You’ll need to assign that button through the command line interface: Notice that the Pause/Break button is crossed out, that’s because the GUI interface doesn’t include that button for some reason. Now the OK button is assigned! Repeat for all other keyboard keys that are used by the playstation.

Program should respond by saying “button learned”.

Edit your PS4 activity to use the FLIRC device to control your PS4.The brand is FLIRC, and the model is XBMC Add a new device in your Harmony setup.There’s a template for XBMC for those who have a spazzy XBMC setup at home.įLIRC is new and support database is spotty, so I’ve included a set of instructions for Harmony users to get going: It’s actually a really cool device for it works with any PC, OUYA, or other devices emulating a USB keyboard, and all the keys are customizable. What you need is the FLIRC infrared dongle. Not a perfect one, and it does require you to part with $23, but never the less I can now perform all the basic controls plus exit play mode to turn off the PS4 without using the controller, so I’m happy. Since Logitech had been dragging its ass on supporting the PS4 through bluetooth, we Harmony users had been dual wielding the remote and the PS4 controller when watching DVD and Netflix.Īt last, there is an intermediate solution.

Good news for those who wish to control the Playstation 4 with your Harmony Remote!
