Hopefully someone can help me out with a rather annoying problem that I'm having with my Logitech Harmony 628. Basically what I think I need to do is find a way to delay the input changes so that the device has time to perform the HDMI handshake before switching to the active input. For example, if everything is turned off and I hit "Watch TV" (HDMI1) everyting works great. The same works for "Watch a Movie" (HDMI2). However, if I decide I want to "Watch a Movie" when "Watch TV" was already been initiated the TV won't switch inputs because the HDMI handshake hasn't been completed when the signal was sent to the TV to switch inputs. This results in having to push help and manually switch the input to HDMI2 everytime.

wanted to bump this because I need help with this too on my samsung dlp when
switching activities to watch my toshiba a3 hd dvd player.

Bump

I have the same issue but I have the 720. Hope someone here can help.

Review both activities -> I want to add more control ...

After a few pages, you'll get the Custom Actions page. Set a delay in the TV device in When the activity ends.

The con is that the delay will be there too when switching from hdmi activities to non-hdmi activities, including Power Off

Instead of using the Help button, try selecting "Watch a Movie" again. If HDMI2 is a discrete code, it should send it again.

I guess it doesn't have discrete codes, Help sends them too.

Yes, Help will also send them, but then you have to answer if that fixed the problem. If you just press the Activity button again, it is only one button push.

Yes, I know, my point is that it doesn't matter, looks like rack04 TV has secuential input selection, or he would never have to manually select HDMI2 after the Help button.
