<p>Heh. Harmony 600 (+650) are totally programmable* and can send almost any codes you can manage to get into the system.<br>
<br>
That is the biggest problem with such remotes - they depend on users uploading (learned) codes to the website for others to use.<br>
<br>
So far I haven't found any option which allows me to use alpha keyboard codes, which IMHO would be the best selection to use with mythtv.<br>
<br>
They allow you to control up to five different devices and can manage the switching between them, termed "activities".<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

But anyway, what I do know is that I'm using activities that I defined with the Logitech software. And there are buttons on the remote such as "Watch TV" and "Watch A Movie". I have "Watch A Movie" set to go to HDMI input, set the remote to send IR signals for MythTV and control volume with TV.</div>
