Hi Folks,
This RFX 9400 is driving me crazy!
I am scratching my head on this one! Seems so simple but....
Cable box plugged into IR Port #2. I have the volume, mute hardbuttons within the Cable Device linked to the amp, on a different IR port, #1.
These hardbuttons, when in the cable device, will not make the amp volume work.
However, if you go to the amp device and use the hardbuttons there, with the exact same RC5 code links, the amp responds fine.
It seems like the RFX9400 is not letting the "Link" use a different IR port?
I thought maybe they needed to share the same IR port but that doesn't make sense either. If that was the case, then what would you do with the DVD device hardbuttons since they would share the same volume, mute hardbuttons on the amp.
Any ideas?
Dave

That certainly doesn't sound right Dave. The device which contains the actual IR code is the one which governs how the signal is sent from the remote. The fact that you are linking to said IR code from another device is irrelevant. If you'd like a second opinion regarding the configration file I'd be happy to take a look at it with you. There's got to be something going on. Perhaps a fresh pair of eyes might help. :-P

Is this a learned code or a Database code? It may be worthwhile to email the file to Philips as well.

I set my configuration up as Denon amp on IR1 and DVD on IR2 with the amp volume and mute controlled on the DVD device page hard buttons. Everything worked as it should.
I have each device IR codes page as a separate device and link to them. This is the only place I specify that an extender is used and the IR port needed to be used.

Thanks all. Turns out the client mis-reported this problem. It works as it is supposed to.
thx Dave
