One for the TV, one for Cable, and one for the DVD player. All 3 are out even though the cable remote can operate all 3 things.

None, my cat knocked them on the floor and then lost the battery covers under the couch.

TV, Stereo Receiver, VCR, DVD, Satellite ... and sometimes the soundcard :eek: 6!

I need one of those all-in-one programmable ones. Maybe that's what I'll ask for for Christmas. Wait, i already got my present. Maybe I'll get that for my wife for Christmas :p

I've had a couple over the years. Screw it. IMO, it's easier to use a remote dedicated to each piece of equipment. My home theater remote has a couple TV functions programmed in. That's plenty for me.
