Hey Jim,
I have to be honest and I say that I don't understand your question. I was talking about One For All or Radio Shack brand remotes, not Philips, and I didn't say anything about macros.

That being said, you are in luck because the REM400 is actually made by the same company that makes OFA and RS remotes, so you can program the missing functions using advanced codes.

As this won't be mentioned in the Philips manual at all, you should print a copy of the 15-1994 manual from my site, at [Link: hifi-remote.com] , as most of it applies to the REM400.

All the setup codes used by the REM400 are 29 numbers higher than regular Radio Shack codes, so when you go looking for advanced codes on my site, you should deduct 29 from the setup code you are using. For example, if you are using VCR/0269, the Radio Shack equivelent is VCR/0240.

I realise that the concept of advanced codes is probably new to you, so you should read up on them on my site.

Rob.
