Remote RC64 all on/off

[ganda]

Hello All:
I'm new to directv less than a week.
I got a call today from Payton Manning.
HOW ABOUT THAT!!!!
I asked Directv to add me to their do not call list, Thank You Very Much.
Well see...

I have a little problem, I have a Media Center, a TV, and the Sat Box.
I would like to be able to power up or down the whole system with 1 key press.

I am able to turn on/off the TV, and the Sat Box with the TV ON/OFF Button.
I have to move the slider to AV1 and press the PWR button under the slider to bring up the media center. Then I move the slider back to the far left Directv position.

Is a one button ON/OFF possible with the RC64 remote supplied from Directv?
OR
Are there other remotes that will work with Directv that have this feature?
So Far, So Good, and Thank You for any input you might have.
WB

Others will verify, but I believe that the remote can be set to turn on/off a TV and AV receiver (media center), if it has the remote codes on the database.

Otherwise, you may want to look into getting a universal remote, such as a Harmony.

No you can't, the only components the TV/DVR ON & OFF keys will control are the TV & DVR, nothing else.

Time for a Harmony Remote

Why not like a call from Payton, I never got a call from Payton

The TV On/Off buttons (top left) turn on/off the TV and DVR. That's all the D* remote can do.
