JP1 Remotes

While an X_ command is active, it applies to all keys. The usual division into Volume, Transport and Other doesn't apply.

So I made a DSM: TV/shift-Vol+ is X_TV, vol+.
Same for the others.
DSMs fell into the keymoves sheet. That's ok. Newly entered, they were behind the macros in IR. I rearranged and now macros come last as they're supposed to. The keymoves should take priority.

But they don't. shift-vol+ still goes to Denon amp.
Is it possible that another bunch of keymoves I have, on TV/XSHIFT-Vol+ and others, to control volume buttons on still another device, causes the DSM not to work?

Same to you Liz!

Vicky, everything you wrote is totally correct for 6131. However, native volume is redirected by a macro, which should be processed AFTER keymoves. I must be making some assumptions or a stupid mistake someplace. Just don't see it.

Wanted to spare you the trouble.
OK, both versions included. Neither one works the volumes the way I planned. Both versions send volumes to Denon.

FAV/SCAN:
=========

You can use IR to define a Fav list of up to 15 mini-macros of up to 5 keys
each. IR handles all 15 mini-macros together as one line item in its Scan/Fav
tab. Within that line item, the mini macros are delimited by "{pause}". IR
also allows you to create additional whole Fav lists; But the remote can't
use them.

The extender operates the Fav list differently than the unextended remote
in three important aspects:

1) The extender executes just one mini-macro each time you press the Fav key
(advancing through them circularly). The unextended remote will continue
executing the mini-macros with 3 second pauses in between until you press
another key to stop it.

2) The extender will switch the temporary device index to equal the Fav
device index whenever it starts a Fav mini-macro. The unextended remote
only recognizes the Fav list if the device index already matches the Fav
device index.

3) The unextended remote will do a Scan operation instead of a Fav list
operation whenever the Fav key is used in a device index that doesn't match.
The extender will never do a Scan operation. To have it do something other
than a Fav operation on certain device indexes, you must define a Key Move
for Fav for each such device index. (The Key Move will only override the
Fav List if IR.EXE puts the key move earlier within the
KeyMove/Macro/FavList pool than it puts the FavList.)

Nice help file. Really nice.

Vicky, you may want to add about FAV button into your IRhelp LKMS order.
It comes last, after macros.
