The remote for my Denon 3200 receiver is a learning remote that also has the ability to store 2 macros. I have a macro set up to turn on my VCR, Denon, and TV. This makes it easy for my wife or kids with a single keystroke to watch TV with surround sound.

The problem is that most electronic components use the same IR command to turn off and on a component. For example, if my Denon is already on from listening to a CD and one of my kids hits the macro button, the TV and VCR go on but the Denon goes off.

I know that a system like the Crestron has the ability to sense if an electronic product is on and if it is, it will not turn it off with a macro, if that piece of equipment needs to be on. Of course the Crestron is $2,000.

Is there any way to get a product like the Pronto to do this? I am guessing the answer is no, but it cannot hurt to ask.

Thanks
