Have done the upgrade as suggested ...What do you mean by Turning off local
exstreamer actioning of the remote control....How are you suppose to
control
the exstreamer with the remote..??? Currently i have saved some of the
exstreamer ir codes in HV and when it receives any of these it sends them
out to zone 8 (node 0) direct to the exstreamer....Doesnt seem to be
working
....Im getting trig messages in the Monitor with the ir data.......
