I couldn't get the cable box remote to control the volume on my Samsung HD TV. This product works on all my stuff. Easy to use. Easy to program. Works as advertised.

It depends on the components it controls being synchronized, so they all turn on at once etc...so if one component is turned on manually by a foolish meddler the synchronization is destroyed. The remote's help feature is then used to restore status quo ante. <br />Setup software was well designed and easy to use. It is a great boon to the Luddites in our house who are generally helpless when it's time to switch a TV input. Just remember - once you have the remote use it and it alone to control your devices!

It is infinitely programmable. I currently have the following components that it controls:

1. HDTV

2. A/V Receiver

3. Tivo

4. Digital Cable / DVR

5. VCR

6. Apple Airtunes

Plus, I have two game systems (playstation 2 and gamecube) that it does not control, but that it can set up the other components so that all I need to do is press the power button on the game system.

Now, this is the system that NO one, NO ONE can figure out without a CS degree. <br /> <br />My girlfriend now loves it :) Love this remote!

You can test drive the setup procedures on Logitech's website to see if this is your cup of tea. <br /> <br />All Harmony remotes have the same programmable capabilities, so you should make your decision based on the buttons available, price, and other features. The only thing that I wish this model had was rechargeable batteries because the batteries need to be changed about every month. Remotes don’t get any better than the Harmony series

It's the only remote I've owned that correctly controls every one of the devices I own. As a bonus I discoverd it even controls my Bose Portable SoundDock for my iPod. Very slick!

It takes way too long to run this macro and then if I'm not paying attention, I tend to hit other buttons, which just adds more commands to the queue.

So much better than five remotes. It has a sleek design and is asthetically pleasing. Easy to use once it is programmed correctly. The help button is great during the rare times when all items either don't turn on or don't turn off. Highly recommend to anyone of any level of electronics savvy! Great product
