I am currently using URC mx 850. Considering buying Harmony 900. I need advice, before buying the harmony.
My system: Lexicon MC12 (no HDMI switching) Audio processor Sony Qualia 004 Projector. X10 IR-543 Infrared X10 Command Console(which converts IR to X10 signals) Monoprice 5X1 HDMI switch. Sources are: Directv DVRs (two of them - so I need to teach harmony alternate set of Directv codes), Panasonic Blue Ray. Xtremer Media center.
My activities are: 1. Typical "watch dvr or bd or Xtremer" 2. I need to be able to turn the lights on/off, using one of the buttons, directly on the remote. 3. I need a sleep timer, which will turn Projector OFF and after a 10 minute delay, turns the Lexicon MC12 off (don't ask why!).
Typically, I am able to do everything (except sleep function) with my current URC mx 850 because I am very familiar with URC programming software. I am familiar with pronto software programming also.. But I am concerned that web based programming of the harmony might not give me enough freedom/control.
Any input for experienced harmony users would be appreciated.
