[QUOTE="dcwp, post: 391267, member: 25562"] As I understand it, the MCE IR receiver is a universal receiver, so it should be able to handle your harmony. I only use the MCE remote so I could be wrong, but I think the remote setup you're talking about is common around here. As for working with XP Pro, I don't think you'll have to do much Lirc work. I use XP Pro with my remote and I have never used Lirc. It will natively support basic media functions. If you want to map buttons to launch applications or do special tasks, then you'll need a third party program. Again, I won't be much help on that since I have set up my HTPC so that pretty much everything I could want to do can be handled from within MediaPortal and MP has complete MCE remote support. Hulu is the major exception on this front though. [/QUOTE]
