Yamaha rx-a700

I've had my yamaha rx-a700 for a couple of years it gives me problems all the time and I really can't recommend buying one. 

My newest problem is now every time I turn on my tv and cable box it will turn on my reciever, kind of odd it just started doing this a week ago. Usually I'll have to get up and turn my reciever off because I don't want it on but after I turn it off if I press the select, guide, or list button it will turn my reciever back on. The remote is a RC73.

Hello @Nhicks,

We understand you're having trouble with your remote. Don't worry, we can help with that.

Please take a look at this article here that will help with properly programming your remote. Please let us know if that helps.

Have you tried contacting the manufacture of your third party device to see what could be casing the problem with your receiver?

This looks like CEC or HDMI control is activated. Nothing to do with the remote. Go into the menus on the directv box and the TV and make sureHDMI control is switched off.
