PS3 Blu-Ray remote - is it Bluetooth?

[6th.replicant]

Does the PS3 Blu-Ray DVD remote use Bluetooth? Can its functions be assimilated by a Logitec 555 universal remote? Thanks.

Yes it is and no it can't. You need to add something like this, which plugs into a USB port on the PS3 and gives infrared remote control, which the Harmony 555 can then operate.

I've got this and it works well with my harmony but it can't do the power. Rob

Or try

throw away the useless remote, keep the usb dongle. Similar results, but cheaper.

Please help!

Bought a Logic3, but can't get it to 'talk' to my Harmony 555.

Tried using the Logic3 entry in Harmony's database & it does not work.

Tried manually loading the commands but Harmony's onscreen prompts don't correspond to Logic3's buttons. Er...?
