I've got it pretty much figured out, cool stuff.
3 days down the drain, but the results are worth it.

One thing I never figured out and it's been bugging me....

On the General Tab under Other Settings, there is a list of Devices....
T Device, V Device, etc.
I know that T is transport buttons, and V is Volume etc.

but what are these settings for?
they are all set to TV by default and I never changed them and all works as planned, but what would you use these settings for?

thanks for replying.

Thank you for the quick response.

So for instance:
All my device button macros have V_AUX2 in them.

If I understand this, then I can remove all V references from those macros and put AUX2 in the V of the General Options.
In effect I would save 6 bytes of memory (I only use 6 devices).

Is this correct?

Was that in the documentation, I read over it 2 or 3 times, but never got that out of it. To be honest I just couldn't do more than scan over it after the 1st time, I was way too tired.

right, I did read that, but it was not clear what they meant about punch through, since the extender doesn't use that wording. Now that I understand it, the documentation makes sense. But probably should be revised from the newbie perspective.
