Limitations

As you can see is number of commands is quite limited. It was designed to allow some other Onkyo hardware to control. On tested amplituners you can only switch between two video (DVD and one of video inputs marked in manual) and two audio inputs. Additionally you can switch input to HDD, CDR or MD, but this can be done only by assigning switchable video input and there is no way around that.
