Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - good remote
Although I don't like that have to "login" to configure the remote, the software wizard works quite nicely. You must redo the wizard if you change the model of a component, but this isn't something you'd do very often.

As for the remote, the buttons (as many have said) are too small. This causes me to give it three stars. Although the product works very well, the primary action I do with the remote is enter channel numbers and that is not easily accomplished.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Look no further for a remote - EVER!!!
Want to watch TV but all you have is sound with no picture? Then you have picture but no sound...after several more button presses you now have no sound and no picture!? Or the parents are in town and you're leaving the house but have to spend 30 minutes teaching them how to use your complicated home theater setup? This is the remote for YOU!!

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Works but not the most convenient
The set up was a bit tedious. Once set up it works fine except for when changing between input sources i.e. DVD, VCR, or cable. Changing input sources usually requires between 3-4 selections which isn't much trouble but not the most convenient either. I can't imagine the battery will last long because of these multi selection processes but nonetheless this replaces a four remote set up.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Works ... but unimpressed with ease of use, efficiency, interface.
I paid only half the retail price for this remote, and even taking that whopping discount into consideration, I was unimpressed.

First, the device database is not comprehensive. There are only 3 "major" brands of HDMI switches on the market, and Belkin is one of them. This device doesn't have my Belkin 3x1 hdmi switch in their database so i had to teach the remote codes, and after all that trouble, it "found" a similar Belkin device with the same codes.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best Remote
It took me a little time to get it set up, but once I finished, it is the best remote I have ever used.
