For about the last year (I think?) I've been using a non-JP1 remote as the main remote because it had so many buttons and had learning. (Kenwood R0813) My wife put up with it and it had a good feel in the hands.
Recently, we've decided to dump satellite (and TiVo along with it) and use only Replay. That puts us in the (un)enviable position of having a RTV5K and RTV3K unit in the same room. I've tried explaining power toggling to my wife, but it confuses her to have the TV switch to an input that is blank.
Where this all leads is to hope I can have my hand held in setting up the RTV5K remote as our main remote. My wife said she was tired of having so many buttons on the remote and I saw that the 5K remote had a JP1 connector. It only has two device buttons, but I saw that there exists an extender to allow more devices. For simplicity's sake, I think I'll only put the TV and both Replays on the remote. (The DVD, VCR and receiver will remain only on the Kenwood.......for now.)
Basically, what I'm asking for is how to set up the key moves and macros in IR4.02 (using the R5K extended RDF) so that I end up with a SIMPLE keypress to select which Replay. (Something like "ReplayTV" + "1") for the 3K and "ReplayTV" + "2" for the 5K) I didn't see that TOADTogs were available in the R5K extender, since that would be the be best way to have the remote know which Replay was being viewed. (TV input cycle: TV -> SVid1 -> SVid2 -> TV...)
VPT is a given.
TV is RCA (code 0047)
As a proud geek, I should be ashamed
for asking for this help, but she's asked repeatedly why I'm spending so much time on the computer today. (I've been researching how-to.)Thanks.
