Stupid 811 remote question

[thebradybunch]

I just bought a new receiver and am trying to get evrything set up. I know there is a way to set the volume on the remote to control the volume of the amp no matter which setting or mode the remote is in. The problem is I do not remember how and it is not in the owners manual. Thanks for your help

Set up the AUX button for your amp. It's on page 69 of my manual - "Control a tuner or amplifier". Next page shows how to set the volume control.

Thanks, I was looking in the remote section. Its been a long day.

Yes I think if they want to put it there fine, but it should be also at the beginning of the appendix for codes(how to program the remote).

I have a Sony home theater reciever(or whatever you call it), and thats what I have all my sound going through, including the TV.

I've tried programming the 811 remote to it, so that I can control the volume to it, but none of the codes work, and when I do the search thing, it never works for it either

I wish there was some way to get the remote to work for it, just so that I can control the volume.....

Have you tried the codes listed under "Tuner/Amplifier Codes"?

Have you tried the codes listed under "Tuner/Amplifier Codes"?

I've tried all the Sony ones.

Oh, and bradybunch, sorry for butting into your thread.

There is also an option for scanning for devices not listed. Thats how mine found the Panasonic receiver.
