I do not want to spend much time programming or learning how to use a remote. I am being offered a pretty good price on a logitech Harmony 890 so I am wondering what you guys think of it? Is it a good remote? Is it relatively easy to use without having to spend lots of time learning? I want to...
1.) I noticed that when I had the AppleTV connected to the (HDP) HDMI input on the receiver, the receiver would switch modes on its own, make some clicking sounds, and then the on/standby starts flashing red and it stops displaying the AppleTV. Why did it do this? I changed the AppleTV to DVR...

The set that I will be getting in the coming weeks will be 1080p. The current viewing distance is around 14-ft. I will take a look at the links. Thanks!
