Brand new TV for 2016. Control is Savant. I wanted to use IP as the B series TVs worked great on the network in the past. Instead I've resorted to IR and need all three HD inputs - HDMI 1 and 2 plus component.

I've tried a handful of profiles, power on/off and hdmi 1/2 all work fine but I can not find one that will give me the component video input. I found a code that will get me VIDEO 1 but no VIDEO 2. Apparently these Sony TVs classifies VIDEO 2 as a separate input. The input is a combo composite/component input so the jacks look like this:

Yellow/green - composite video or component Y
Blue - component Pb
Red - component Pr
White - left audio
Red - right audio

Pressing the INPUT button on the factory remote steps through Video 1(composite video) Video 2(component video) HDMI 1 HDMI 2 screenshare and TV

No menu setting to select video 1 composite/component

I thought I'd post here to see if anyone has a quick answer to this or knows where I can find an IR code. I have a plan B but it involves changing the hookup and adding an HDMI switcher which may be cheaper in the end versus throwing a bunch of time at tracking down an IR code.

TIA

Not sure what Savant can import, but have you tried the various codes here: [Link: files.remotecentral.com]

Look under LCD and Televisions.

Thanks Daniel. I haven't tried anything from this site yet. I can learn codes into Savant as well as copy/paste hex. Still hoping someone will post with more of an absolute find or fix.

I'm picking up a MX850 from a fellow integrator this afternoon so I can try the URC code database too.

Last time I used the URC database for the X850B proved useless. Well, the Video 1 and Video 2 codes worked (but they're the ones that have existed for like 30 years), but *none* of the HDMI codes were functional.
