a Remote Control".<br>
</div>
- As far as I can tell it doesn't matter what's in REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf. Here's my hardware.conf:<div class="im"><br><br># /etc/lirc/hardware.conf<br>#<br>#Chosen Remote Control<br></div>

I'm not sure your lircd.conf actually did anything but configuring the Harmony 600 as a MCE-1039 was certainly a massive help. Thanks very much!<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>Hi Phill, would you be so kind and attach your lircrc file here once you get working setup? Or even better if the file is different from the one at <a href="http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Logitech_Harmony_Generic_Setup#Setup_MythTV_.2F_Xine_.2F_MPlayer_to_recognize_LIRC_.2F_remote_commands">http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Logitech_Harmony_Generic_Setup#Setup_MythTV_.2F_Xine_.2F_MPlayer_to_recognize_LIRC_.2F_remote_commands</a> maybe updating the wiki with the relevant information?<br>
<br>I got my Harmony 600 working 6 months ago using the same MCE profile (sorry I couldn't be of some help I just saw this thread) and got some buttons working by training the remote using my old Leadtek remote.<br><br>
For the extra buttons, you need to set the function in the Logitech app first. Lets say you set the button Green to GREEN. Then using irrecord you need to find the hex code the remote is sending when you press the green button and map that in your "mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb" file. If you open that file you'll figure out what you need to do. Adding a line like:<br>
<br>0x00044f GREEN<br><br>should do the trick (replace the gibberish 0x00044f with the real hex code you get in irrecord)<br><br>FInally you need to map that function in MythTV, by creating a button in lircrc file as per the examples given in the mythtv wiki. For example:<br>
<pre>begin
prog = mythtv
button = VolumeUp
repeat = 4
config = GREEN
end</pre><br>Of course you would like to map GREEN to do something else than VolumeUp but that is the idea in general.<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
