Good for Direct TV

This remote control is great for watching Direct TV but is difficult to program as a universal remote control for other parts of your entertainment system. It takes a damn long time to find the right code for my BLUE RAY player and not all features like skipping scenes or jumping to DVD menu are available. I never found the code for my soundbar. The toggle switch for switching between devices is a little fiddly for fingers. However, it made my entertainment system much easier to use and allowed

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • So far so good

If there was a setup guide I would give it a 5.

Google Search Terms - Direct TV Remote RF Setup The Direct TV website has the information you need, but it's not always easy to find. For me to set up the radio frequency (RF) interface to control satellites 1. Turn the dial all the way to the left to control satellites. Hold Mute and Select until the green LED above the selector blinks twice. 2. 9,6,1, then channel up 3. the last 6 digits of the receiver code (the label is in the door of the access card, not on the card, but in the openingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • handy
Cons
  • flimsy

Not unlike the broken original Directv remote.

We had an open house and someone decided they needed to play with our TV. When we got home, the remote control was lying on the floor with a battery and the select button stopped working. After that it's almost useless for me. I was looking at Revain and found this remote control. I took the remote out of the box, put in batteries (2 AA) and used the volume control and as soon as my receiver recognized this it asked me if I wanted to program the remote. The DVR system will give you step-by-step

Pros
  • Finally bought something
Cons
  • Something different

Works great with Samsung TV, does not work with Proscan TV.

I bought two of these remote controls for both of our televisions. It works well with our 46" Samsung LED TV but not with our 32" Proscan LED TV. I've searched the internet and DirecTV's help page and even contacted DirecTV but they refuse to help. None of the help pages or forum threads helped me find the right code to program this remote with a Proscan TV. I've tried all the Proscan codes, some RCA codes and all the NEC codes and none of them worked. That's very disappointing. TV is not veryโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Interchangeable

Really good remote control; not suitable for mythtv.

I bought this remote for my Mythtv entertainment system (on Ubuntu). This is a really great remote control. Here's why I like it and why I bought it: (1) Good workmanship. Feels solid. Has a rubberized, non-slip backing.(2) Has all the buttons I need and nothing more. I don't like Windows MCE remotes that are cluttered with too many (extra) buttons. (3) Good color scheme. Symmetrical, responsive layout. The buttons are conveniently and logically arranged. (4) Lets you adjust the volume toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure

Wow. Excellent price. Fast shipping

I have a Direct TV DVR receiver and the Guide button on my original remote is broken. I saw this remote at Revain and was very skeptical about ordering it as it was only $0.92, but decided to take a chance. I ordered two of these remotes for a total of $9.79 with shipping! I ordered this product on December 2nd and arrived on December 8th with the US Postal Service. The remote control is identical to my original remote control. I put in two AA batteries, pressed the PWR button and my DTV DVRโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Like everything before
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
