I am only a customer but with the learning feature on this remote, you can program any function as far as I know. It learned my old sony vcr codes and my cable box codes and it was easy to program. Hope that helps.

The learning feature allows almost any of the buttons to be programmed with the IR signal from the factory remote. Ours is set up so that the hard "guide" button controls the TV input from the main screen, so it's not necessary to navigate to the RF20's TV section first. It's very flexible and easy to use. Programming is actually very intuitive after reading the instructions.

If you have the original remote just use the LEARN feature. I had to do it for my Telus digital TV remote it uses proprietary codes.

Without know specifically the models of where you are originating a signal from and where the signal is going to, it is difficult to say yes. Here is a link on the manufactures website to give better detail, http://www.kanexpro.com/item/?id=HDRGBRL. The one part I do know, your "old" tv will need to have a component input. As for your SONY, give me your model number and I will attempt to help.

If your TV is equipped with both HDMI and rca inputs for audio (red and white inputs) and video (yellow input), then you can have both hooked up simultaneously and choose between via Source selection on your TV remote

I use mine on a somewhat older Sony Bravia XBR2. It just plugs into the HDMI input on your TV, so I would think it should be okay. You have to purchase an HDMI cable to plug it into the TV, and then each device going into the switch will also need an HDMI cable. I've used the switch with a Roku box, an Apple TV, a Sony Blu-ray player and a Samsung DVD player. I sometimes have to use the remote to select which device the switch is connecting, but most of the time the switch automatically senses which device is active.

Exactly what Bob Hamilton said - keep in mind that this remote is a learning remote, so if you still have a functioning Olevia remote you can teach it all the commands. I've used this remote to control out Uverse STB and a Sony Blu-ray player, as well as an old Sony VCR. Works great.

Not sure. There is an adapter provided that accommodates coaxial cable to the antenna port, using the Dish tuner for channel selection. Get a high-gain antenna, use coaxial cable, get your channels off the air, your best bet. I own one, I bought it for the TV feature too. In my humble opinion, you can find a better unit. I do not like the button arrangement on the remote control. There is no "zoom in" feature for a full widescreen effect on home recorded dvd's and keep the original aspect ratio. I regret this purchase.I ended up getting a Sony DVP-FX750, the predecessor to the current DVP-FX780, and am satisfied with it, though the Sony does not have TV. Not sure.

I'm not sure how the remote would know what kind of TV it is controlling, but I can tell you that my ROKU replacement remote is not used in an HD application. My understanding was that if I upgraded to an HD TV everything would work the same as long as I used the proper HDMI cable instead of the coax that was included with the original unit. I guess I would trust what ROKU says even though my understanding is not complete. Hope I didn't make it more confusing.

This remote is sigificantly more advanced than the one you have. It takes a lot of juice to power that touch screen. It is according to how many hours per day that you watch television. Do you constantly flip back and forth between different channels, or do you watch one channel for a couple of hours before you switch? As long as you only use the remote occassionally to change channels or turn the volume up and down, etc. You should be able to use the remote for the entire day and recharge it at night while you sleep. That way when you wake up the next day, the remote is fully charged and ready to go. I hope this helps you make your decision. This remote is sigificantly more advanced than the one you have.

Well for me the input came in useful as I have 3 devices HDMI compatible and only 2 HDMI inputs on my set. I have my DVR cable box connected to the Samsung receiver via HDMI and the Samsung receiver going to the TV via HDMI. Then I have my PS3 using the other HDMI. And that's what it is all about really. Without the input on the back, I wouldn't have enough inputs to connect everything HDMI.

NO! This device is only for certain Sony Bravia (3D)-HDTV's built in 2011 (See listed models in description.) It has a Sony proprietary plug which only fits those models. Sony rushed those models into the market without the transmitter built in, forcing the customers who wanted to watch 3D into an additional expense to complete the features of their 3D/HDTV! Nice, huh?

Yes, the review that said otherwise was wrong. The Sony Bravia TV option is just an easier setup. Works just fine on our Sanyo, Insignia, etc.

I tried to find the technical specs for your Sony KDL 40S210, but could not. So, my answer is this: If you can plug in an HDMI connected device such as a Blue-Ray or DVD player and if it works fine with that HDMI connection, then this Kinivo box should work and should allow you to connect multiple devices (BlueRay, Satalite Receiver, etc) that you can easily switch between them. It works best when only one device is actually powered on at a time, but otherwise you can use the Kinivo's remote to choose which device will be passed to the TV.Some devices tend to stay powered on all the time and would require the manual switching with the remote. The Roku box is an example of this type of "always on" device. I tried to find the technical specs for your Sony KDL 40S210, but could not.

Whether you can even do this will depend on whether or not your television and original remote support this function. If they do, then you must train your Sony by its learning function to do this. If either the television or the remote DO NOT support this function you WILL NOT be able to do this.

Tina, I have the Vizio XV422XVT with built in wifi. I've tried 4 different replacement remotes and none of them is 100% compatible even though my particular model is listed as a compatible TV. Examples: Volume always seems to work. Menu button does not always work. Input button (to select dvd, vcr etc) does not always work. Scrolling channels using up/down arrow does not always work and so forth. I have one remote that will work for choosing the input source, another will allow me to select channels and use the menu features and so on. The original remote didn't even last one year and every thing I read about the original said original replacements were no better. Tina, I have the Vizio XV422XVT with built in wifi.
