JP1 Remotes

I want to be able to select the input of my TV to a device and at the same time have the remote be in the device mode. For example I want to select TV antena on the TV but to operate the TV, the remote has to be in the TV device mode.

I can do the input selection fine with a macro but can not select the Device mode from the same macro??

Putting the TV command at the end of your macro should do it. If not, post your IR file so we can see exactly what you're doing.

I'm trying to enable the cable device button but it will not work. I even tried to double up on the Cable command.

The TV device will work. TV is an embedded device and Cable appears to be an upgrade that comes with the remote.

Normally I'd have you download the IRHelp.PDF but we've been working on getting that into the wiki.

If you are in TV mode, the keymove is getting activated, not the macro.

If you burried those inputs into the upgrade, you could use shift cloaking,

Or another approach would be to move each of those inputs to the device that needs them.

Cbl/Swap := TV/1758 - 00137 Select Comp input
Aux/Swap:= TV/1758 - 00197 Select HDMI input

OK, I understand now. Got it all fixed.
I put all the functions into a phantom key and called that from the macro.
thanks
