I have 4 macros that I use. The first is to Watch a VCR movie. I always assume the TV is on. The first macro powers on the vcr & reciever and switches the receiver to prologic mode. Disables sound from the tv and uses the Movie advance feature on my Panasonic vhs to que the movie.

My second and third macros are Prologic on and prologic off. This will put the receiver to TV input and turn off the speaker on the TV which gives me line level output from the tv to the reciever. I also have the channel +/- on my remote set to change the tv stations while in reciever mode. I created these macros because my Sony tv requires 8 menu strokes to turn the sound off and go to line output mode on the tv. I can't just mute the sound because then I don't get a constant volume output from the tv and I also have an annoying MUTING on my TV display.

the forth macro is built into my CD device which places the receiver in Stereo mode when the remote switches to the CD.
