Volume buttons on the remote control will normally cause the volume of the selected device to raise or lower. Often perfect, but sometimes very inconvenient. To better this situation you can setup special Volume Control for devices, also known as Volume Punch-through. This will allow the user to see all of the functions for the device selected on the remote control, but control the volume commands of another device when they press the volume up, volume down, or mute button.
Volume Punch-through is extremely helpful when the user is engaging in an activity such as watching a Blu-Ray movie on TV, with sound that is coming from a separate device such as a surround sound amplifier.
To begin, click on Setup volume control for devices.
1. First, choose the device that the user will be operating while they require volume punch-through.
2. Then choose the device which actually controls the sound volume from the list of available devices.
Click Finish and the volume punch-through setup is complete!
