i have this remote for my vista mce: http://www.directron.com/gpir02bk.html
the logitech 550 is nice but cant seem to find my remote on logitech's website. am i missing something?

It's an IR bas remote so even if there are no codes in logitech's database you can still learn the codes from the mce remote into the harmony. This does take time and a bit of patience.

Just add your PC as a Microsoft Media Center, it'll download the appropriate codes for your remote. Works fine for fine me. Interestingly enough a lot of the codes for the XBox 360 are the same as a media center remote, perhaps identical as I've found my media center being controlled by the remote when I have it on the 360 activity.

There's a setting on the 360 that will make it only look for the 360 Media Remote. By default it will also accept the MCE remote.
