Help Setting up Harmony 520 Remote with Pioneer VSX 1019 - Blu-ray Forum

silverstang · 07-21-2009, 07:32 PM

I have a 1019 and a harmony 520 remote. I have programmed all my devices to the harmony. Everything seems to work seemless with the remote except for the USB ipod GUI functions such as selecting playlists, changing songs, etc... I seem to have to use the remote that came with the receiver to navigate within the ipod GUI. Has anyone else had this problem or have a possible solution? Once this is figured out, everything will work perfect and I can truly use one remote for my entire setup.

You need to map the functions to the Harmony remote. You can either map them to hard buttons or to the screen.

To do it: Using the Logitech Harmony Software when you are in the "Activities" screen, click on "Customize Buttons".

You will them be able to assign functions of the component remote to the Harmony remote. Also if a function of the remote is not listed, the Harmony can learn the command (to do it follow the procedure on screen).

I hope this helps!

I have already tried this and it does NOT work. Does anyone have this receiver and this model remote that can confirm it works? I need to get IPOD/USB functions to work with the harmony.
