Customizing buttons on your remote's screen
With Harmony remotes, you can customize the commands that appear on your screen. These are unique for each Activity. For example, you can set the Subtitle command to be on your screen when using your Watch a Movie Activity, and your Sound mode command to be on your screen with your Listen to Music Activity.
