Universal remote £4.99 at Lidl

I bought one of these and was quite pleased. It controls up to 10 av items, I have set mine up to do sky+, TV, HIfi plus sky box in kitchen and another tv.

Good bargain for a fiver, especially if you are always losing your remotes!

I also bought this remote but cannot get it to work with the sky+ box. Is there a code you have that works please?

Hi Bigkingy, from memory (I bought it as a present and set it up before sending it) you choose the normal sky code then just get it to "learn" the recording option on the record button (when in sat mode) from the original remote. Bit of a pain but a bargain still.

Hope this makes sense.
