I've got my MX-700 remote programmed with every Tivo code from 1 thru 9. I had to teach the commands to the MX-700 since most remotes only have the basic (0) code in their library. I do a lot of Tivo upgrades and like to temporarily assign codes to the ones I'm working on so they don't interfere with the four Tivos I have active on my system, which is why I programmed all of the codesets in my universal remote.
2 HR10-250s with third party remotes
I have two HR10-250s, and after reading the HR10-250 manual (shame on me!), I have successfully programmed each receiver to recognize its own peanut remote (there are eight possible settings and I changed the remote setting on one HR10-250 from zero and set it to 1 and I changed the remote setting on the other HR10-250 from zero and set it to 2). This fix does not work with my two third party remotes (an old Phillips Pronto and an MX-700), and when I use either one, it sends codes to both receivers and both receivers respond.
From what I have been able to tell here and on RemoteCentral, the two receivers must still respond to both zero and their set number, and the third party remotes must be on zero. Is there a way to change the third party remotes and not send on zero? I intend to set up separate devices on each remote for the two HR10s, but unless I can get each third party remote not to send to "the other" receiver, this won't work.
Any suggestions or workarounds?
Thanks.

It's been a while since I programmed any codes into my MX-700 but I taught all of the Tivo codes to the remote manually using the original Tivo peanut remote. I just changed the codeset designation on the Tivo remote for each of the nine codesets and transmitted each button press to the MX-700.
