Has anyone worked with one of the 2014-15 Vizios and had the displeasure of trying to setup activities (URC) for Netflix within the TV along with other stuff on HDMI inputs?

While the HDMI discrete codes work fine, once you have Netflix running there is no way to "break out" short of sending "Exit" and then "right arrow, enter". This makes URC programming at least kind of a pain (unless there is some way to run an "on exit" type macro with CCP that I'm not aware of; otherwise it will require variable state tracking and a pre-macro before all other activities to correctly kill off Netflix in case it was running previously).

Don't believe me, try it yourself. Launch Netflix on the TV, and then try sending a discrete command for one of the HDMI inputs, or really any input. It goes nowhere. If you use the input toggle command, THAT will break out, but that's another headache too.

Screw you for having poorly implemented discretes, Vizio.
