DirecTV could not get their remote to control an earlier version of this receiver. Anyone know if similar issues with this one?

I was able to get the volume control working on this model with the DirecTV controller. You just have to follow the DirecTV instructions on MENU/Remote Control. I said I had a Sony but they did not list the model. So it began searching for codes (they said there were 95 codes they would test) and on Code 3 it worked.

I got the cable guy to do it for me I was lucky it was complicated. I tried to do it again on my own with another remote but no luck. Hope your luck is better than mine.

One issue was resolved with a quick call to Peerless tech. I connected transmitter to DirecTV then out to Yamaha receiver. Picture/sound flickered on/off. I had to connect transmitter after AV receiver, not before. Works great, and now any device connected to my receiver (BluRay, CD, VCR) is transmitted to remote TV. Putting transmitter inside cabinet reduced signal, but placing it as close to receiver as possible, receiving signal is 4 bars (highest) even through 2 walls and on another floor.

Thanks N. Singh. Glad to hear about the standard def direct TV box. Still puzzled why the 910 will upconvert the TV signal (both audio and video) coming in via component but only the video and not the audio signal from the DVD player also coming in via component.

Thanks Chris. Yes I checked the DVD player tp make sure it has DTS code. I didnt use the optical cable for the digital sound connection but I used the digital coax which I believe should work just fine on DTS. I called customer service but they answered via email and didnt really know how to solve the issue. I am disappointed at Pioneer receiver. Appreciate ur sharing with me. Thanks. By the way, does digital sound has some echo in it?

I have programmed at least four RF10 remotes with three different TV models and have not run into that problem. Perhaps it's the way the TV responds to the command.

If you are using the remote press the receiver button before changing the input source and see it that helps. It works for me.

Do you have 1 single remote, now, that controls your DirectTV box and the TV? If yes- then this remote will work the same way. If you have to use separate remotes then maybe not.

You might need to upgrade your satellite dish, also is your old TV 1080P compatible? If not, you need to buy a new LED TV. Does your TV got HDMI ports in the back? I'm sure if you call Directv, they will install a new satellite dish for you and give you the latest receiver.

I don't have direct tv but for my setup I use the same remote as the tv I put the relay on for the other tv that has the receiver.

Mine wouldn't do the auto program or the one where you point the old one at it and press all the buttons. I had to do it one button at a time, manually. As to how that works, I'm sorry but I can't remember exactly. I just remember fighting with the thing for a long time. This remote has now become nearly useless, as the main select button has to be mashed hard to get it to react, and the up/down selector ring is also barely functioning. It has also become very position sensitive and has to be pointed directly at the Dish box to work, and is slow even then. I have bought a new Sony RM-VLZ620 to replace it. Sorry I was not more help. If I knew then what I know now about the URC, I would have sent it back. You should too.

I had to change the settings in the receiver to make it work. Make sure the remote control setting is set to IR remote. If it set to RF it might not work.

it sounds like the remote was disconnecting I would try a different channel. I have never had any problems with mine

you have to use the code provided by URC. It will be relatively easy. Just make sure the DirecTv remote isn't in RF mode.

Thanks for your help, I just replaced the Monster Cable that didn't work with this unit (it was working ok when i had my ps3 connected to the tv),I don't know whats the problem with the cable but after replacing it with the cable provided by Directv, the system is working perfect

I bought a refurbished unit and the remote worked fine. I think I would return it if it's not functional.
