Hi, looking for some help. Long time pronto user and just added an Echostar HDS-600RS freesat HD PVR to my setup. So I've had to add the unit to my pronto and I decided to update all my channel macros to the freesat box channel numbers.

If I create a macro for BBC1 which is channel 101, then 1, delay, 0, delay 1 works a treat.

Now any macro I create that has the same number in twice such as 119 doesn't work. I get 1 and 9 displayed on the TV screen, so the second 1 is missing. This is regardless of the size of delay I put into the macro.

So for example 1, delay, 1, delay 9 doesn't work at all.

I suspect maybe the remote is a toggle device (possibly) and consecutive presses of the remote generate different variations, but in a macro I'm sending the same code twice, could this be the case. Any help would be appreciated.

Here is the code for the number 1 button press

0000 006D 0044 0022 0155 00AB 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 05D5 0155 00AB 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 05D5 0155 00AB 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0015 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 05D5

It's been a while since I've done any pronto programming, so just read the FAQ on toads/toggles and it was as I thought. I had already fixed an issue of selecting one macro ending in xx1 and another starting in 1xx by adding an OK command to the end of each macro. so now I send 1, delay, 0, delay, 1 OK and similar for each macro.

The ones with repeating number in I have added a null button, it seems my green button doesn't do anything during a macro.

So the macro "1, delay, green button, delay, 1, delay, 9, OK" works a treat.
