The INPUT entity appears to cause the remote to lock up when used in a sequence on the Remote 3. #40598

Hi - I'm a newbie to the Unfolded Circle world, but have learned enough in tinkering with the Remote 3 for the past few weeks to realize there is a lot of time and effort involved in getting everything to work, so first of all, thank you for all of that time and effort in this JVC integration. I wanted to pass along that I tried to set up a very basic sequence that turns on the JVC projector (which works successfully), delay for 55000 ms (55 secs), then issue an INPUT command with HDMI 2 selected to change inputs on the JVC. The input change works, but the Remote 3 hangs up every time and will not complete/exit the sequence. It just freezes on showing the Input Select command and the closed circle, but won't actually finish and move to the activity page. I have to hold the power key to reboot the remote to get out of it. I've tried using the send_command (hdmi_x) and command_sequence (hdmi x) entities to change the inputs on the projector instead, but they haven't successfully changed the inputs.

As a related aside, when using the media player entity, the HDMI 1 and HDMI 2 buttons will change the JVC inputs, but I noticed that about 10 seconds later the remote shows the red banner on top briefly with a "timeout error" message - not sure if it's related to the above. Otherwise, all the other commands seem to work well. Again, just wanted to pass along in case you guys are under the hood already and have another release pending. Thanks!
