Certain harmony buttons can't be programmed (Activities,
Devices, Help, Off, Media).

I'd like to know how you handle input selection where
you have to cycle through a list of inputs to get to the
right one, and the number of inputs that you need to cycle
through changes depending on where you were previously.

The harmony figures this out automatically and dynamically
adjusts the input steps as needed. With other remotes
you have to program this into state memory or have separate
macros for every possible permutation.

the work around for that situation would be to use an ANTENNA "A" or ANTENNA "B" as the starting point for the macro so it is always the same amount of commands to get to said input. keep in mind those who spend big $$$ on there remotes usually also spend big $$$ on their TV, so this wouldnt be an issue, as any decent TV has discrete input commands. (no offence if you love your TV and dont have discrete commands)
