What I'd like to do is get a RemotePi and use their existing remote which has different modes. (It was on my Amazon Account and I had the foresight to put a PIN for purchases, as I kind of knew they'd try this at some point) But Rasplex would be ideal for my parents, who couldn't get to grips with the FireTV and kept trying to buy stuff rather than launch Plex. While setting the Pi3 up as a "Windows Media Center PC" gives me basic button actions, it fills the little LCD with useless commands that have no bearing on a RasPlex.Īlso RasPlex has some FAQ on remote controlĪt home I'm using a LibreElec HTPC with a FLIRC and a Harmony Remote. My Harmony hub based remote is another matter. You can pickup inexpensive "media center" remotes off ebay/amazon that come with a USB IR transceiver. Don't suppose you know any good guides?ĭepends on what you have for a remote. I'm really interested in this as I've got a need for a Plex client and an unused RPi2, just trying to figur out the remotepi thing and how you actually learn the remote signals. Could have saved $15 off the initial purchase if I had known I needed a special case for add-on board. Waiting 15+ days for RemotePi board and case.

Daughter board adds both a hardware power BUTTON as well as a IR receiver that can control said button. Google-foo ensues whereas I come across the "RemotePi Board for Pi 3". Need a way to turn this thing on with the remote. Un/re plug the power cord on Pi3 and it boots back on. Switch over to Roku using remote for a while.

I could've just used all that time doing some extra work and bought a bare bones Mac Mini with the money.The best laid plans of mice and men. The whole thing was very time consuming and frustrating. Instead what I got was some Harmony buttons mapped to some keyboard commands that occasionally repeated and other Harmony buttons would stay mapped to my soundbar. I wanted to push an activity button on the remote and have all the Harmony buttons mapped to appropriate keyboard commands.
