Can a remote key such as an HDMI hot key be included in the TV Power-on macro so as to automatically activate when the TV in powered on? This is in reference to programming the AVEX R6 Remote Control. Thanks in advance for any help offered.

This remote can learn from other remotes (you aim the two remotes at each other, tell this one to begin reading, then press the button on the other remote), so it does not actually need to know what the other remote even belongs to. I programmed some buttons this way, from remotes that it did not even know about. As long as the other remote is also infrared, it should work fine. I also have this remote turn on/off both my TV and my receiver at the same time with one keypress. It's a little slow (it takes about 2 or 3 seconds to complete the process each time you hit the "system power" button), so you have to make sure to keep the remote aimed at both sources until it's done, but it works fairly well.

The unit is not programed for the remote. They are matched up so loss of power does not affect it. It works right out of the box!

You will need the Remote Control code list that was supplied with your until from Onyko. I no longer have mine as I did not set my unit up to control any other component. Every manufacturer has a specific remote control code for their model unit. I would contact Onkyo customer service at 210 785 2600 and asked them for the code for your make and model tv you are trying to connect to. Sorry that I could be of no further assistance.

I'm having the exact same problem. One thing I have noticed - if the HDMI cable is not connected the "muting on" problem does not happen. For instance, I can listen to the TV audio through my Sony using an optic cable (as long as the HDMI cable is disconnected). But, within 10 seconds of hooking up an HDMI cable (even if I'm not using it) the "muting on" comes on. I can turn it off by hitting the "mute" button on the remote - but it will keep randomly muting itself every 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Aaarrrrggghhh! EDIT: I was able to solve my problem by disabling the "automatic muting" feature. (Who wants THAT?). Here are the instructions from Sony on how to disable the "feature": http://www.kb.sony.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&externalId=C1003157&fes=true

Yes, it immediately turns on when power is applied, regardless of former state. If there is no signal on the (HDMI) input, it will power off within about 30 seconds. When it senses a signal it powered on and remained on unless it was turned off via the pushbutton panel or remote. Works very well and scales signals from 1080i, 720p, WXGA, and others quite well. Some resolutions look sharper than others. I liked 720p the best.

HDMI Cable? I have a Sharp TV but just letting you know if the HDMI cables are hooked on right it should detect when the bluray unit is powered on then powering the tv on or vice versa

There are a button on remote control of BluRay player to do it ?If so, it's possible.Other option it's to find out a discrete code* to do it. To be sure it's necessary to know what is the EXACT model of BR player. So my tip is to you search on web for that info using the model of your BR player.* = Discrete code is a IR code not codified on standard remote control but available for a equipment. An easy example is POWER ON and POWER OFF. Most of remote control just have POWER TOGGLE (press once to turn on and another to turn off). Discrete codes are usefull to create macros to turn something may be already turned on without turn off it!.

I agree with the first two answers. As long as the master outlet the TV is plugged into is powerd, the tv should respond to the tv remote. The slave outlets work only when the master outlet's load is drawing power, meaning the in your case when the tv is turned on.

Brandi...I have one of the first Insignia TV's made, and it would only control the power, volume and channels; it would not work for the other functions. I complained to the manufacturer of the remote, and they admitted that it wouldn't necessarily work on all models. I scolded them for not stating that in their product description. If you do not hear from another owner who has your same TV model, you're taking a gamble. For me it was not an expensive gamble, and I needed a remote that could do at least the bare minimum functions.

I just bought a protable TV with A/V inputs. I have an older single screen Philips PET710 DVD player with a TV out. I brought it home and plugged it in and when you plug the TV out cable in it automatically shuts off the screen on the player. SO now I have to return the TV. There is no way to checnge the sttings it is hardwired into the unit to shut off the base screen. So beware of buying two separate players and trying to hook them up to each other later. Make sure it does not shut off the base unit when hooked up.

Sorry I use this on my raspberry pi openelec xbmc setup. I used it only for a quick second on a android mini TVs (don't use it though) and it work automatically, no setup it just worked. Perhaps it's one of the top buttons around the touchpad?

If your receiver passes-through the HDMI signal, then you don't need to turn the receiver on. Not all receivers do this, however. If yours does, just connect the various components to the switch's inputs, run the output to the receiver and from the receiver to the TV.

It does have a learn function. You have to have the TV on. Push Menu-settings-remote manager -tv code -learn.. Set front of the old remote to the left front side (there's a IR window square) follow the on screen instructions. I have done it, one of my TV's remotes wasn't in the list of remotes. I did get volume and mute to work, but couldn't get the power button to work. Mine was a Proscan TV, it didn't use any of the built in code-sets for Proscan or RCA.

If you have not done so, go on line and get the manual at vizio.com. My remote seems to work fine. I use it to control a separate sound system and the vizio tv. Pressing any key seems to light up all keys for a few seconds. I programmed the remote for the tv teaching it as described in the manual. I programmed the sound system by using codes contained in the sound system manual. Try pushing other keys to see if they light up most or all of the remotes keys. If not get a replcement.

I bought two units because I was told by a friend that the energy consumption is the same as a light bulb. Unfortunately the remote for my flat screen TV controls the ArcticPro along with the TV. Nobody has ever heard of this issue. I'm trying to figure out a way to block the remote signal from entering the units. I'll probably be abducted by aliens next week for changing the volume on their TV.
