Existing MRF350, added MX990, all's well.

After the 990 sleeps, wake it up, and DirecTV LIST doesn't bring up the DVR list. Also, going to the blu-ray, the EJECT command does not work.

DirecTV code 173, Samsung code 352. RF ID 0B.

Odd thing, that button press lights the RF activity LED, but the emitter does not flash. Press PAUSE or some other button on DirecTV, it works, then the LIST button works again. RF LED lights, emitter flashes, life is good again.

What is the deal here?

Seem to recall a similar issue with directv and an MX-990 (although I can't recall what the MRF we were using)

I'm pretty sure we learned the offending commands into the remote, rather than using the canned ones. Problem solved.

My handle is Tweety but I have nothing to do with the organization of similar name. I just had a really big head as a child so folks called me tweety bird.

In the case of DirecTV, 173 has been used for 15 or 20 years! Then, keep in mind that once another button is pressed, the list button works over and over and over and over again, I don't know how the command could be defective. Can you explain what you think is happening, why I might be dealing with a faulty code?

Lacking anything else, I increased repeats yesterday. Waiting to hear from client.

I know in the beginning URC has some issues with the IR implementation for Crestron. Maybe there's something wonky that's affecting DTV.
