Reset Simple Timer

[eruji]

How do i reset the simple timer with any key press from my remote. I would like to basically have the simple timer always running up to say 2 hours so that i can shut off my tv and receiver if there is no activity from the remote for 2 hours. I see the "On Any Event" Event String, but how do i limit it to only events that are captured by my USBUIRT?

You would create a simple timer action with the amount of time entered, nothing "on start" and the TV off macro/action for the "on end", then you attach the events for every button on your remote to that action.
Everytime you press a button the timer will restart. I don't think that there are wildcards for the events of the remotes.

Also, make sure that you disable that command when the TV is turned off, and Enable it when you turn it on.

Great thanks for you help, i was hoping there was a wildcard or a IR receive group that would trigger it, but putting all the remote codes individually wouldnt be that difficult.

Did you know that you can drag the event from the logger to the action and attach it?

Nope, didnt know that. I wish i could just drag the outputs from the event mapper.

Thanks for all of your help
