I use two remotes to record SAT TV shows onto DVD. I use the SAT remote to jump past the adverts and the like, and I use the DVD remote to pause while jogging/pausing the SAT feed.

The question is, will a macro capable remote allow me to link these two functions. Perhaps I create an activity called "SAT to DVD" and in doing so it allows me to pause the DVD with one button, then jog the SAT and unpause the DVD when I get to the right place. I would still also possibly need to pause both DVD and SAT at the same time?

Is that the kind of function macros can provide?
