Re: [slim] Harmony One/SB Classic+Radio conflict
There are two other options to consider... SBS Settings Player SB3 Remote 1. Turn Off just the SB3/Classic's included IR remote (Slim-Devices-Remote), enable the JVC-DVD remote option, now control SB3 with with a JVC-DVD remote or a simple Universal IR remote with JVC-DVD codes. To my knowledge the Radio does not have JVC-DVD IR remote capabilities. My Radio does not respond to my JVC-DVD IR remote. 2. Turn Off ALL SB3/Classic IR remote access, but then you loose independent IR control of that player. This leaves SB3/Classic control left to: - SBS web UI - MySB.com web UI - controlled by Radio - Synced with Radio Hopefully, some day, they will include IR control features (like turning OFF IR input) with the Radio for just this scenario. The Radio has a nice front face button setup so IR control is not necessary. Not so with the SB3/Classic. :) -- toby10 toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75123 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Harmony One/SB Classic+Radio conflict
I have a SB Classic and a SB Radio which I've tried to control with my Harmony One remote. It works fine, except that when I try to control one of them, I conrol both (they are in the same room). I installed the Classic and Radio as two separate activities. Any suggestions? -- Eivindz Eivindz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31723 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75123 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Harmony One/SB Classic+Radio conflict
Tape over the IR sensor on one of them? Or use your hand to block the signal depending on which one you want to control. I did the blocking thing for a while, but it was a pain. I ended up replacing the SB in my living room with a Receiver, which does not have IR. I can still control it via IR because I keep it synced with the Boom in the same room. -- MeSue SUE 1 Duet | 2 Booms | 1 Radio | 1 Touch (beta) | 1 SB2 HP MediaSmart EX470 | Squeezebox Server 7.4 | iPod Touch w/ iPeng Find me on 'Last.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/MeSue) | 'Twitter' (http://twitter.com/suechastain) MeSue's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=985 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75123 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Harmony One?
I have just purchaed a Harmony One - my first Harmony - and it works fantastically well with my SB3 and all my other devices (Philips TV, Sony DVD and Onkyo Amp). It was cheap enough (£102 in the UK from the BT Store, but I purchased mine direct from Logitech using code JELLYBATTLE2A which gave a 20% discount/rebate) that I'll be happy using it until such a time as Logitech/SlimDevices produce a merged Harmony/Jive remote control (fingers crossed!) :) -- Milhouse Milhouse's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=928 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43312 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Harmony One?
I have a Harmony 659, 880, and now a Harmony One - All will do a fine job controlling an SB3. The web connection allows you to find your devices in a database and have them set up automatically. You can then add all of the other commands that are specific to the original remote into the soft buttons on the touch screen. As a tip, I would very much recommend fully setting up all Devices before moving to Activities, which are the one-button macros. Make sure the hard buttons are set up to do what you want for that Device - Then add all of the other commands from the original remote for each Device into the soft buttons for that Device (These commands are also in the database - just select them) This will insure that all commands are availabe as you set up Activities. Activities have a Wizard interface to make sure each device is controlled in such a manner that they all work together. The Activities have both hard and soft command buttons, also. You can customize the remote so that it will act exactly like you want it to - If you think this remote is OK, but I really wish it would ___ - Just go into setup and tell it to do exactly that. Good luck - You can't go wrong with a Harmony ! -- whdean whdean's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9127 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43312 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Harmony One?
I am currently using a Harmony 1000 to control one of my SB3s without any issues. I have got it to learn the brightness and other commands and can even update the firmware I notice that the price of the Harmony One in the UK is £129 compared to $249 which means that once Tax etc is taken into account it is cheaper in the UK!!! -- MuckleEck Alasdair 3 SB3s - Linn - Acoustat - AudioEngine 2 - Cambridge Audio 640R - Mordaunt Short MuckleEck's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11301 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43312 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

If you're struggling, I've always found Harmony support very effective. The level one support people are very obliging but actually can't do much more than you can do yourself with the web set up, but once you get escalated to level 2 (in Canada) they are real experts and can do whatever tailoring you need. -- neilcoburn neilcoburn's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=653 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43312 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Harmony One?
I am considering buying one of these. It will be used as the remote for my Transporter, TV, Sat. box, and universal player (which I run through the TP Dac's digital inputs). I run my TP directly to my power amps w/no pre. A few questions, in general, what do people think of this remote? How well does it operate as a SB/TP remote? CAn I also program this to operate another tv, sat box, and dvd (no sb/tp or stereo)? Finally, I understand that the Harmony will turn on my tv and dvd player and put the tv in dvd mode all w/ the push of one button. Can it also be programmed to tun on the digital input on my TP as part of that one button process? Thanks in advance for your help. -- Shredder Shredder's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11380 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43312 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Harmony One?
I don't have one of these devices but what I can say is that it should be able to switch the TP as it can replicate the IR signals that the standard remote sends to the TP to get it to switch. -- Zaragon Zaragon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14577 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43312 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Don't know about the One specifically (is it even out yet?) but I have a number of other Harmony devices and they all work well with the SB products. CAn I also program this to operate another tv, sat box, and dvd (no sb/tp or stereo)? It will list any limits on the website but you can basically add as many devices activities as you wish. I wouldn't however try to use one remote for more than one room/setup, it will lead to confusion. The Harmony way of working fails completely if you use any other remote with the devices it controls - you have to put them all away in a drawer!
