Harmony 880 W/ SageTV 6.4

[bleucube]

Made the switch from VMC to SageTV 6.4. And I'm loving it so far. I like the default interface over SageMC and the wife is 80% onboard. Help me make her 100%.

Here's what she dislikes:
"Too many menu's to do simple things"

Example:
When done watching a show, we delete it and another menu pops up wanting to know why we are deleting. She just want to press the CLEAR button on the remote and have it gone without asking questions.

So I have a Harmony 880 and its set to use Microsoft MCE. SageTV is set to MCE. Everything works great, but is there a way that I can add commands to say "Delete, Don't Like" or Just to "Delete it". Can I also get configure it so I highlight a show and choose Play that It just plays instead of getting a popup?

Thanks!

I have my HTPC connected directly to my TV so I'm running SageTV 6.4 for Windows. To control

This is what I do while the end of the show is still playing, press clear 1 or 2 times, a small menu pops up to confirm.

Thanks Scat.
What command do you have Clear set to? Is it as simple as delete?

I use a free program called Eventghost to control everything from my Harmony 880 to my HTPC.

I use a plugin that is made for Eventghost and I assign the
command [SageTV: Delete] to the Clear button that is
at the bottom left on the Harmony 880, because this is the same button that is used on my DirecTV PVR so that way
all deleting is the same between the two units.

I have made a pdf file that explains how I connected EventGhost, SageTV, Foobar2000, and my Harmony 880 remote to my HTPC
