I tried the discrete codes you posted. And they still didn't work either. I'm guessing it has to do with the duration issue you spoke of earlier. Since I need that device combiner which is HUGE, I won't be able to fix it that way either.

Since it looks like I'm not going to get to use TT's anyway ...

I'm not sure I'm being helpful, but I will continue to ask questions in search of clarity. If what you are doing is cleear to others helping, then I'll just butt out and continue watching, but...

ALL attempts to help me figure this out are greatly appreciated.

Several aspects of your IR file ...

Does anyone know if this can be done on a URC-6131 with a 1k extender? My remote was upgraded by OFA.

Your ToadTogs, bound to the Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down keys in PVR mode, set the temporary device to VCR, and then press the Power key. This is OK if you really want the VCR device turned on/off, but I thought you wanted the PVR device turned on/off.

You should be using X_PVR instead of X_VCR ...

The "0" means we want to use toggle 0.

What does it mean toggle 0 ?

I understand binary code (I've used it in my own programming) but I'm not too sure about HEX.

The Keycode HTML file says that the power button is HEX 03.

Would a "virtual discrete on" for my VCR be set up as a:

1) key-move ...

RE #1) Well I've been reading more. It seems THIS is where the ToadTogs come right? Use TT to create my own discrete off/on.

1) That makes sense. How do you find out if there's a discrete on (and what it is) then?

2) This is the entire list of macros that are currently installed on my remote (I copy/pasted from IR.exe). When I press the volume up button, it DOES turn up the volume on my surround sound (and all other ...

I think I'm FINALLY on the right track. I continued doing my own research into what could possibly be going wrong.

Well it looks like I had downloaded the WRONG EXTENDER. I mistakenly downloaded the 2k extender. My remote was upgraded by OFA.

I've got it back to the the point where It's ...

I'm not sure what is wrong. I don't have the "Specail Protocols" tab that you spoke of recently.

When I attempt to add macros like what is in your (Greg's) ir file, X_VCR and the like is not available.

I started wondering if I had actually installed the extender correctly (I downloaded it the ...
