If you really want to use this profile you need to map remote button to actual keyboard keys using Flirc software. You can't just use MCE keyboard profile in Harmony. To use any of the built-in profiles you just need to configure your Harmony remote to use one of the Flirc profiles in Harmony software. These profiles use IR codes that are not used by any other device (they are created for Flirc specifically). I don't know exactly how many built-in profiles Flirc now has because I don't follow this topic closely. There's no option to selectively enable or disable a single built-in profile.

The only thing user can change regarding to built-in profiles in the Flirc is to disable or enable them as a whole. The name for the hardcoded mappings is built-in profiles. It has some predefined mappings hardcoded in its firmware but it also allows the user to record new mappings. Yes I can clearly see that you are confused :).įlirc basically maps IR codes to keyboard key presses. I don't think Jason can do anything about that but there probably could be a warning on the website and/or forum that such issue exists. Just record it in Flirc yourself.Īlso the issue with built-in profiles is that they won't work properly with keyboard layouts that are not compatible with US QWERTY because some symbols are in different places on the keyboard (I've described it on the forum and in more details in my private message to you). You don't need to resign from Flirc/Kodi profile in Harmony. IMO when that happens it's best to just disable built-in profiles at all and map remote yourself to what you want and need. You just plug it in and basic functionality just works. What I think about built-in profiles is that they are nice for a quick start. Also I like to have more control over remote to keyboard mappings and also I'm using modified keyboard.xml file in the OSMC/Kodi where I've mapped some functions that are not there by default (for example there's no keyboard shortcut for subtitle search window in Kodi). VIdeonisse I don't have Harmony so I'm not missing anything :). Personally I'm not a fan of built-in profiles so I have them disabled (there's such option in the Flirc GUI to disable them). For the built-in profiles to work you actually need to select Flirc/* profiles in Harmony. It means that there are a few Harmony profiles for Flirc/ pairs (like Flirc/Kodi for example).

If you know the key combinations yourself then you can just use full keyboard controller and record all the keys you want there.įlirc has built-in profiles for Harmony. Under the hood it's still just a key combination (for example a Stop key in Kodi controller in GUI is just mapped as X key). A controller is just a pre-configured page in the Flirc GUI containing key combinations under familiar looking keys (like play, stop etc buttons).

Regarding controllers, there's no such thing in the Flirc itself.

Then just connect Flirc to PC (or Mac), install Flirc software and use Flirc GUI to map remote buttons to the extra keys you need (for example using a keyboard controller in the GUI).

If you want extra keys then add them from some standard device profile like some new LG or Samsung TV (depending on which you don't have so they won't collide with each other). MCE remotes are using not very user friendly protocol - it can work but requires extra work.
