[QUOTE="xayd, post: 654135, member: 106812"] it can but it won't work well. i have attempted for several weeks to use a logitech harmony programmed as an MCE remote with the imon software, but you can basically forget about it ever being a seamless solution. the inherent flaw is that the imon software has hard coded buttons that cannot be changed (exit linked to backspace, for instance) and thus with the imon software you can't have mediaportal seamlessly open and close things that require external players (such as netflix, blu ray players, media player classic, etc.) if you abandon the imon software in favor of another software that can work with the imon hardware, that presents a whole other set of problems with the alternative software not fully working with the imon hardware because soundgraph, despite promises to the contrary, refuses to provide an API to any third party developer. the result of that is buttons that likely don't work at all (in my case with IRSS it was the playback control buttons that didn't work). if you at all value your time, ditch the soundgraph receiver and get an MCE compliant replacement. with an MCE compliant receiver everything 'just works' in about 5 minutes of driver installation and initial setup. if you have one of the drive bay integrated soundgraph receivers, there are 3.5" universal card readers that have MCE compliant receivers in them for about 20-25 dollars, i posted another thread with a link to one.
