The original remote control is working properly. Navigation in XBMC is liquid and the mouse replacement function very practical (under WinXP).
However, the recipient of this remote control is not compatible with the Logitech Harmony One. Despite lengthy experiments with the delay settings he could not be persuaded to implement liquid semiskilled key commands from the Harmony. All entries are executed with an unacceptable delay. More Forum research showed that this is true for other Harmony models along with the Hama receiver also. Am therefore switched to a standard RC6 infrared receiver. My Conclusion:
Who uses >>> recommended the original FB.
Who wants >>> unsuitable teach a Logitech FB.
