Is there a remote code to have MCE recognize Mediabrowser as the default movie app. i have a Phillips TSU7000 remote that i have a MCE remote learned. I have created a shortcut to MCE and added a string for Mediabrowser. This shortcut works perfectly. i dont know how or even if it is possible to get a remote to use/recognize this shortcut. i do have a macro set up to get to media browser but would prefer it to work more seamless i.e. my movies, live tv, my pictures. i have looked at intelliremote but it is awfully expensive for one button and pretty complicated. any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have a Logitech Harmony One and it was fairly easy to map the MediaBrowser shortcut to the remote, not sure if the below guide will help as this is specific to the Logitech software.

I understand a program like eventghost can also be used to map shortcut’s to remote controls..
