I found some very valuable information in this thread which allows me to use my Directv remote (RC66X) to control the volume on my Yamaha RX-V773WA A/V receiver (RAV475/ZA23850). However, I'm not sure I fully understand the following:
"With yamahas use of two key power scheme, one key for ON and another for OFF, you won't find a single code in the directv remote that does both, sorry."
My confusion is that while my Yamaha remote has 2 power keys, one is for source and the other is for the receiver. The receiver power key turns the Yamaha on and off.
With the remotes I listed in my opening, is it possible to program the Directv remote to turn the Yamaha on and off and control volume & mute?
Thanks - Jeff
No, even though the newer receivers have a single power key, Yamaha didn't pick IR code known to older remotes, this new command isn't in ANY directv remote. Again yamaha's fault.
