Even if you switch to, say, tuner and then back to DVD?

Yeah it stays on the last signal select regardless of what I do, as far as I can tell. I just tried cycling through all the inputs with dvd on 7.1 and it stayed, so I changed it to auto and cycled through again and it stayed on auto.

Thanks for the ideas hopefully we'll figure out something.

That's a drag. Are the digital inputs on the 812 assignable?

Yeah they are, I am out of them I think though. I had it set up to use CD-R for DVD movies and DVD 7.1 for the DVD Audio but I had to do some changes with my new cable box, and I can't quite remember why now but I had to get rid of using two different inputs for the dvd player.

So, can you use a different input, like CD, for the 7.1 channel input and leave DVD for the "auto"? I know you said above that you don't remember why you had to get rid of using two inputs, but give it a try.

I can only use dvd for the analog 7.1 and the problem is I got a new cable box and with it I ran out of selections for digital inputs, I can double check that I didn't miss one, oh the other problem is I am using the receiver as a switch box for component video, so only like 2 or 3 inputs allow component video and digital audio, it made my choices very limited. I will write it all down later and maybe I can figure something out or at least post the options.

Ummm... you don't need video for SACD and the multi-channel out...

But you do for DVD. If the 812 is like my 850, the two component video inputs are not assignable, and are tied to the Sat/TV input and the DVD input.

Is there any way to not have to use the receiver for video switching?

For DVD-Audio you need multi-channel and I don't have a SACD player yet. Well unless I buying something else that can do component switching it is needed. I use component for the DVD-player and the digital cable box. Saying this reminded me of my problem. Which I think you guys figured out but I will say anyways. Before I got the new cable box I only had one component device so I didn't have it going through the receiver so I could use two receiver inputs and still have the same video on the tv. I might be able to do the same thing now if I used S-video or component for the multi-channel audio since video isn't really that important. That would require changing my setup buying cables and changing the remore layout again. Lots more complicated than what I hoped in finding a way to get straight to the correct digital or analog inputs. I think I would rather wait a while and buy a new receiver that has discretes for what I want.

Sorry for the long rambiling post, I am tired.

Hi Guys

I have a Pioneer VSX-D2011 which has a button on the remote to switch to analouge 5.1 input. Is this what you are after? if so try this code

On my 850, it toggles between DVD and DVD 7.1 analog. I'm curious to see what it does with Crowbar's 812, as 7.1 analog is not set up as a seperate input on the 812.

Unless I am doing something very wrong it does nothing. Only a few of the discretes listed work for me. Do they power on to device codes listed work for you guys?

Bummer, I was hoping that the above code could at least be used as an anchor, but I didn't have much hope as it toggles between the seperate inputs. Fortunately, for me, all of the discretes listed here work.

Right now, I'm out of ideas. If I come up with something, I'll post it.

Thank you so much for your ideas and help. For now the interrupt screen works, it is just not ideal.
