Dunce, it doesn't learn.

I got the remote and quickly did a code search for all my components. Then I tried the functions provided and found that only half of them worked. (I could scroll Up and Right in my TV's menu but not Down or Left). Then I tried fixing the commands...

Not a touchscreen fan, but it's still a good remote.

 

Not a touchscreen fan, but it's still a good remote.

I've had absolutely no problems with setting up and programming this remote. It's really easy to program, of course you have to read the manual, but it should take an idiot about 20 minutes to get things up and running.The problem is the touchscreen,...

Weak Remote

 

Weak Remote

Complete waste of time. I have fought with it for hours and not very user friendly at all. The learning function is basically worthless.

Horrible Remote

 

Horrible Remote

The remote is basically useless. The learning feature does not work on any newer products. After less than 2 weeks it stopped working completely. Save your money and buy a cheaper remote.

Looks Great but is not good

I got this remote as a gift. After spending about 5 hours to program it, it locked up and I had to remove the batteries and reset it. I finally got it porgrammed but it eats batteries about every 3 days. It also forgets the learned functions...

I tried this one and the RCU900 and really liked the RCU900. It was quick, learned well.. and works with my Mitsubishi TV, Kenwood Home theatre, and Toshiba DVD and VCR... learned really easy. I am impressed by both of them, but the RCU is really...

I bought this remote about a year ago and immediatly was having problems. First of all the batteries that came with it were dead. After replacing it with fresh batteries the remote had a hard time learning the different functions of other remotes. I...

Product Specifications

If you're really into top-of-the-line home audio equipment you're going to need a universal remote to control it all. RCA's 9 Device remote control has an LCD touchscreen with keys that may be added, deleted, or renamed to your preferences. The included Stylus pen eliminates fingerprints on the surface. If you're into customizing you'll love the quick access keys, learning function, and macro keys. The blue keypad light automatically times out to save battery life.
