Help for Harmony remote to Antec display (2 Viewers)

[lodale]

Hi, I have a Logitech Harmony 525 remote loaded to MCE remote. I am running WinXP SP3 with a Antec Fusion v2 minidisplay and MP 1.1.0 final. I've got the display to work (running the minidisplay plugin). The remote is also working, but only as a mouse.
I've read several post in forums about IRSS and Imon, but I cannot get my setup to work properly. Been working many hours with this problem but not getting far

logs, logs and again logs with a step-by-step description of issues with IRSS would help to shed some light.

Sorry Chemelli
I did not think that this was an issue for logs, I'd rather think that this issue was related to setup issues. Like how to get my Harmony to work as a MCE (not only mouse)remote when using minidisplay.

Re : Help for Harmony remote to Antec display

Hello,

Sorry but I don't write very well in english langage (I'm living in Belgium and I speak french)

I'm problem too with harmony remote 555, antec fusion, imon, and Mediaportal 1.10 final : same configuration.
I've used Mediapotal 0.9xxx during 2 years without problem : Harmony + imon + Mediaportal 0.xxx works perfectly

I've installed new 1.10 version and remote now doesn't work correctly :

If I use Mediaportal alone and if I press (i.e.) : Pause : I see on display : Mediaportal / Pause -> all is OK
If I use PowerDVD alone and I press pause : I see : PowerDVD / Pause -> all is OK
If I use WinAmp : Winamp/Pause -> all is OK
If I use Winamp And PowerDVD is same time : All is OK -> Display shows "PowerDVD" if POwerDVD is focused and WinAmp if Winamp is focused.

BUT if I use Mediaportal + WinAmp or MediaPortal + PowerDVD (external player for blu-ray), remote doesn't work :

PowerDVD is focused (keyboard works correctly, space = pause on PowerDVD), but if I press touch on remote, displays shows "MediaPortal/touch" and not "PowerDVD/touch", Action is captured by mediaportal AND MediaPortal capture focus : after remote action on PowerDVD, remote and keybord send commands to Mediaportal (behind PowerDVD) and nothing works.

With Old Mediaportal versions, all was ok, I used my harmony correctly : with new version, I must use keybord, BUT my mediacenter is used by my wife, and my wife want use remote to see video, not keybord (I must accept W.A.F. or bye-bye mediacenter and Mediaportal, LOL).

Have you an idea or a soluce to use my remote, or must I reinstall old Mediaportal version?

Thank you very much to advance

Claude

I have just finished (almost anyway) setting up Media portal to work with a harmony 655 (configured as MCE remote) via Imon on Antek fusion case.

I have not used any aditional plugins, other than Shortcuter to give access to some aditional screens.

If you are still looking for help, I will be happy to send my settings for Harmony, Imon and Mediaportal if it will help.

Regards

Yes I'm very interested. Can you send a PM with your setup?

I have had a few requests on how I set up Harmony H655 remote, iMON and media portal.

I made a quick document and it can be found at Harmony, iMON, Mediaportal config

Hope it is understandable and helps
