Is there any way to reorder the exact order commands are executed in an activity? I am having a specific problem and I think reordering two of the commands will fix this problem.

If there is no way to reorder the commands, then can someone tell me how to solve this problem. I have a Sony LCD, cheap dvd player and a SA 8300HD. When switching back and forth between "Watch DVD" and "Watch TV" activity, the Sony LCD refuses to switch to the correct input setting for the Watch TV command. It works perfect switching the input for the watch dvd activity every time but not the watch tv.

Further more, if the last activity I was watching was the dvd and I shut the system down, then hit the watch TV activity, the input setting switches perfectly. The specific problem lies when going directly from the watch dvd to the watch tv.

I figure something is getting crossed with the signals sent for the cable box and the tv. If I could reorder the input commands for these two devices, I think this problem would clear up.

Any ideas? I have played with the different inter device delays for all devices involved and nothing has worked.

In your macro list, simply click and hold on a line a drag it up or down to the new spot, and then click on the little Save icon.

Simple as that. Sometimes even a very short time delay is needed to allow whatever device to get to a certain point before it will accept the next IR code.

I hope this helps.

Just click and drag to whatever order you like. Just remember to save the macro.

Let us know if it works.

Oops, my fault. I am using the Harmony 720. I posted in the wrong section.
