phodographer's Full Review: Sony RM-V202 Remote Control
You would think that a SONY universal remote would control at least SONY branded components. You would think that being SONY it would mean quality. Not so.
This remote was purchased for a SONY DVD player that was missing the original remote. Setting up procedure was a pain. After finding the right code, the remote would control some functions of the DVD player, but NOT advance and rewind. That's right, Play and stop worked, as well as some other buttons, but advance and rewind did not.
Called Sony tech support, mainly to express disbelief at the situation. They informed us that the so called Sony universal remote is not necessarily compatible with Sony branded products. They wanted to walk through the set-up procedure again. Humoured them.. with the same disappointing results. At which point, was informed again, that, unforunately, this Sony universal remote is not guaranteed to be compatible with Sony products. So sorry.
Tried to set up a GE TV, no appropriate code found. More difficulty with setting up Sony VCR, had to use manual code search to get it to work.
