Why are we now forced to have 0.5 second delays between every Activity step?

I’m writing back-and-forth with the service of Sofabaton, but they only suggest to make changes in my startup sequences. That does not make sense. I had the opportunity to have a protocol within professional infrared receiver. The hub does definitely send all shutdown sequences when I start an activity..
When an activity starts, then the hub sends the shutdown sequences of all activities. That leads into problems if you switch directly into another activity that is using the same device. You can easily confirm that by generating one more activity using in example your TV and command to mute the TV in the startup sequence, and in the shutdown sequence. You will recognize that your TV will mute if you use your original activity that is using your TV. I do have an activity that is switching my TV and my Harman-Kardon receiver on. In that activity, I have a startup sequence that is switching the TV on, mute the TV and then start the Harmon-Kardon. The shutdown sequence sends mute to the TV unmute, switching the TV off and switching the Harmon-Kardon off. A second activity is only switching the Harman Kardon system on in the startup sequence and shutting it down In the shutdown sequence. Both activities are working fine when used separately using the off button on the X2. When I switch my TV on by using the original remote control from the TV, the X2 doesn't know that the TV is on. But I can control if the TV is muted or not. When I then start the activity that is only running the Harmon-Kardon receiver, the TV is muted. This is definitely a bug in the firmware of the hub. The hub should only send shut down sequences of activities that have been started before.
I second this. When I want to change channels on my DISH Hopper it requires entering 3 digit numbers. When I program such a sequence (through a macro), there are mandatory 0.5 seconds delays. This is too long for the DISH device and after two digits it stops accepting input. Consequently the channel corresponding to the first two digits is selected. Ideally, there would be a feature to send a string of numbers, with a single delay between each number programmed, and allowing times less than 0.5. I suggest allowing 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 1, 1.5 etc. Until the delay issue is addressed this remote is more of an annoyance to use than a benefit.
SofaBaton, thanks. I tried that and saw a slight improvement, but it's still very slow. Ideally the repeat delay would be configurable. Dave480, good idea. I have an Anthem MRX 740. I'll try some other Anthem models.
Ok Battery is the solution here :) ..my bad. Great control now, happy camper! (I was very sure I used new batteries from day 1, accidentally most probably I inserted used AA ones, if no reports back here, I 'll stay a happy camper.
