Does this remote have macro capability? Thank you.

I'm not sure if it does or not. The manual doesn't say anything about it so I can't really answer that. But for the price it might be worth a shot. Sorry I couldn't be more help

Unfortunately this remote doesn't have the ability to run macro's it's just a basic remote. You need to move up to a more expensive remote before you will find one capable of running macros.

I just purchased this item and haven't used it yet, but the idea that i might be able to use it outside of gaming validated purchasing it. So to answer your question, IDK, but I was going to try setting up some macros for use in Photoshop or similar apps with stuff like shift+alt+G or whatever.

Hi David, Yes it is possible since one can add macros (combination of keys) and functions to those programmable keys. You can look at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/237179 for further reference. Regards...

yes it does...I have mine programmed with 7 different remotes....remotes must be IR though.

No, it only accepts on key press at a time at a time. There are some games or software where it's quite handy (at replacing those awkward key reaches for crouching, ducking, throwing a grenade, or swapping weapons) there are other games (WASD) where it's not as useful for steerage. It can do dual-key commands, but sadly it does not do macros. It's a niche product and takes a little bit of a learning curve to train yourself to use it. It's a very sturdy product that uses Cherry keys and will likely outlive me, but I do not use it in all situations.

no, it does not. It's a great remote, but all you would be able to do is switch the input.

I got better macro results with Auto Mode.Press the round plastic thumb ring at the 9:00 O'clock position and you will see a choice for Macro Mode, but this choice isn't available in Auto or Easy Modes.

Sorry I don't know the answer to that. The remote has a code scan function detailed in the instructions and you can give it a shot. Best of luck.

Yes - it's still a settable programmable timer. The remote is just for testing your system in manual mode.

Yes, there is a macro function. I've only used it a couple of times, but it works well.

Yes you can. I had the same issue with my tivo remote. You can assign a function to any of the keys. It's been so long since I did mine, I don't remember how exactly, but I know it wasn't difficult. Perhaps the have an 800 support number you can call.

Absolutely. When you program a macro, you tell it when to press and when to release a special key (Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Tab, etc.)

I wish I could give a definitive yes, but I can say most likely. As I recall, this was the generic remote we would recommend when I worked for Philips. Sorry I can't help more!

It has the capability, but you have to buy the remote separately. It is not expensive.

Yes it has a Macro setting and it is easy to find and use. It is at the bottom of the selection dial and depressing the dial at the bottom provided a yes/no choice.Hope this helps.

Yes, it does. It has both an AF Macro and a Macro Zoom function. The latter, I believe, is digital. I've used both and I couldn't really tell the difference in the results between the two, though I never enlarged the images to the max to scrutinize.
