How is this remote when using the media functions (i.e. volume up and down, track next, etc). Is it annoying to have to press the M key every time you want to use media functions? When you press M-- does it toggle the media mode so it stays on? Thanks :]

I use it with Ubuntu 12.04, the media function works out of the box, it works great. The M key is NOT momentary, you have to switch it on and off every time you want to use the media function. It does not have the F1, F2, F3,... keys.

I think I download the app on my samsung droid which is like a sony remote control app. if you look at the last paragraph on page one of the following link (a review that i found on google) it talks about such a thing. i have used it only once or twice and did not try any actual keyboarding because i mostly use it to mirror my ipad. http://www.soundandvisionmag.com/article/test-report-sony-bravia-xbr-55hx929-3d-lcd-hdtv edit: added link i hope thats kosher on amazon

Thanks for the question. When operating in remote, there is a limit to the 1.5m this product. In addition, other buttons and one button can be combined. If these do not work, I can be considered initial defect. You have to's instructions, but it needs to be reported to the seller that it did not move. You can ask for exchange or refund to the seller. Or, I recommend that you consult the Amazon. I think that it can be resolved in these. Thanks in advance.

What are the uses that are most affected by the RF signal? I see these posts a lot, and have a decent knowledge of RF, but I'm curious why people complain about this so much.Many traditional remotes without RF will still allow you to control a device out of your line of sight as long as it is in proximity (same room) to you.In any event, my understanding is that the Harmony One does not have RF. I'm waiting for somebody to reply to my question on the top review to clear this up.

Haven't tried to use it, but the remote has 2 "repeat" buttons, one yellow & one green, at the 2nd lowest row on the remote. Would have to look it up in the manual, but assume one is an instant repeat. If I recall I've used the skip function to jump ahead, but I've just been using it for instructional DVD's for guitar & it jumps ahead to the next section of the lesson/song when I hit the appropriate ff button.

Hate to tell you this Jim, but if you look up the manual on line it will tell you it is not programmable. My guess it only works if you have a Panasonic TV. If it works with any other TV you just got lucky. We have a Samsung and we have to use our Samsun remote to control the volume. I was just happy we could get a factory replacement to watch Netflix through it.Hope this helps

You get some functions, but not complete control. The up and down arrows raise and lower sound, the left and right will skip to next and last song, and the play button will pause or start it. You cannot, however, navigate menus or anything like that. Its best to start a playlist and use the remote for some simple commands

Thanks for the heads up. Maybe I should spend $50 on one of the "majic" remotes. Not sure which one to get. They all appear to be limited in functions.

I am not using that setup so this is only theory. I am able to customize the buttons within each app I choose on my pc. The device itself is just a simple plug and play (think wireless mouse). No software comes with it so you have to use the app software to adjust the input buttons.As long as there is a "hotkey" setup in your preferences somewhere in the software you use there shouldn't be a problem. That said, as soon as I plugged mine into my pc the "dvd" media buttons worked fine in 3 different "dvd" apps I use. Again, I've never even seen what you have in person but I would not think there would be a problem as it basically takes over your normal keypad. I am not using that setup so this is only theory.

I've got a sony remote from a TV I bought at the same time as the Network Media Player, but can't find the code to program it. Anyone know the remote code?

I have used my remote to rewind and play the tapes. The touch screen got to where I could not use for any functions but could rewind & play the tape I had in there. That is all I have really used the remote for. Love the camera though.

If you click on the "Smart" button on the remote, one of the icons is for web browsing. I've used it and it works (as long as you setup your T.V. ) on your home network. Since I don't have a keyboard attached to the T.V. it was cumbersome using selecting one letter at a time from the virtual keyboard and remote control, so I hardly ever use it.

I find that I don't use them. It's a good TV, but it's a TV first. I've never used these motion, or gesturs, or spoken comands to my TV. You'll have your cable or sattelite receiver and that's the remote you'll use to change channels, turn your TV on/off, and affect volume. I'd buy last year's model and save your money and forego the fancy features you won't use.

I have the special edition! It comes with an air mouse/keypad instead of a remote... It is great, however I have had a few issues with my gbox. I have a friend with the regular box, never had one issue and it also came loaded with xbmc. I think both are good

I like this remote, it's very functional the only thing is that when using the keypad on the back, it's easy to press a button on the front which can be annoying sometimes especially because of the mouse. I've never used the Q remote.

There is something under the "Energy saving" setting. It has a list from Screen off - - > Maximum. It's talking about the dimming effect...when screen off is selected as long as you don't wave the remote around it'll be off. Sound seems to be working just fine. Hope this helps.
