How do I get my Harmony Remote to stop putting Tivo in Standby?

[Mark W]

Hi folks, I hope this is a simple question. When I hit off in the Watch Tivo activity, it puts the Tivo in standby. I guess this is a standard thing. How do I get it to stop doing that?

You have to change this on the harmony website. I can't remember what it is under but something along the lines of -- I want to keep my tivo on all the time-- or something like that. Hope this helps.

Click "Troubleshoot" in the actvity square on the home page. Then just answer the questions until you have it the way you want it. Just unclick the command to turn "off" the TiVo when you hit the off button.

BTW, it doesn't hurt to put it in standby. It still records just the same.

But the buffers are empty when you wake it up.

Thanks for the help, I got it fixed. Anybody know if there is a way to reorder how the activities show up in the More Activities list?

There is no way to reorder the activities.

On a side note, anyone know how to increase the repeat delay for the buttons? In other words, when I hit the up arrow, it starts repeating almost immediately, and I find myself 3 rows up when I want to only move up one.

It's funny, I really like the remote, I love the size and the feel, and the activity based programming, the help button, etc. I am really surprised though at it's lack of ability to do macros, and the inability to customize things more easily. An example is the order of the LED buttons. They seem to go in order of device first, then the order you enter them in the software. Why, why, why does it have to order by device?

I agree. It's the only suitable replacement for the peanut, IMHO. However, the ability to create some macros would be nice. As for the ordering by device- I removed all non-Tivo related commands from my 'Watch TV' mode because it always put them first, and I had to navigate through multiple 'Next' screens to get to things like the Live TV and TiVo command. I wanted to have those buttons on the first screen.
