Brad, absolutely. For example, my 'watch DVD' activity turns on the DVD player, turns on the 565, sets the 565 to DVD input, turns on the plasma, goes to the right AV channel on the plasma, and switches the IScan to the DVD video input. All one button.

Logitech are permanently removing that feature, saying that even though it's mentioned in the manual, "It was never meant to be used like that".

Ken and Joel have both expressed a preference for RTI (Remote Technologies Inc). Any particular model?
Thanks

Jezclayton I love the simplicity/power ratio of the T3; Not cheap of course; For less money, the new T2-C has received excellent reviews, although I haven't used that one personally... ken

I use the following equipment to control my kit via RF and RS-232...
-- T-4 control panel -- RP-6 control processor -- RF Antenae -- RS-232 leads
And yes, it is very simple to program with wonderful -- at least to me -- looking templates.

RTI will have 2 way communication in Fall 2007 (written somwehere on the webpage)
But i also read the soaftware only available to authorised dealers. So not for someone who wants to program it without dealer ?

RTI can be programmed by end users...simply find a "friendly" retailer...the 2 way communication will be facilitated through a new control named the XP-8 processor which I will be getting

Looks like I am "Mr. Joe Six Pack". Played with a new Harmony 880 for 2 hrs. I now have 3 remotes in a drawer and the 880 is doing what I want, that is to control my two Meridina black boxes, TV and cable box. When I install motorized drapes, I will buy a clapper.

Joelc,
Any idea on pricing for the XP-8? Also, any chance you could please post a few screen shots of your GUI for the T-4. I'm particularly interested in the RTI, as the only competition I have seen is AMX and Crestron and they both are $$$!!
Cheers,
Chris PS. If you want to email me instead, chris_at_neary_dot_com_dot_au

Chris1971, I do not have web hosting capabilities but will, sometime tomorrow, e-mail you screen shots of my GUI for posting...pricing of the XP-8 is not final but I am told by my dealer around CAD 1,000...pricing of RTI is less than AMX and Crestron...
