Thank you. My biggest problems right now are with the TiVo, a Roamio model.

Repeat rate for Xsight/Nevo

I'm using a Nevo C2 remote and loving it. Recently I've noticed double-actions when pressing buttons. In some JP1 remotes (extenders?) I've seen the ability to configure repeat or hold times for the buttons, and I'm hoping that there is such a thing for this remote, but I haven't been able to find ...

Soft button macro name

If I create a macro and assign it to a soft button, it works as expected. The name of the macro displays on the soft button. If I rename the macro, the soft button keeps the original name. If I delete the macro and re-create it with a new name, then the soft button gets this new name.

Maximum activities?

I have 13 activities set up in RM. When I upload this data to the remote, only the first twelve show. Is this expected?

If I load this configuration into the ez-rc site, it says "You currently have 13 Activities set up. You can select Add, Modify or Delete Activities below.", but the "add" button ...

Interesting! No I didn't quite get that at first. I'm switching to RCA remotes with a new USB cable for 1.x soon; I might rebuild them from scratch with a scheme like that. Thanks again.

Thanks for all the input.

As of right now, I'm not under memory pressure, and being able to remember that "Shift-X sets input to the X" is a lot easier than "L1 sets input to the X", times a bunch across the receiver and TV's inputs. Makes working with the macros and what not easier. If I get to ...

> What a poor excuse for not using learning

What that statement means is that I can't learn into _that_ configuration. I did indeed reset to default and do learning to discover the fact that the code I wanted was 92+192 (none of the master lists I've found so fare are new enough to have the "BD ...

Pioneer 2dev/3dev buttons

I'm trying to set up my Pioneer receiver. I learned some codes and spent a while getting _most_ of it working. I uploaded both the learned data and my full config: http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload.php?action=file&file_id=10007

I figured 2dev makes sense, because I see usually one, sometimes ...

Which JP1 remote should I get? And where/how?

I picked up a pair of URC-8910's here a few years ago, and built my own (parallel) cable. I love them. But one has developed a serious rattle (something, the mic for phone upgrades I think, is loose in there) and I no longer have a working computer with a parallel port.

So I'm looking to get a new ...

*facepalm* Of course! Thanks, it's been just a little bit too long since I had to tweak my remotes. Works perfect.

(solved) Problem adding new device, GE A/C

I've had a pair of 8910's for a few years now. I've even created devices (to easily add lots of functions not in the standard device setting) before. I just got a new air conditioner with a remote.

First, I learned all its (eight) buttons. Created a new device with keymap master ("home automation ...

Thanks for the suggestions. I've been playing with the combiner protocol. It's not quite perfect yet but it's definitely better.

Extender makes macroed signals too fast to be recognized

I've got a 8910, with extender installed. The readme for the extender has a section titled "fast macros" which says "I reduced both the hold time and the delay time for commands in a macro."

Long story short: keys in macros are not recognized by my DVD player. If I keep pressing the button, it will ...
