Summary: Terrible
Review: 1. The encloded codes do *not* cover the functions of amplifiers and dvd players completely.
2. Adding new keys (label learning) can cause main keys to disappear...you must start over by resetting the device.
3. There is great difficulty adding codes. It will not accept certain remote codes.This is best avoided!!!

Summary: Works Perfectly!!
Review: I recv'd this item today and it took me a whopping 30 minutes to get it working with 5 components. I have it completely setup for my 200 disc DVD carousel (Sony DVP-CX850), as well as my home theater Pro Logic surround, 27in TV, VCR and CD player. I was even glad that all the subtle nuances like Picture-In-Picture work with this remote because NFL season is just around the corner. I have no idea why the other reviewers gave it such a bad rap, it works perfectly fine for all my components. I especially like the blue LCD that illuminates at night (it goes off after 30 secs).

Summary: Not A Universal Remote
Review: The RCA RCU1010 is a nicely designed "universal" remote that's not universal. It wouldn't learn all the codes for a brand new Samsung HD satellite receiver or an older Yamaha audio receiver. On the Samsung, you can't use up and down channels with the DirecTV guide, so you have to enter the channel from the numeric pad. It gets it done, but eliminates the convenience of the guide. On the Yamaha, the input codes in the presets are wrong. The tuner button turns on the VCR, for example. The RCA won't learn the correct codes or learn the codes for other inputs or DSP settings. Setting codes on the equipment that is compatible is tedious. The learning mode is successful in capturing the codes from the other remote only about one in four tries. If you have all RCA equipment, this is probably a good choice. The macro function has great potential. But if you, like most everyone, have an assortment of manufacturer's equipment, try another remote.
