    Global Media Box and Logitech Harmony Remote

    Does anyone know if the Global Media Box works with the Logitech Harmony Universal Remote control. I need to streamline my remotes and through this was be great if I could get this working with one remote but could not find anything on the web about it. Any help would be appreciated.

    I read a lot about it, and it looks like you can but you might have to add an app, me personally i use a Hausbell H7.

    Tough to get an actual code for many Android STB's.
    Does the Harmony not have a "Learn" function available on their devices?
    (if not...what are you paying $$$ for!!)
    Learn function allows you to assign each button on an external remote, to the corresponding button on the Harmony, just by pointing the 2 remotes together.

    Here is info for the 650's manual;
    Adding additional features to your Harmony 650
    It’s possible that a device’s commands are not recognized. Maybe you have a very rare device? Or a new one? Although we update our device list regularly, there are always new devices in the market. To remedy this, you can teach your Harmony how to control this device by using the device’s original remote.
    Teaching your Harmony 650 new commands using your old remote
    With the Learn IR feature of the Harmony 650 and the Harmony Remote Software, you can use your device’s original remote to “teach” your Harmony 650. You should only need to use this feature when Logitech’s device list doesn’t have your device listed, or there’s a button you want to use that’s missing from the device configuration.To use the Harmony 650’s learning feature, go to the Harmony Remote Software.
    Select the 1. Devices tab.
    Click 2. Learn IR located next to the device you want to control.
    Follow the online instructions.
