Open Elec+Flirc+Logitech Harmony

[Andybtsn]

Hi guys,

I currently have a Logitech Harmony Touch and a Zotac mini PC with Open Elec installed (No O/S) - The setup works fine except I leave the Zotac on 24/7, I would like it to turn on/off when I press the power button on my Harmony like my amp and TV does.

Is this possible? I presume it's not possible due to the USB powering down when the Zotac is off meaning any IR received by the Flirc isn't recognised?

Cheers

Cheers, seems like this could work although I'm sure my amp used to mess up when I had HDMI CEC enabled. I might try it

I bought one of these (quick delivery!), no dice so far testing in my office. I have the same setup in here albeit a different TV. OpenElec/Kodi recognises the USB-CEC is plugged in but the Logitech still doesn't turn the PC off. I did check with them before hand and they told me it would work. Using the LG TV remote turned the PC off for two seconds but it seemed a reboot if anything.

The support on their website is pretty none existent.
