I've reprogrammed my Zap button to function like pressing the Tivo button twice. The last thing I need to do is make the remote change to navigate mode. Obviously I could do htis myself, but I want this to be done in one step.

How do I program a button to chnages modes on the remote?

Here is my XML-code in one of mine "Change Button Function". This CBF is active in my "Play Menu" in my "Watch a DVD" activity, and send "Menu" IR to my DVD and then enter the "Navigate Menu".

<CONFIGURATOR>
<CONFIGURATORTYPE>SimpleModifier</CONFIGURATORTYPE>
<DATA>
<ADDMENUBINDING>
<TARGETMENU>VirtualDvd_Watch a DVD_ModePlay</TARGETMENU>
<BINDING>
<EVENT>ButtonClick_Zap</EVENT>
<ACTION>
<TARGET>SsInfrared</TARGET>
<OPERATION>SendInfrared DVD_Menu_Press</OPERATION>
</ACTION>
<ACTION>
<TARGET>SsNavigator</TARGET>
<OPERATION>SetMenu VirtualDvd_Watch a DVD_ModeNavigate</OPERATION>
</ACTION>
</BINDING>
</ADDMENUBINDING>
</DATA>
</CONFIGURATOR>

I suppose you find similar code in your "Change Button Function". You chold add the <ACTION> section with SsNavigator. NB: The verbs VirtualDvd_Watch a DVD_ModeNavigate and VirtualDvd_Watch a DVD_ModePlay are built of the name of your activity. I.e: The verbs will be something else in another action or if you have renamed your watch-DVD activity.

Got it?
