Lost my Samsung TV's remote and so I'm looking for a new Universal remote for my room's home theater set up.
Currently have a Samsung 32'' 1080p TV
DirecTV HD reciever
Xbox 360
Macbook Pro
Vista PC w/ remote receiver
Will be soon adding a sound system to the mix as well as Blu Ray player.
I'm looking for something to control most everything, at least the satellite, 360 (since it's be DVD player for the moment), soon to be added Blu Ray player, and sound system I'll be adding (I'll make sure whatever one I choose is compatible with the remote.)
I've seen some that also allow you to control lighting and other features in the house, how do you get that to work? Does your lighting have to be pre-configured for this or can you do it afterwords?
So guys, any help finding a decent, functional universal remote?
Thanks! 😀
Edit: To clarify, I've seen remotes up to a grand, not looking to spend more then 200-250$, preferably less, but I'll make a stretch if it's worth it.
