Hugbug,
Thanks for replying.
You see, it's the same circle the other people with the same problem got into.
I understand that if I had an original remote, than I could learn the codes into harmony.

My main question is - is there a good device in harmony's database to use as a template???

Which device on your pocket pc did you use to program your harmony?

I tried quite a few devices including some "TV-Video-Combination" too. They all were not quite perfect.
- two or more codes per button
- two or more repeats per button
- different codes depending on the length of press
the best so far was a sony dvd writer - almost perfect but for some reason it had same codes for some buttons (play=record, RW=FW) which is really strange..

I use Harmony, IgorPlugUSB-IR-receiver and Eventghost-Software.
I also used Girder before. Both config work.
Harmony emulates other remotes pretty well. Your problem
should be in pc-config, not in harmony. Can you control
PC with other (not universal) remotes?

BTW, I created my harmony's HTPC-device from scratch (as
a device of type "TV-Video-Combination" from unknown brand)
and learned it with commands from another universal remote
(it was a pocket pc with remote control software). This
allows me to add new commands if I need them. I also use
the second remote to check if PC can detect new commands,
before I push them to harmony.
