This dvd player has been advertized as having discrete IR codes. I would hope that includes power on and off! If I am wrong, please let me know. Thank you.

If there are no discrete ON/OFF functions in any of the files you have found/examined, perhaps you can see if one of the standard workarounds works.

For some DVD players, pressing Play will power it up. In that case, a macro cpnsisting of Play-Stop is a discrete ON, whilst a macro of Play-Power is a discrete OFF.

Alternatively, if OPEN/CLOSE powers it up, the OPEN/CLOSE-OPEN/CLOSE is a Discrete ON, whilst OPEN/CLOSE-POWER is a Discrete OFF.

More alternatively, you may have to use the ToadTog special protocol - requiring use of the extender.

Thank you for the reply, Capn Trips. I will try the standard workaround. Since the URC-9960 does not have customizable lcd and my needs are fairly straightforward (power on and off sequences depending on what video and audio inputs I select), it does not seem worth it to use the extender and ToadTog.
