[Answered] Reporting back - was able to upgrade without reading setup guide

Hi Paul, For some reason I was unaware of the 4.0 release earlier this month. A couple of days I ago I downloaded it, unzipped it, copied it over my existing CMC folder. I then ran CMC , read the notice about CCC replacing CME. I then went to the machine running CME and closed it. Then I ran CCC fro...

Re: Remote to control soundbar, Samsung TV and CMC

Hi Paul, Thanks for testing that out, I'm going to add that to the registry on our HTPC's. I played around with both the punch through and the global volume but I was testing some other tricks the Interset can do at the same time and ending up where nothing was working so I reset it and just haven't...

Re: Remote to control soundbar, Samsung TV and CMC

The Interset is old school but I like the feel of it. I've gotten used to using it to control almost everything. It has that tiny learning curve which is why the other controllers continue to be on the coffee table.

Re: Remote to control soundbar, Samsung TV and CMC

Hi Paul, I have been using it for a couple of months now so I've forgotten off the top of my head how I got the colored buttons working but they are doing the following: 1. Green and Blue launch CMC 2. Red closes program (like Alt-F4) 3. I don't think I programmed the Yellow button Here's how I'm us...

Not sure what that was all about :D - I couldn't get back to it until tonight and it was working perfectly.

Re: Remote to control soundbar, Samsung TV and CMC

I've never used WMC for music. Instead I have several pairs of Edifier R1280T's connected with Chromecast Audios around the house. I cast Google Play Music playlists to them (they play in unison - works just like Sonos at a fraction the price). I actually only use that when we have people over. That...

I added the link to the original post - I was thinking I should do that but I had cut and pasted it into OneNote somehow without the URL - had to go back and find it :D

Re: Remote to control soundbar, Samsung TV and CMC

The Inteset remote doesn't have a mic. I had a little trouble with programming an the "all devices off" macro (it only sort of worked) and found a tip on their forum that explained why. https://intesettech.com/index.php/forum/topic/how-to-set-the-power-button-to-turn-on-off-for-some-all-de...

Re: Remote to control soundbar, Samsung TV and CMC

That was quick - Amazon delivered the Inteset today. I used A (factory default is Apple TV) for the Samsung TV - the first code I tried was correct. The controls mapped well. One thing that's an upgrade from the Samsung TV's remote is when I press menu it jumps right into the Picture menu. The Samsu...

Re: Remote to control soundbar, Samsung TV and CMC

I look at mice and keyboards as wear items. The Logitech ones are well designged and work well until they wear out so they are my go to for that. I don't buy the least or most expensive . Usually go for the $30-40 keyboard/mouse combos. A friend likes the mechanical Cherry MX keyswitch keyboards tha...
