creating a macro for blue button

Post by rlefig »

Good Day,

I am really new to remote programming, but I was wonder if I could create a macro for the blue button. where it would exit media center and the open "My pins". I am running media center on the xbox. It would be great if this action could be done by just pressing the blue button without using the shift.

thank you

You asked this question as a reply in a thread about the extender for the URC-6440, does that mean you are a JP1 user with the extender installed? As this is your first post, I am guessing not, so maybe you can give a little more info.

Realize there is no discrete code for "My pins". So the best you could do is a macro that exits media center and uses the arrows and ok to select it, assuming you're always in the same spot when you exit.

Yes I would be great if the macro exited media center and I could use the arrows and then OK to select it as it the xbox always go back to the "home" page when you exit media center. So from the sound of it assigning a macro to the blue button is doable.

I will need to read more docs and helpful hints would be uh helpful as well

I have the black OARUSB04G and I have not loaded the extended software yet, but did download and read some of it. I do have remote master loaded and have been reading up on that as well.
