The **OFFICIAL** Denon AVR-XX12 Model Owner's Thread - Page 391

yes, the default assignments from the Harmony software are often incorrect (the up/down arrow thing is a notorious issue, I have no f'ing clue why they would do that with the directional arrows instead of assigning them all to menu up/down/left/right like any logical person would do). A lot of people only worry about their Activities and never think to check the button layout in "device mode", which is why I think a lot of people think that commands are missing.

although I just played around with my Harmony account and added an xx12 model and it indeed is missing the "CH LEVEL" button as jconjason remembered. A also added an xx11 model and the CH LEVEL command was there, so it looks like Logitech just screwed that one up. If a few people write or call into their support to complain about the missing command I bet it will reappear (or at least be fixed for xx13 models).

the only way to get them is to ask Harmony tech support to transfer them into your account for you. But they have been growing progressively more reluctant to support these kind of "hacks".

note that my code database should only be viewed as a SUPPLEMENT to the default code set that will load automatically with the device in the Harmony software. All of the primary commands from the factory remote will load automatically, so my account should just be viewed as a repository of potentially helpful "extras".

I would NOT recommend that anyone with an xx11 or xx12 (or newer) model start with my codes as the default layout, several codes have changed (especially input names and surround modes like the Music/Game/Movie buttons replacing the "standard" button) and the default Harmony layout will be the superior choice as a starting point.

You have the advantage of also having your 889 remote so you can probably get a few "extras" from that old remote that may not be on the remote anymore. You might want to spend some time with the 889 remote and the new 2312 and see what happens. You can also just keep your old device profile for the 889 that's already loaded for the 2312 and just spend a bit of time "teaching" it any new commands it needs (input discretes, the new music/movie/game surround buttons, etc). My Denon AVR device is an still an AVR-2105!! Rather than delete and reload all my crap when I swapped receivers (meaning more laborious re-setup of my Activities) I just kept the old device profile and made tweaks when necessary to keep it working... the result being I've "grandfathered" in many fun commands from older units as they've accumulated.

amp assign has absolutely nothing to do with channel levels. you want to pick the setting you are going to use and then run Audyssey and it will calibrate everything.

"normal" is for a 7.1 setup although you can certainly use it for 5.1. Most of the time we suggest "zone 2" for a 5.1 setup so you can use the 2 amps for something else.

My assumption is that you left it on the default "zone 2" setting when you ran auto setup, and then when you switch to "normal" Audyssey is turned off (it forces you to re-run when you "add" new speakers), and that's why you are hearing the change in speaker volume.

no

good detective work busting out the manual and diving into the OPTIONS menu (a lot further than most get before they post here!) but you are changing the wrong setting it's not the Screensaver but rather the NET/USB screen display time that you want (see pg 96).
