When you're in myharmony.com go into the flirc device (i.e. panasonic) then go to the volume buttons. If you click on them you should be able to tell the harmony to use the "TV" profile when the volume buttons are pressed but when any other button is pressed then it will continue using the flirc profile.
Thanks for helping me Chris, erm this one I can see in my activity that i use, Samsung TV has Direction Up assigned to the up arrow
Only thing is, how on earth do i remove it :P?
You could try and map a remote button to Apple key+tab (this would scroll through the apps that are open)Or if XBMC isn't open assign a keyboard combination to start xbmc control+apple key+X (for example)
If i set a key combination to start XBMC, im guessing this would work if it was already open as it would bring it to the front?
Another thing on this one is how do assign a keyboard combination? haha :) Sorry to be a pain!

Well i have finally got my Flirc today.
Might is say first off, Jason & Chris have been excellent and helped me out a lot with obtaining one!
Anyway, onto the issue!
Basically i have a Harmony One PLus remote to control everything
I have the Flirc added as the recommended Panasonic TV profile and this work, BUT only when i go into Devices and then the correct profile on the Harmony remote.
If i just go from the 'Current Activity' menu it sends the command to my Main TV which causes it to bring up errors.
Is there a way to prioritise which device a command goes to?
For example in this one i want every command to go to Flirc and the only ones not to is the volume.
Another issue (Which i may just have to deal with) But i will only ever be using Flirc to control XBMC and as you can imagine when i want to use the remote, i have to first select XBMC as the program on my Mac, only then will the buttons work.
Is there a way to force it to send the commands to XBMC even if it isn't the App that you are presently controlling?
I probably haven't made sense in this but if you can help in anyway i would very much appreciate it!
Thanks,
Steven
Setup and nearly working! Harmony + XBMC
in How To
Posted
Managed to setup the Apple +Tab button but it only really works if it was the last app open so i only have to press it once
If it is say 5th its quite hard to select as i can't see the computer screen from where i sit
Any ideas on where to find a guide for mapping a key to opening a program? :/
