He uses the same remote to turn on the TV.John picks up his OEM receiver remote and turns it on.The resulting system control "procedure" may look something like this:

It will theoretically handle the cable box, but not in a usable way (no on-demand or menu control buttons or extended DVR functions). In a more sophisticated system, the OEM receiver remote control unit may be programmable to handle the DVD player and even the display. A basic system in a household consists of a DVD player, cable or satellite box, receiver and display. Let's paint the picture of the typical home theater system. A well-programmed remote control can be the difference between apathy and generating actual excitement about an AV system. Why? Because an RF remote control will change the way people (and especially spouses) view home theater. I'll be up front with you: I'm going to blow holes in every one of these reasons and attempt to convince, en masse, a complete rethinking of the RF phenomenon. Most consumer models have been unreliable over any reasonable distance (especially through walls).Major name brand systems have yet to hit the market in sufficient numbers to drive consumer awareness and enthusiasm.More advanced programming leaves them thinking it may be more work than it's worth.They assume RF remotes are too expensive.They haven't had the chance to experience RF and assume it's just another style of remote.I can only guess that there are several reasons consumers haven't jumped into the RF world in droves: In that sense, third party remotes are always (and should always be) king. That's the equivalent of buying a car and being forced to pay more for an upgraded audio system when you'd just as soon go out and buy your own. Remember, one thing that we DON'T want is for manufacturers to put so much into the remote control that it ends up being a non-removable option which results in more expensive gear. Even with my criticisms, perhaps the best integrated remote is one that is ergonomic, but doesn't drive the cost of the unit through the roof. I have no tolerance for bad remotes - the industry has been around long enough to avoid any of the common errors that plague a bad unit, yet for some reason they seem to always reinvent the wheel… And often times that "wheel" ends up being flat, balding or just plain wrong for its intended use. I've been fixated on IR and RF remote controls for some time now, and it frequently shows in my review critiques.
