Ron,

Thank you very much for your time spent on this. I can see now how I can get the TV to the right inputs.

I think I may be able to pull a similar trick on the HTIB. (Yes, I did "learn" the commands for that one) I've noticed there is an IR command (can't remember which one) which forces the unit into AM/FM radio tuner mode. From there, I can do a similar count through the modes to get to the desired one.

If anyone is interested I can post the results.

Thanks again, Ron.

Norton
