Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of One For All RC64RBK IRF/RF DIRECTV Backlit Universal Remote Control

Customer Review: Nice RF Remote
Summary: 5 Stars

The Directv RC64RB remote works pretty well. Once in a while you may have hit a button twice or maybe it requires a little more pressure to activate the buttons than the regular old IR remote it replaced.
To activate the remote you will have to locate the reciever ID on the back or bottom of your reciever and enter the last 6 digits in following the instructions on page 12 of the manual. Also as a previous reviewer stated you will need to change the mode in the receiver from IR to RF. Keep in mind once you have changed it to RF the old IR remote will not control the reciever anyomore unless you go back to IR mode. I give the remote 5 stars, However I have one problem with this system. I can only program 1 remote to the receiver. I attempted to program a second one but was unable to do it. Maybe it can be done and I just haven't found out about how to do it.
My reason for the RF remote is on a few nights we wanted to be able to record 3 shows that came on at the same time in our livingroom, but the receiver will only record 2. We have another DVR in our Kitchen. So I ran the Coax out of the Kitchen receiver to the livingroom TV and programed the KITCHEN receiver for RF. We can now watch the shows on the Kitchen DVR in the kitchen or in the livingroom. Or in other words we now have the capability to record up to 4 shows at once and view them from the living room from either receiver (2 in the Kitchen and 2 in the Livingroom). The remote controls the Kitchen Receiver from the livingroom through 3 walls!! It has one other benefit if you get behind watching your favorite shows you now have 2 DVR's doubling your capacity. We catch up in the off season. Yeah we probably watch to much TV. lol. But this is where the problem shows up if you take the RF remote to the kitchen you have to remember to bring it to the livingroom! That is why I want to be able to program a second remote.
I would also check to see if your model receiver will work with this remote. Another reviewer said it did not work for them not sure why.
Other than that enjoy.
By the way the remote does have a nice back light. But it is not on unless you touch a button then it remains for a few seconds. If you are in the dark you probably don't want to hit the wrong button to activate it again after it turns off. Directv was nice enough to put a little light button on the right side the the remote. Not on top actually around on the right hand side. A little hard to activate which is good. You don't want it coming on to easily.
