Does the remote work with something like the Logitech Harmony One remote? I'd love to be able to set this to auto on and switch for gaming/movie?

I do not think so...the remote and receiver that comes with the kit is IR (I believe) and is uniquely programed and color coordinated. I am not very familiar with the Logitech Harmony One Remote so I Googled it. It seems like that remote is more for digital media hardware controlling (i.e. TV remote, Sound/Stereo, Projector remote,etc.). I also am not sure why you would want this for gaming or movies considering it would be a bright distraction. The LED strip does dim, but not all the way. This LED kit is more for architectural ambient designing/enhancements. I am curious as to why and how you intend to use these lights. Overall, I have never seen these lights being controlled with any other remote control other than the one that is provided. I have seen people rewire the lights into a DMX controller and operate it with a special control console or remote. I hope this answered your question. Good luck!

Logitech Harmony remotes work with pretty much everything, I used it with the moboplay (no longer have it), and it worked way better than the original.

Hi Kay....I did purchase this remote, but returned it because it did not work with what I wanted to control. Sorry

I should work fine; but anyways, you can go to logitech.com and look for the compatibility section were you can enter the model of the device and it will tell you if it is support... this remote is IR (infrared signal) as most remotes in the market, however there are some devices like the Roku and the Amazon Fire TV that uses Bluetooth remotes; is your tv uses an IR remote it should work

While I don't know about your remote, I have a Logitech Harmony One and it has been programmed to control the volume.

Whether or not this will work with or without a hub is really dependent on the console, not the remote. The remote can technically be programmed to operate any A/V component with an IR remote sensor, it's just a question of how patient you are with the programming. Most, like myself, are not very patient. If the XBOX One or PS4 have IR remote sensors, this remote will work, eventually. But don't bother. Even though it's only a few years old, it's already dated in style and function. I rated it pretty highly years ago, which is probably why I was one of the people Amazon asked to answer this question, but I would honestly suggest you try a different product. I used it for a year before I got tired of it. Mine is now forgotten in a dark corner of my house. Having 1 universal remote makes the coffee table tidier, but usability becomes more challenging because the same buttons can perform different functions depending on the device you selected. And if you have 5 pieces like I did, it gets confusing. I've often pressed the wrong button or had it set to one component when I meant to control another. Heaven help you if you have 18 components like this is designed to handle. A year late, I just laid out a nice leather valet to put all my remotes in. Takes up more space, but because each remote is unique in appearance and function, it worked out better for me. Look for something that was released this year, maybe from the Harmony family, if you want to be sure of compatibility with next-gen consoles. Though, just because it came out this year, doesn't mean it's certain to be compatible. I have a feeling the XBOX One & PS4 use Bluetooth, just like the PS3 did. This remote definitely does not do Bluetooth. My PS3 was the one device this could not control.

This remote is to control a receiver unit not necessarily a DVD player. It says on it that this will control one but I have not tried it, sorry.

Logitech told me that all I needed was a single ir extender to add to my harmony one remote - and that would fix the problem. I haven't bought it yet, but I wanted to leave a comment, so people will have a little more info.

Since this remote only has one programmable activity, you must switch to the various devices -- change input on your TV, Change source on your amp. , etc. Just like you would on any $8 universal remote. Really, it is not what you buy the Harmony for. For the actual functionality you're looking for, you should try to get a Harmony model that can handle 3 or 4 activities (650 etc).

I think you can check the Logitech database here: logitech.com/harmony/componentsI have two Harmony remotes and really like them. Best lineup of universal remotes on the market. I have had others, but they always end up omitting functions. The Harmony method of configuring the remotes using the internet is far superior to the numerical codes. I would not buy any universal remote other than Harmony.

Yes, we have a Logitech Harmony 900 universal remote, and it works with that.

FYI - if you're willing to spend the money, I can confirm that a combination of the Harmony 900 remote and the Precision IR Cable will also solve the problem. The Harmony 900 has addressable ports, which you can assign to specific devices. My setup is working great as such, but my Harmony One remote was not good enough, since it did NOT has addressable ports. An upgrade to the 900 was required for my setup.

Although I was able to succesfully set it up in the Harmony Remote as the box is defined in the database, I had no luck trying to make it "learn" the IR output of the remote. Just didn't recognize anything from any button.

I don't think so. It only responds to Insteon commands, and I believe most home theater equipment use a different protocol. I have the Lutron Maestro in my theater -- it uses an IR remote and the commands can be memorized by my Logitech Harmony.

Logitech has a number of programmable remotes that work well, except for the web interface keyboard on the back of the Samsung turkey. I've been using an older model 820 and it works fine for all the TV functions.

Thanks, M. Squires - much appreciated. I expect that I'll be using a Harmony remote, but presumably that just replicates the TV remote's own signal. If you find definitively that this either does or doesn't work, I'd love to know.

Any Logitech Harmony remote will control the PS3 if you add the IR USB dongle for about $15...
