kameleon 6-in-1 (2133)

Post by superflymd »

I got a 2133 fairly cheap, but I'm a little disappointed so far. Buttons I use together all the time with the TiVo (like up/down and channel up/down) can't be accessed on the same screen at the same time. It's a pain constantly switching screens.

I have an older JP1 cable lying around. Can I use it to program which buttons I want active on a particular screen for a particular device?

Thanks,

SF

The standard problem with the Kameleons is that even with IR and the extender you can not control what buttons are illuminated in each device since it is done at the hardware level.

However, with the extenders you can control which screen is the primary screen when you switch into the device. In other words if you prefer screen 2 in TV you can set a macro on the device button that switches to TV and selects the screen you want. That is still not as good as being able to make all buttons appear.
