My wife and I travel frequently and our house sitters had problems dealing with all the remotes. So I purchased a Logitech Harmony One so they could use my entertainment system with one remote. My system includes the following:
Sony TV, Directv HR24, Scientific American cable box and an Onkyo a/v receiver. None of my activities includes more than three devices. From the outset none of the functions worked properly. After 16 contacts with the Logitech techs I gave up. I use the Harmony One remote only because if you press the help button enough times it will finally turn on the proper devices. Why this device cannot remember to turn on three devices consistently is beyond me.
The Logitech Harmony One is expensive. Buy one at your own risk.
