I set my MX-900 up totally differently. The first page
of each video device duplicates the first page of the
Watch screen, ditto for audio devices and the Listen screen.
That way the interface on the screen is consistent for
novice users who don't need to be confused by all the
obscure stuff (that is on pages 2+ of the devices). When
they want to switch devices its always right there on
page 1. For myself, if I want to just switch to a device
page, I press Watch (or Listen) then go to page 2 where
I have some "switch to device page" commands for devices
which only I would ever want to go to (eg AMP and TV SET).
I don't really have a need to switch to, for instance,
the CABLE device page, without also switching the input
on my amp but if I do, I can always cover the IR port
with my hand!
Why don't you use the "Before/After" on that button so you can issue a 1 second press and hold macro that goes to that device's page? For example, a single button press would execute a macro that turns all of your source components on and switches them to the proper inputs. A "Press and Hold" on the same button would not do anything except go to the device page for whatever devcie you wanted it to go to.
