  • QuestionDoes this remote have any bugs? Are there any limitations not covered in the User Guide?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Main limitations I’ve come across so far include: - Fast Forward and Rewind buttons can NOT be changed — learn function does not work for these 2 buttons for some unknown reason - TV setup device codes only work for TV and AUX device buttons, but not the other 6 devices. Would be nice if these worked for all devices buttons for maximum flexibility

  • QuestionCan this remote learn functions like volume up or down if I have the original remote?

    Asked by NickE.

    • Answer Yes, that's what these things do! You do have to "program" it with the correct "code" for the device you're controlling. I use it to control the TV and the amplifier. All electronic devices, TV's, amps, tape decks, CD players, etc. have a 4 digit code. The universal remote comes with a list of these codes for many models of the above. The included instructions tell you how to choose the codes for your devices. It's pretty simple. This particular remote can program 8 separate devices.

  • QuestionI'm looking to replace my harmony hub remotes. I have a few questions. Can it be programmed to turn on TV, AV and Roku on AND tune to proper inputs? And will it turn on XBox One X?

    Asked by SteelRose75.

    • Answer Yes, it can turn on TV, Audio, etc using Watch TV or Watch Movie Activities and holding Power button down for 2 seconds. Roku will automatically turn on when you press the Home button. If your TV has CEC turned on, then when your Roku is activated (ex Home button pressed), then your TV should automatically change inputs on its own (it does for me) without this remote having to do anything.

  • QuestionDoes this remote work with INSIGNIA Fire TV NS32-FEFL26?

    Asked by RemoteGuy.

    • Answer Hello! Thank you for your question. Yes, the Insignia 8‑Device Backlit Universal Remote can control the Insignia Fire TV NS‑32FEFL26, but only for basic TV functions (power, volume, input). It cannot replace the Fire TV Voice Remote features like Alexa voice control, app navigation, or Bluetooth‑based commands. Because this is a universal IR remote, it works with the TV’s IR receiver, not the Fire TV OS interface. Darshan | Insignia
