OK, I did the test. These results are from a Cinema7.

- LEARN memory is clearly seperate from macro/magic/remap memory.

- I could only learn 16 copies of my DVD POWER button, irregardless of how much macro/magic/remapping I'd done. I suspect you may get more or less depending on how lengthy the IR sequences are. I tried learning BEFORE I'd done any other programming and AFTER. Same result.

- Remapping and using magic codes use the same amount of memory. I got 45 done. 45 all remaps, or 45 all magics, or 45 mixed.
- I could program 12 macros, 15 steps each (total 180 steps) before running out of memory when I had no other keys remapped or magiced.

- 180 is 4x45. I'm deducing any remap or magic key is the same as 4 macro steps. Testing verified this. With 8 keys(8x4=32) magic coded I had 148 macro steps left.

Conclusion... You get 180 units of memory. A macro step takes one unit. A magic key or remapped key takes 4 units.

The SLEEP, SETUP, and DEVICE keys are the only ones that CANNOT learn, be remapped, or given a magic code.

Dave.
