Option 3 sounds like something that might work for me. I have a Comcast HD DVR, and the remote is able to learn macros. So I've created a macro for the guide button so that it actually clicks menu - enter - enter (3 clicks) so that it automatically displays one of my personal guides (favorites) instead of the guide with all channels.
Can I then use the IR learning feature of the Harmony to learn this series of commands from the Comcast remote?

1) Activity Start/End macros
The newer Harmony remote models support only the Activity
Start/End macros (sequence of commands).
Run the activity setup wizard again and when it shows
the "Review the settings for this Activity", select "Yes,
but I want to add more control of options and devices
for this Activity". It will go through the setup again,
but this time, it will give you the opportunity to add
sequences of commands (macros) to run at Activity start
and Activity end.
2) Pseudo Mini Macros
In activity mode, when a button is pressed, all the commands
for all the devices on that row are sent. The sequence
is usually from the left to right device.
3) Learning a Macro using the "Learn IR command" feature
If you have another learning remote, you can create a
macro with it, then teach it as a single command name
using the device "Learn IR command" feature in RAW mode.
