I bought this because my URC-8800 (which is more than twice as expensive) could not control all the features of my new DirecTivo receiver. If you're looking for a complete and inexpesive solution for your home theater, I can't think of a better way to go than the URC-7800.

Review 11 made on Tuesday Januat 5:20 PM. If you get one be sure to read the variuos fan sites on One for All remotes to find out how to use the undocumented features and then even if you don't like it - how many times have you spent $25 on a CD or DVD you didn't like? You'll be much happier with the Cinema 7. Took awhile to set up the way I like - other than the CD my other components were about 90% there before I made any changes. Since I have a five disk changer and don't use this that often I changed it to track numbers instead. I totally remapped the CD layout as the number pad was picking the disk number by default. It does way more than the manual suggests - like learns on any key, macro's on any key, key can have a shift function and the advanced code feature lets you program all sorts of functionality. No dedicated chapter skip buttons (uses volume up and down) Only enough Memory for about 35 advanced keys and 30 learned keys plus a couple of macros Review 12 made on Friday Februat 10:45 PM. The reviewer has used this remote control for 1-2 years. Written by Jim Cruickshank from BC, Canada. Its rich and powerful features, combined with the quality build, backlight, and intuitive button placement and labeling give the 15-1994 a big leap over the Cinema 7.įor instructions, tips and tricks, read the pages at This website exposes the hidden features of the Cinema 7 and the 15-1994. In my case, it was an easy decision to go with 15-1994. I was also comparing the two with the popular RCA RCU810.

Given the similarity in the features (and more such as channel scan, etc) and prices, I would recommend trying both the 15-1994 and the Cinema 7 at the same time (return the one you don't like). This unit has the same inside as the Radio Shack 15-1994, which has more buttons and backlight that lights up ALL buttons. Has similar electronic as Radio Shack 15-1994, but not as good.
