This is a universal remote but lacks the ability for programming sequences of commands and controlling multiple devices at once. I had a Logitech Harmony remote before, but only the basic model.

And again, chances are I needed to walk back to adjust the volume. Put the laptop aside, walk to the receiver, turn it on, switch to the right channel, walk balk, turn on Google Music on the Chromecast. Groan.Ī similar problem occurred with the Chromecast. After that I often found myself getting back up, walking to the receiver, and adjusting the volume. Then: turn on the TV with its remote, turn on the wireless keyboard and mouse, log in to Windows, then double-click the Netflix shortcut. The problem was, when I wanted to turn on Netflix, I had to walk to the receiver to turn it on, then turn on the PC, then walk to the couch.

A receiver hooked up to the PC with 5.1 surround attached.A Playstation 3, for some console gaming and playing Blu-rays.A television (with no cable TV), attached to the PC.A PC, for watching Netflix, Youtube, and for gaming.So, there’s a number of devices in our living room: It was an adventure, to say the least.įor your pleasure and/or our adventures with technology, let me explain what I did. I’ve recently embarked on remote controlling my setup better. I would be grateful if anyone could post a potential fix for this.I don’t have cable, but instead I have a PC hooked up to my television and receiver. I read a post on another Minix forum section (different product, and I think a different problem), but the fix suggested (configuring the Harmony to believe that the FLIRC was the media box) did not work for me. Has anyone been successful in making a similar configuration work? I tried replacing it with another working FLIRC, and different USB port, but same result. I'm trying to setup the T5 and FLIRC with a Harmony 650 (IR) remote, but the T5 completely ignores the FLIRC. This time, however, it's not working, and I'm at a loss of what I can do about it.

I was pretty sure that the remote was Bluetooth for the T5, but I have always been very successful in the past with non-standard IR or Bluetooth remotes by using a FLIRC USB plugin. The Google Certification and builtin Chromecast convinced me that the T5 would be a better experience. I have a Nvidia Shield in the family room, but didn't want to shell out quite so much for the bedroom. I've had a Google TV dongle that worked better.

I'm replacing a bedroom device, and chose the T5 after I tried one of the many other Android 9 boxes, that turned out to be garbage. Just received my first Minix device (NEO T5), and ran into my first problem. has anyone achieved control using the FLIRC and a Harmony remote setting for the T5. Has anyone found a Harmony product-ID, that will work with the T5? Harmony only suggests a Minix X5 product, which doesn't work. So that revelation means that my question is different, and hopefully has a simpler answer. It would appear, contrary to my initial belief's, that the NEO T5 remote is IR, not bluetooth.
