Its such a wierd thing, but my TV skips all sources that are not connected and the current source when connected (unless the current source is antenna).
Because of the weird pattern of the source button, which skips the devices that are not connected and skips the current source unless its antenna whenever I press macro1 toggles between TV and DVD. Pressing macro2 toggles between Satelite and VCR.
macro1 = TV, tv/vcr, down, down, enter, T_DVD
macro2 = x_tv, tv/vcr, up, up, up, enter,x_cancel, T_VCR, SAT
Its clumsy but because we are normally toggling from Sat to antenna, its ususually press Macro1 for tv, press Macro2 for Sat. I've been toying with using 2 toad togs to choose the correct M_, C_, O_ channels because I have been doing a lot of DVD recording lately. But that's low on my priorities. After moving to the extender this executes fast as lightning
I needed totally different macros different numbers of devices.
