1 Source (menu)
80 Replay (i.e. skip backward)
121 Home (was Smart Hub)
139 Source+ (switch through active sources)
185 Play/Pause (toggle)

Picture mode, aspect, zoom discretes do not work. Inputs and power do.

I think that's all for this TV.

Biggest annoyance so far: switching the TV to the input from the receiver makes the TV command the receiver to switch inputs until it finds an active input. Makes a real cluster out of macros with the cable box with no power discretes and is therefore off half the time.

How is it able to do that, you must have them connected in some fashion that allows the TV to talk to the receiver, and if so, can you disconnect that? Or does either device have an option in a setup menu somewhere that you could use to disable that?

Yes, it communicates via the HDMI cable connecting the two, "CEC." The receiver can control the FireStick plugged into it the same way, been doing this for years to IR control the Stick which doesn't have IR.

Disabling eARC and fiddlng the CEC in the receiver seems to have stopped it, while ARC (TV sound to the receiver on the same HDMI cable) still works.
