I need help getting the remote (MX850) to send an IR command for more than a split second. I've done about 30 searches to no avail, looked through the 75 page manual and Googled it, so I'm sorry if you guys have talked about this at nausium.

I used to have the 200 & I know there was a way to program it in with the old remote based programming, I have to assume the 850 can handle it.

I'm having no problem setting up the devices, buttons and macros, but I can't seem to get this thing to work my receiver. I have an older Philips which requires me to hold down a button to switch devices. i.e... I have to hold down the DVD button to get the receiver to switch to the DVD input.. about .5 second. If in stand by, it will turn the unit on to that input by holding it down. I'm sure there is a thread on here with exactly the information I need, but I can't seem to find it.

I would love any help... and is there still a 'remote based' programming available on the 850?.. Hold down Main and OK I think was what worked on the 200, I haven't been able to figure it out on the 850.

Thanks in advance.
