    Hmm.. I think as my initial worry was keeping the white Vu+ remote clean, I'll either:
    A. Settle for the Harmony 515, £20 isn't a lot to waste if I don't like it, and I could probably have it in my hands after lunch.
    B. Wait till balck Vu+ remotes are available to buy.
    C. Just keep washing my hands every 5 minutes and spend the money saved on feeding the kids

    I'll think about it.

    In all honesty m8 it wouldn't get used to its full capacity.

    I've only really use mine to turn on all my a/v equipment in one go, control the volume and switch channels. Then say switch from satellite to media player etc..

    I own a logitech 525... need to set this up!

    Does anybody who's using a logitech find the buttons on the remote as responsive as using the actual vu+ remote? The problem I had with my DM800 is that when using my 525, it was a lot slower than using the original dm800 remote. I hope the vu+ does not have these problems!

    You can adjust the timing's in the Logitech software then update the remote.

    Yea, you can adjust the timings, I found my remote quite slows until Sic suggested fiddling with the settings of the remote.

    Ive tried fiddling with the timings on various occasions mate, but I simply have no joy! I cant figure out what is a lightning fast setting and what is a slow setting! I'll have to 'tinker' again!

    Hi all,

    The soft buttons are a pain. I think I may assign 1234 to the colours (or +, E etc if I find I need them) as the positioning on the H One isn’t the best (oh how I miss my trusty old 525!)

    Quick question. There seems to various ways to jump around channels but they don’t seem consistent. For example if I’m on a channel and press channel up I get a list of surrounding channels. I can arrow up and down and press OK to select a new channel (PERFECT!). If however, I go through the multi-epg (or the graphical EPG); I have to press zap (red) to view the channel (which I don’t like doing on the harmony)

    I also want the EPG info screens to disappear when I select a channel rather than having to press exit.

    Is there anyway a can start to unify this stuff?

    Any one use the Harmony 650.

    Also has anyone managed to get some fancy macro stuff working on the VU+ with the harmony remotes.
    I dont mean just turning on several devices.
    But executing commands that take several clicks on the vu+ remote normally.
