Hey guys,
I am using MrMc on apple tv with my logitech harmony ultimate and it works fine.
However, functionality is very limited. I can go up/down/select/back etc... and that's pretty much it.
Is there a way to get more functionality out of the romote? ie Guide / DVR / numberpad?
Is this even a MrMc issue or is it an Apple TV issue?
Thanks in advance!
1. No user installed addons are supported, python or otherwise.
2. No, they really are not supported.
3. They are not coming back
4. Read from 1. again

Re: MrMc and Logitech remote
The normal appletv/IR remote (like logitech harmony ) is limited to a small set of standard operations.dubstastic wrote: ↑10 Jul 2018, 23:36 Hey guys,

MrMC does support bluetooth keyboards like the Apple Magic Keyboards. These have a larger selection of operations tied to keyboard keys,
I'm not sure there's a way to have a logitech harmony emulate a bluetooth keyboard.

Re: MrMc and Logitech remote
Thanks for your reply. I did try adding an apple Bluetooth keyboard to my Logitech devices but I couldn't find the right device.
The other issue, is because the remote is controlling Apple TV and not the app, even if I could add the device, I cant see where to tell logitech that the keyboard is controlling the Apple TV (that made sense in my head).
I tried adding a pc as I did with the regular HTPC and the activity doesnt know that I want to use pc to control the apple tv.
again, that made sense in my head.
