Your right AC. That does add up to 16. On the last command just drop the channel number. That's what I am using anyway. However, if your macro is shorter then mine, add channel for your convenience.

I boot up my TV first because it takes so long to come on line. Also,that's the reason for the delays. Otherwise, the TV won't receive the Video-1 signal. TV is sony 32xbr250.
Thanks for your inputs.
