[QUOTE="stevie_j_b, post: 380550, member: 88172"] What I believe Purg did was simply create a Program-specific set of commands within iMon for Notepad, setting all the keys on the Harmony to single keystrokes, as opposed to the Ctrl+Shift+H type we use in MediaPortal. Then, he opened Notepad, and started pressing them in many different combinations. Theoretically, if the Harmony causes this looping while using specific button presses (and to me, like others, this is Enter + Prev), Notepad would show exactly what is happening. Purg then called the Harmony chaps, giving them this information, and they amended the problematic buttons to react in a different way. My feeling is the command-sending method Logitech applied to buttons 1-9 is different to the Select/Prev ones. Actually, thinking along these lines, there is an extremely simple fault-finding method we can use... forget the logical layout of the Harmony, and instead go into iMon, then onto the Program settings for MediaPortal, and whereas you'll probably have something like 'Select = [RM200] Enter', change it to [RM200] 1 or something similar. Do the same with the Escape command, setting this to [RM200] 2. Now, we'll be using the direction keys to move the cursor, but buttons 1 and 2 to go in and out of menus. Then test to see if you can break it. If you can't, we've determined that the Select and Prev keys on the Harmony are different to the number pad ones, and THIS is what needs changing. We need commonality across the entire of the keypad, as there is no reason why they should react in differing ways... theoretically :) Oh, and I also read that the Silverstone LC-16M commands were decent, although I tried the LC-20M and they failed miserably.
