HD200 Auto-Connect Time
Is there a way to change the amount of time the HD200 waits to auto-connect?
I use a harmony remote and by the time I actually get a picture on the TV, the HD200 has already auto-connected. |

There is no setting that controls how long to wait before auto-connecting; no guarantees whether that will change in the future.

Maybe I can reorder my devices on my harmony remote and put a pause in there to give the TV a chance to bring up the picture before the HD200 connects.

That's going to be your best solution.

Update: While doing some other changes, we decided to add a configurable time for the auto connect timeout. You should be able to try it in the next firmware update.

There is (potentially) another option.
Disable auto connect, then just use the Home button to power on the extender instead of power. If you were in extender mode, then it will automatically restart in extender mode, if you were in standalone mode, it will restart in that mode. |

Oh, it works either way, but if you want a way to get back into standalone mode, it's handy to disable auto-connect so then (if you remember to go back to extender mode when you're done in standalone) power takes you to standalone and Home takes you to extender mode.
