Hello all,
Sorry to be such a downer, but I just tried programming my Skip 1s for the first time and I'm really pissed to discover that this next gen remote CAN NOT LEARN!
I like being able to use good, old, solid AVRs until they die in various setups throughout the home (or homes in this case thru the years). Trying to get a remote to work with a Samsung The Frame TV (2022/23) and a Sony STR-DB930 (1994-ish?) in the living room. Seems I have the same problem as a lot of other Sony sufferers... power on/off does not work, but maybe they can find a setup for volume.
Every smart remote I ever purchased, from a Realistic to a Harmony to a Home Theater Master MX-500 could learn... I just can't believe the Skip is so limited. A glance at Amazon shows remotes for $18 that have learning capabilities. I feel duped.
After reading many forum posts and ALL the blog posts I don't know how long it will be before Skip can learn, or if ever my Skip can learn.
I know how to use multiple remotes, looking for a solution for OTHERS in the household.
Bummer.
Dave
