I’m note sure where I should post this so sorry if this isn’t it. I’m using a MX-700 and a Yamaha RX-V1400 receiver and can’t get two things to work. 1.I can’t get a macro, or just manually doing this from the remote, to change the input used on the receiver. I need to mess around with the original remote that it came with to see if I’m missing something. 2.I can’t get a macro to work that will change to the correct sound field. Such as Sur. Sound when watching movies and 2 channel stereo when listed to music. The way Yamaha’s remote does this is when you select the stereo button as a sound field it scrolls between three, 2 channel stereo, 7 channel or direct depending on the number on times you select it. On the MX-700 what I tried to do is have a macro go to another sound field like Hall first and then back to stereo. What it appears to be doing is remembering what sound field it was using last in the Stereo mode. The thought here was then I’d have a starting point for Stereo and would know how many times I’d need to select it to get the right one.
Does this make sense? Any suggestions? Right now what I did was just added a few FAV items so I can get to these options quickly and from any menu but I’d like to macro this so anyone can watch a movie or listen to music easily.
