Strange issue I think.
I have a 15-1995 remote. If I try to run a macro with discrete on or off it doesn't work. If I keymove that discrete code on a button it works fine. I checked the code when running the macro and it changes from Sony20 to sony/12 with different devices codes. Obviousy this is why it doesnt work in a macro. why would the signal change via a macro vs a key move? _________________ thanks, just4fn |

Reading between the lines, it sounds like you have programmed a macro where the steps are something like ...
SETUP
1
2
3
(where 123 is the EFC of the discrete code)
I'm assuming this is the case because you then go onto describe that programming the EFC to a button works.
Have you tried programming the EFC to a button and then including that button in a macro? If you don't want to "waste" a button for this purpose, why don't you program the EFC to a shifted button or a phantom button? _________________ Rob

Yes, I have tried it with button #1 and it works fine.
it just doesn't work with the discrete phantom button.
I have assigned it the same setup codes and efc's as button #1 but in a macro - nota.
I get it to turn on and off fine using 1 and 2 in the macro. (efc 109,113), I was just wondering if anybody has come across this before- the remote changing the assigned setup code and efc in the discrete function when it is used in a macro.
VCR
1-----turns on (1 is assigned the "discrete on" code)
sony/20 device 26 sub 76, efc 113
VCR
discrete on---nothing
changes to sony/12 device 0, efc 113 or 105
obviously this is why the discrete doesn't work with a different code. but why did it change? Anybody seen this before? _________________ thanks, just4fn |

It's still not clear to me exactly what you are doing from your description, so could you provide an IR file where you show examples of what works and what doesn't. _________________ Rob
