Just a 'heads up' in case you order, make sure you have two AA's lying around. Learning mode is typical for such devices. While the 'feel' of the remote is a little off from what I'm used to, it has all the functionality stated in the description. It's nice to have a few macros to play with as well. A bit of a pain, but you only have to do it once.Seriously though Sony, you couldn't include a couple AA batteries with this.
Beyond that, I think I'll learn how to split an atom. It might be easier. I'm still working on it. One would think they would sync easily - NOT. I found this remote a little difficult to program. First, the "brand new" package was received with the blister pack opened prior to receiving it. I have a Sony TV, Sony Surround Sound system, Sony DVD player, and Dish network. I can get it to change channels and adjust the volume if I change the mode in between the actions.
I have a Sanyo Tube TV and it didn't work, but it did work for my RCA DVD player. So I don't know why it didn't work. For the price it's a good remote. I find this interesting because the TV is newer than the DVD player.
The LG codes work for the major functions, and you can 'teach' (very easily) the rest of the functions. The old CD-changer, and even better the stubborn Vizio TV which never worked with any other remote properly. I can finally put the other remotes in storage for good. A remote that operates every function I want on every single device I own for a very reasonable price. and get this remote. If you own a Vizio TV, dont panic if you don't see Vizio codes.
Dont get one of the no-name cheapie remotes.spend the extra couple bucks (literally). I didn't think it was possible. This remote is an absolute steal. This remote is a breeze to set-up, comfortable to use, and laid out very nicely.
Set up was fairly easy. I have been using this remote for a little over half a year already and this is great and macro actually works. I had purchase two additional remotes to give to my Aunt and cousin.
