I would like to use the "Listen to Music" hardkey on my Harmony 650 to set up a third video device. If I go into "Setup Activities" and edit the "Listen to Music" activity, and set the TV's input channel, and "Save Changes" and go "Back," and try to edit the activity again, then I see that the TV channel has been set back to "None;" after programming the remote if I use the "Listen to Music" hardkey my TV gets turned off.

I don't know if this restriction comes from myharmony.com (in which case this ticket should just be closed) or mhgui/congruity, but I was able to set up my Harmony 670 through members.harmonyremote.com (programmed with concordance) to turn on the TV and set its input channel when pressing its "Listen to Music" hardkey.

    It looks like it works for me, or at least as best as I can tell (I don't actually have a 650 remote - I just have one on my account).

    What are the exact devices and inputs you're using on the Edit Activity page?

    Here's what I did just now to demonstrate. I'm using the congruity master ("download snapshot") I downloaded yesterday from sourceforge which contains the fix for issue 53.

    Ran mhgui, created new account, plugged in Harmony 650 to USB port and added new remote (it was detected successfully).
    Added devices:
    - [TV] Samsung / UN50EH6000
    - [receiver] Sony / STR-DN1000
    - [video player] Roku / Roku 2
    Setup Activities
    - Add Activity | Listen to Music
    --- What device do you use to play music? Roku Roku 2
    --- What device do you use to control volume? Sony STR-DN1000 [was already set correctly]
    --- What input should Samsung UN50EH6000 be set to? HDMI 1/DVI
    --- What input should Sony STR-DN1000 be set to? HDMI2
    --- Save Changes
    - Listen to Music | Edit Activity
    --- "What input should Samsung UN50EH6000 be set to?" is now blank; the other fields correctly have the settings I had just set

    Thanks for the detailed steps to reproduce. This should be fixed now in master.
