Basic info first:
Windows 10
IR: HP OVU400102/71
Kodi 17.0
Remote: Harmony One
Problem: Any command that includes something "standard" like t, m, i or win-button takes forever to react. When using play/pause/stop/arrows and the lot, there is absolutely no delay. I have toyed with all delay settings, just to find that if I put any of them above 0ms it just takes even longer.
My solution so far is to hold down the button for example for "m" for up to 15 seconds until the menu finally shows up.
The problem exist outside of Kodi, tested in notepad, it reacts just as slowly - it must be a Windows/Harmony problem.
Microsoft eHome MCIR 109
Microsoft eHome MCIR
Microsoft eHome Remote control (loosely translated from Danish)
If the remote control, controls the left, right, ok, stop, play etc. - I just need to find out why the others are not working as fast.
I am not sure what the exact difference is between the 3 installed eHome devices are, but I think there could be a problem with one of the drivers.
Has anyone else experienced a problem like this?
Update 2017.03.16
Got hold of a new IR blaster: Microsoft 1040 - it works perfectly.
Seems the HP OVU400102/71 is showing its odd behaviour here.

Hi
I wonder what remote to buy for in the easiest way make it to work?
I have read in the forum and it look like the remote business is very complicated to make work. I do not understand much of it so that is why I ask this question.
Best Regards
Captor
PS. By no I have this Imon and after installing the new Kodi 17.1 it is not working anymore. I was thinking that it maybe is more easy to buy a new one if there is something less complicated out there.
I have the latest windows 10 pro
Thanks

Hi Warner
Thank you very much. I will definetly look into that. Is that a non ehome device?
Do I have to think about something special or can I only just install it?
In the meantime my imon started to work again. But I am tired of it. I can not sit to far away with this remote from the PC. So I will buy something else anyway. It is time:-)

hey,
I am trying to control kodi on a raspberry pi 3 with a harmony 900 and an HP 5187-4593 receiver
the only thing that i cant seem to get to work is the backspace and ESC keys which means any time im in a menu i cant get out of it but USB keyboard connected works just fine
I have read that the MCE keyboard is sending 'MCE backspace' instead of a keyboard backspace though i found that in a very old post and am not sure if that still is an issue or not. I am using the Logitech Harmony Remote Software 7.7.1 and when editing the MCE keyboard all I see is button Backspace is mapped to command Backspace, nothing specifies MCE or not
I have tried to do some searching but haven't found much info that I understood
anybody that can point me in the right direction?
thanks
