Summary: Guide / Info buttons only work with DSS/Dish Network SAT
Review: Attention digital cable subscribers, steer clear of this one. While it has buttons for guide and info, they only work when you are in "Dish" mode. The light doesn't even flash on this remote when you are in cable mode for these buttons! Ludicris! Luckily I bought mine from best buy, so I didn't have to pay shipping to send it back. :( Plus, it's large and ugly... 'Nuff said!

Summary: Great Remote from RCA
Review: I am really happy to have found this remote to consolidate and replace remotes for all of my devices. I have a Pioneer large screen TV, Sony VCR , Panasonic DVD, and Magnavox DSS Satellite. This remote works great on all of them! It even shows the info on Satellite.

Summary: This remote is great for RCA products....
Review: I bought this remote as a replacement for one I broke. I have a Proscan television. Proscan is a company affiliated with RCA. This remote works great. There are a few extra buttons I rarely use, but I don't mind. This remote even works with my JVC boom box. I can't do as many things as I can with original JVC remote, but I can at least play CDs. You should really only buy this remote if you own RCA products. If need a remote for any other of the major brands, buy a more generic remote.

Summary: not a happy shopper
Review: i recently purchased the above item and in turn received another remote in its place after the seller emailed me back to say this is not the item anymore, but i am now out of $16 for an item i don't want, so this is not the item you're purchasing!

Summary: RCA - sorry I bought it
Review: The packaging on this remote controller claims that it works listed devices, including cable boxes, audio equipment, VCR's, etc. It has numerous feature buttons which would appear to allow the control of all features. I bought it to consolidate remotes on very common electronic equipment; Magnavox, Sony, and Scientific Atlanta. Despite claims, you wind up with a lot of useless buttons.

The packaging indicates that it will control a Sony receiver, yet all it does is control volume and mode. Such features as surround mode, etc. are not controlled, despite buttons for same.

The Scientific Atlanta digital cable box is similar. With the programming mode installed I can change channels. Despite claims that it will "control On-Screen channel guides" and the presence of an impressive array of buttons which appear to do that and many other features, these functions do not work.

It appears that the claims on the packaging are very misleading. Beware! Put your money into some other brand.

Disgruntled with RCA
