If your tv supports HDMI-CEC then you should be able to it through that, otherwise no.

if you bought the Duo recently it would have shipped with the new universal remote control. this can be programmed for use with both the tv and receiver although i could not get the tv part working on my own tv.

In the UNO-manual (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?9578-Vu-Uno-Manual&p=70775&viewfull=1#post70775) there's a section about programming the R/C.

Hi pheonix and also the other,
this sentence from the manual "3. Keep pressing Mute button (or Power) until your TV is muted (or turned off)" could be easily misunderstood. Understand it this way: 3. Keep Mute button (or Power) pressed until your TV is muted (or turned off)

So do not press, release, press, release the Mute/Power button. Keep one of the button pressed until there is a reaction from the TV. I tried 4 different TVs from 3 different brands and even with an unknown OEM TV the complete scan worked after around half an hour.

Hi

I got feed up with the wife moaning about the number of RC's knocking about, and bought a Harmony. All other RC's are now stashed in the draw where they belong...... and the wife is happy (for the time-being anyway) :D

Hi pheonix,
you might love but I know 2-3 people who pressed and released and pressed and released... If they didn´t die they still press and release:-)

Hello, my duo was bought in feburary from our site sponsors so I think my remote is the 'universal type'. However the instructions state to 'Press number 1 and 3 for three seconds until LED is on', my question is were is the LED? :confused: As always thanks in advance.

[Larry-G]

the word led refers to the TV button on the top left of the remote.

[Rob van der Does]

The LED is in the 'TV'-button at the top-left. If it's not there, it's non-universal type.

Edit: AHGrrhhhh, Pheonix is unbeatable :D
