OK, I've managed to track what's preventing it working.
I have two devices connected by RS232 serial connectors.
Pulling the connectors from the rear of the RFX9600 and
the minijack works?????
Anyone seen anything like this?
Cheers, Lee
Yes, I've seen this exact thing - just last week!
I originally had my Denon Amp & DVD player using a mono 3.5mm cable daisy-chained from an IR port (RFX9600 --> DVD --> AMP). I then wanted to move on to using serial for the Amp, but keep the DVD using the hardwired IR. I could not get the DVD to work with hardwired IR while the amp was connected to the serial port (the amp and DVD were no longer daisy-chained - only the DVD was using hardwired IR). My testing showed that unplugging the serial connection allowed the DVD to work with hardwired IR, but while plugged in it would not. I really wanted to use the serial connection for the amp so I just resolved to use an emitter on the DVD player.
This appears to be some kind of a hardware bug in the RFX9600 to me.
