You can set up an activity in EZ-RC or RM.

To post files, click File Section at the top of the page, then Diagnosis then Upload.

I fixed your file. Download it from here and then open and download Activities.rmir to your remote.

Which TV is connected to your Denon, the Panasonic or the LG? Whichever one is not connected, you need to change Volume lock for it on the General tab to OFF, then save and download again.

I added those on the Activities tab. Press Watch TV to turn on Denon and TV. Press Good Night to turn them off.

Set the Volume Lock for the LG on the General tab to OFF. Click to change it. Then save and download.

Volume Lock is not an activity. An activity is an activity.

I did not put the FIOS power command in the activities. To do it yourself, go to the activities tab, double click the Power macro, Add the desired commands for each device, and Set.

But a better way would be to use discrete on and off rather than power. On FIOS, for On in the Watch TV activity, use Menu then Exit. For Off in the Good Night activity, use Menu then Power. If you use only the Power command, the box will turn off if it is already on, which you do not want to happen when you press Watch TV. If you don't understand what I'm saying, just use Power and run the activities a second time if the FIOS box turns on or off when it should not.

It is normal that when I have selected my AV receiver device the repeats works ok but when I have selected other device with the volume buttons mapped to the AV receiver repeats doesn't work?

What remote are you using? I would expect repeats to work when mapped from a different device, but it will depend how they are implemented in the remote. I can't see how it would be a problem with RMIR.

Xsight Touch -the one branded by Acoustic Research-.

Can anyone confirm this is normal behavior for this remote? I find it strange.

Not normal. My guess is you're using learns in the cases it's not repeating. Would need to see your RMIR file to confirm.

Here you have:

I worked on the receiver file some years ago and finished it recently. All my work was based on Onkyo documention and trial all error, no learns were involved.

Sorry, but could you please Upload to the Diagnosis area of our File Section instead.

Done.

On the General tab set Onkyo Volume Lock to MASTER and all the others to ON. Optionally, you can delete whatever vol button assignments you made in your devices (except the Onkyo).

You may want to consider making some Activities in the future. Vol key assignments can also be made there.

Ok, will try, thanks for the tip.

PS: tried and working. I still want to figure out why it didn't work the other way but I'm busy with other stuff right now to investigate it. Noted as a future project.
