1.0 out of 5 stars RCA Remote - Flashes, but won't control the TV!, January 19, 2009

By	Missy (Dearborn, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews

We purchased this for my elderly mother. We programmed it, and it worked, but a few days later she told us it was inoperative.

At this point, all it does is "flash" when pointed at the TV, but it will not control the TV at all! I've taken the batteries out, tried to reprogram it, all to no avail. And I've done this more than once!

I bought one of those "All in Ones", (however, this one just controls the TV), and it seems to be working fine. Sorry to see others have also had trouble with the RCA unit.

4.0 out of 5 stars I can see it!, October 15, 2008

By	Dianne Davidson (Rochester, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Well, I am quite the old lady. I not only need a remote for the bedroom, I need one I can see! This is a sweet little remote. It is not the best, not the worst, but it is seeing some use in my house. It controls the tv just fine. I entered the code once and it has remained. As far as the DVD player, well, it lacks the fine controls, but it does cover the usual ones, as reported.

The backlighting is not the best. I would like to see all the buttons lit, but hey, you get what you pay for. I am getting pretty good at guessing.

If you want to completely get rid of your DVD remote, this one is not for you. But if you want an inexpensive second remote, this baby will do the trick.

1.0 out of 5 stars Avoid - impossible to code, August 5, 2008

By	Reader "Holstein" (Newtown, CT) - See all my reviews

Even though the packaging and Web sites says this will work with Hitachi DVD players, it won't. I spent 2 hours going through the elaborate code search process, then called customer service and they said, "Yeah, we get that alot. You might want to buy a Sony remote."
What a waste of time and misleading packaging!!!
