My URC 3661 is not switching to the Audio device when the Stop watching HTPC macro is executed.

The functions before the Audio button is "pressed" by the macro are working correctly and the other two macros function correctly i.e they switch to the Audio device and send the correct keys (note that the keys are not shifted, see below) to the Audio device.

With more testing I've also noticed that the Shift function is not working for the Audio device. The amplifier is turning on when the 1 button is pressed, not because the discrete ON function is being sent. I have mapped the discrete ON and OFF commands to other buttons and they work as expected.

I have an Arduino programmed with the AllProtocols sketch from the IRMP library example and can confirm that the discrete codes are not being sent when the SETUP button is pressed twice before pressing the 0 or 1 buttons; the normal 0 or 1 codes are sent.

The Shift function has been confirmed to be working by the Arduino for the TV device when sending the discrete ON and OFF codes for the TV.

My file with the faulty macro is here:

I am using RMIR v3.2.0

Any ideas why the Stop watching HTPC macro is not functioning correctly and why the Shift function is not working for the Audio device?

thanks,
Michael

I am not sure but your working macros are of the multi item type
the non working one is a normal one
Since we can not put a Multi item macro on a shifted key
as an experiment put your macro as a Multi Item on the normal not shifted
"Watch Movie" key and see if the macro works

I'm not sure what you mean by this. The keys to run the two multi item macros are not shifted.
Do you mean that if a key has a multi item macro attached to it it can't also be used as a shifted key?

I have tried that but it still does not send the discrete OFF to the Audio device.

While doing more testing I think I may have found the real issue; it seems that the shifted Audio device keys are not being handled correctly, refer to this post for more details:

I'll wait to see if someone has any solutions to my other issue above.

thanks,
Michael
