Does not work with cable box

Reviews I read that this works with cable box. Unfortunately it won't. Let me get this straight so others know for sure. This doesn't work with cable box (Xfinity anyway). i have to return it That being said, if it worked, this would be an amazing remote for my 92 year old dad.

Pros

Cons
  • Frequency

I can't force him to do anything.

I bought this remote control to do two very weak things: control my Apple TV and adjust the volume on my receiver. First the volume: I have no idea how to set this up. Basically, following the instructions doesn't do anything. And there's no way to select my device directly from the list, you just have to repeat these very cryptic steps over and over again.

Pros
  • Remote Controls
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Pros
  • Remote controls and accessories
Cons
  • Little things

It was surprisingly easy to set up a conversation with the Sharp TV, although I had to use a magnifying glass myself to read the instructions (which are stuffed onto a thin 8x10 sheet of paper and don't match the instructions pictured on the Revain ). .) The setup took a maximum of two minutes. Luckily, the version of the remote I had

Pros
  • Audio and video accessories
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
