where to start. I thought I’d check with the experts here before digging much further.<br>

</span>Chuck your IR remote and receiver and go get a ~$15 (or less) USB<br>
Bluetooth dongle. Then configure your Harmony Hub to use BT instead<br>
of IR. You'll get a *much* more reliable and faster remote.<br>

That sound like an improvement. However, what about the BT on the FE? My frontend for this computer is an Intel NUC Core i-3 and has Wifi/BT built in. Could that be setup to talk to Harmony and mythtv-frontend?<br>
