Right now I am setting up my Watch-TV activity. I would like to build one page, showing all TV-channel icons. When clicking an icon, the IR-sequence shall be send (like digit 1 + Cursor_Enter or sending two digits and maybe a delay is needed in-between as well).
How can I get this done? So far I can only assign one single IR command.
Often IR entities have the command “command sequence” this is what you are looking for.
If your entity does not have the sequence a Macro will be the solution.

How do I assign a macro or a sequence?
For command sequence it looks like digit_1,digit_2
A macro must be created in activities were you must add the needed entities and the simply add all commands you need to the sequence. This is then an entity you must add to the activity where you need it then you can use it as a normal command.

Thanks a lot. That helped a lot. It is of course a lot of effort biuilding the macros and then assigning them to the activity, …
Yes you can😁 I did it around 80 times it is long and boring work but the result with channel picon is it worth

What entity are you using for changing channels? As mentioned by @HarmonyFan there is a chance that there is a better way than creating tons of macros. I am using a Sky cable receiver and the Sky Q integration allows for direct access to channels. IR entities often offer command sequences where you can send multiple commands in one go.
I am using a Technisat Technistar K4 Isio.
I do not know if there is any other way to connect to.
Are you using infrared to control the receiver?
Yes, I trained my Remote3 with the original Receiver Remote-Control (via IR).
