![]() ![]() The Media Center remote has a TV power button on it that is programmable. I want to be able to turn the receiver and TV on and off together, because I don't want to leave this new receiver on 24/7. This may have had something to do with it's early demise. To eliminate wife frustration, my old Pioneer receiver has just been left on 24/7. Because you can't see the receiver, it is not easy to know whether it is on or off without trying to play something and seeing if you get sound. I set up a Harmony remote before, but my wife did not like it and to keep her happy we just use the Media Center remote. To make my wife happy, we only have one remote and it is the Microsoft Media Center remote because we just use our home theater PC for all TV and movie watching. I have an IR repeater system in place to control things with. To elaborate on my setup a little, all of my components for my home theater system are in my basement. What I want to do, is to be able to press one button on my remote to turn on both my TV and receiver at the same time, and to also have them turn off together. I just got a shiny new (used) Arcam AVR300 receiver to replace my old Pioneer receiver that is failing. ![]()
