I can see where having discrete codes for on and
off would be useful in a macro, but do all devices
have a discrete on/off?
No, some are Toads
I know that my VCR, HTIB recevier and cable box all |have a single on/off| button on their associated |remotes. Does this
mean I cannot use discrete codes for on and off?
Mike
Two seperate oem remote buttons for on and off confirms that they DO, However, just a single power button doesn't automatically mean that the device doesn't have discrete power command in it's firmware. It's a brand/model case by case thing.
The discrete fanatics hang out in the discrete hunter forum, You mite be able to find out about some of your devices by posting brand/model there. With the little information you provided in your question we really can't tell you if any of your devices support discretes.
