Here is what I've done. I've taken the Std vol + and added 20 additional copies of the last 4 words (21 copies of the word total).
The 1st way means red becomes 004A and blue stays 0002.
The 2nd way means red stays 0022 and blue becomes 002A.
Both of these codes still only change the volume up by 1 db.
I don't understand why it behaves that way. 20 extra copies is enough that I'm pretty sure the device would go up more than two vol steps. My best guess is that the MX editor somehow recognizes a repeating pattern and removes the excess when you import Pronto Hex, so it doesn't really send what the Pronto Hex says to send.
If you do have time to experiment more, maybe changing the delay value (the 0E47 on the end of each repeat) would help. Maybe making it much larger (maybe about 1C00) will get more vol change with fewer repeats. Maybe making it much smaller (maybe 0700) might make the MX remote send more repeats in a macro. Maybe making it moderately different across copies (0C00, 0E00, 1000, etc.) in a non repeating pattern, would stop the pattern recognition that the MX editor might be doing that might be the reason adding copies didn't help.
For example:
0000 006D 0032 0002 0155 00AA 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 05ED 0155 0055 0015 0C00 0155 0055 0015 0E00 0155 0055 0015 0C00 0155 0055 0015 1000 0155 0055 0015 0C00 0155 0055 0015 1000 0155 0055 0015 0E00 0155 0055 0015 0C00 0155 0055 0015 0E00
I'm pretty much guessing. There are too many unknowns interacting for a systematic approach.
