    Well, did you get everything down yet? It took me awhile and I went through the FAQ section a couple of times but I have everything working perfectly. My wife loves it, and although the main reason I got it was for her (cough,cough) I wish I would have got one a long time ago.

    I KINDA preach about a unified remote, you dont have a system until you get one,
    most are resistant, but once you live with one for awhile you wonder how you got along without it

    My girlfriends have all eventually said the same thing, me or that D@$#&^
    stereo!
    I sure miss all of them, but no wife, no WAF (waf: Wife Acceptance Factor)
    As for MACS they ARE toys, integrated pieces of crapolla, pretty much like the Harmony remote they are intended for those who don't care to get their hands dirty.
    But at least the Harmony has introduced many to the joys of a unified remote.
    You can sit at your MAC (Macs Are Crap) and "download" whatever the good folks
    at Harmony decide to let you have, I'll keep composing configuration files on my Pronto edit, using the computer I built, a P.C with three hard drives and a lightscribe DVD burner,
    soon to be augmented by a RAID based server with four 500gb drives

    And MACS arent built, they're grown in PODS

    I took you off my ignore list for this?!?!?! First you're kind enough to congratulate me on my purchase, then you almost immediately bad-mouth the product. WTF???

    And... did you mean the GOOD FOLKS AT LOGITECH???

    Time to flip the switch again...

    Sorry Rich, but like peruvians girlfriends everythings relative.
    For the price harmony aint that bad, at least they're introducing more people to the goodness of a universal remote.
    And didn't you know?
    EVERYTHING audio related is directly (or indirectly) owned by Harmon international,
    or soon will be

    I didn't realize that I had a girlfriend...I wonder if my wife knows? Hmmm. Nice attempt at humor though, although it only comes across as childish antics from our resident troll. Apparently you live in your own little world because i'm not the one around here with a bright red glowing reputation, which means no one really takes anything you say as for more than a few wasted...pixels worth.

    In a word: no. Here's my first predicament... I want an activity that only turns my TV and receiver on, sets the TV's input to ANT-1 (which is where my OTA antenna is connected) and allows me to change channels using one button, the same as my TV's remote that I have "favorites" set up on. Also, because of my receiver's digital input limitations, I had to send the TV's digital coax out to the "CD In" on the receiver. How do I make the remote understand where the TV's audio is going and how do I set up my favorite channels so that when I pick the device in that activities components list I'll have a display showing either a Favorites button or all of my Favorite channels with their own corresponding button? Does that make sense? Thanx.

    When you set up your activity it will ask you what input on your reciever you want to use, just tell it CD and you won't have a problem same with the tv,if it did not delete the activity and run it again.If your origional remote had a favorites button you can assign an unused button on Harmony to handle this under customize buttons.
