I can't seem to make the learning mode to stick and the Pioneer remote is a joke. Anyone having the same problem and has ideas?

No problem with BlueTooth. But you are right about the remote, it is a big joke. And I do not like the fact it does not have any indecation light to show how high volume is. Good sound though.

I am having the same problem. The remote died about two weeks after we set the system up. I thought I was incompetent with the learning mode because I could not get it to work. I guess we are lucky that the buttons work.

No problems. Worked as advertised. Maybe you should ship it back an get a new one....assuming you followed all directions and are not expecting a BOSE or SONOS experience.

I had the same problem and called tech support. Go to Pioneers website and look for the videos on the soundbar. The correct procedure to teach the sound bar to learn your remote is there. The instructions are leaving some procedures out. You have to learn it twice in a row.

Same thing happened to mine. There is no way to fix the issue except returning it or sending back to Pioneer

Make sure the volume on the box itself is turned up. I had the same issue, I thought, then after adjusting the volume on box itself, I found that the remote worked again. Hope that solves your problem.

I had this problem too, I think you do need the remote. If I remember correctly, I had to go into the post process settings and change them. It may have been another speaker setting tho. I imagine you can order a remote from Yamaha. Great unit btw.

Hi, you may have downloaded the incorrect remote, I had the same issue until I downloaded the correct remote. It took a litter guess work.Joe.

I had no other way to get back to you, James so I'll try here. Question: Did I have the new remote "learn" from the other remotes. I did not. I used the published Dishnetwork codes.

Sorry, can't help you. But having difficulties doesn't surprise me. First the iPod connection stop working, then all the hdmi connections wouldn't work, and then 1 speaker started to cut out, and finally the amp started turning off after 5 minutes. All of this happened in 18 months. Got a $200 5.1 Yamaha now. Works great and sounds better than the Pioneer! Good luck.

Hi Eric, so far my remote is keeping itself together. My disappointment with the remote, and the heater itself, is that it doesn't remember how I had it set up. If I am in bed and wish to use the remote, I have to get out of bed to go to the machine and set it up again. I can't read the display from my bed! I am not enjoying this single button control on the heater--I am clicking and advancing and clicking for a long time before it is where I want it. I've never been able to do the correct clicking to engage the timer

Hi-I had a pro installer put our system in who was familiar with this pioneer line-He had alot of trouble with this issue. Basically you have to have separate inputs for ZONE 2-then you have to switch to zone 2 on the controller. For some reason when I want to switch to zone 2 I have to hit the power button. Once you are on zone 2 you then choose your input source. This system was not very user friendly,,,,but it sounds good.

Try to reprogram the one that doesnt seem to work. I learned how to program my new remote on youtube. It was pretty odd, but it worked. The old one still works too.

The remote was the lest of my problems. To be honest it may not be the remote. The whole unit is bad. Give it up and see if you can get a MP3 and a small set of speakers.

I had the same problem; the remote doesn't communicate with the frame, and there is evidently no longer customer support for the product. However, I was able to program the frame using the buttons on top. It took a little while, but the frame does everything I want it to do. I hope you can get the frame programmed to do what you want it to do.

It took me a long time to hook up this Pioneer unit. I ended up using a toss-link cable (optical digital cable) because I could not get the HDMI sound right. I have had Pioneer units in the past but I should have spent the extra money on an Onkyo. Just buy a toss-link cable on Amizon and plug it in and you will be fine.

Mary, I sorry I can't answer your specific question. However, I have found that if the pre-program function does not work you can use the "Learn" function to train the remote to do what you want it to do. The process is on page 12 of the owner's manual. After you have programmed a couple of the functions you will see that your learning curve will rapidly improve.

I would call customer support on the issue. Seems like you received a faulty remote :/

Mine worked fine, but it sounds like you have a defect remote. I would suggest contacting the vendor. They will probably just send you a new one.
