Thanks, William. Any idea where to get a programmable remote?

The problem, Guv Bob, is not so much in the remote control, but in the
unit's firmware, which requires such confusing operation. Many products are
designed with no concern whatever as to how people actually use them.

The only thing I can suggest is to buy a remote control that can be
programmed with IR sequences from your existing remote, AND supports macros.
You should then be able to create one-button commands.



Believe it or not, I've found them more often in 'outlet' or 'job lot'
stores than anywhere else.
