I went through all 255 EFC codes via the "push setup once then type in the code" method and could not find the discrete off for this dvd player...am I hosed or is there hope for another way to add the discrete off in a macro?

Do any of the buttons turn on the player if it's off (except for POWER, obviously) ? The PLAY button will often turn on the player, so PLAY, POWER would work as a discrete off macro.

Yes, I'm using the play button as a discrete on for another macro...so that's quite a clever workaround for the discrete off...thanks!

I use a Samsung VCR/DVD combo that does not have discrete on/off functions.
The PLAY button does not turn the unit on...but from DVD mode, open/close will power-on the unit. The following macro will perform Discrete ON, regardless of the on/off state of the unit.
DISCRETE ON
Dev_DVD [required for 2116/2117 remotes]
phantom1 [select DVD, for my Samsung it's EFC 104]
power
phantom1
open/close
power
power
The last two macro steps (power, power) turn the unit off (this stops open/close from completing it's cycle) then on again.
Discrete Off is simpler:
DISCRETE OFF
Dev_DVD
open/close
power
