Universal remotes for Ultra TV

Does anyone know if there are any universal remotes that work well with Ultra TV?

Logitech 300 and the Logitech One both work great. I use them both.

Any of the Logitech/Harmony remotes where you download the codes from their online site should work. Note that the 300 is 'just' a remote, though. It doesn't do macros where pushing the device button automatically turns things on and switches to the right inputs like the other harmony models would.

it actually can turn multiple devices on and off with one button press. it can't change inputs though. four devices total. well worth it.

my harmony one can do everything the 300 can plus macro inputs for my TV and AV receiver. but I don't like the touch screen and it's slow at times in changing inputs.

Exactly. Read the model number on the device. Setup using MyHarmony.com. A couple buttons you may need to hand program (Easy)

I returned a 300 when I found out it couldn't switch inputs because I have a fairly complicated setup - but later got a 650 and like it. However, after getting the ultra TV system and setting up a DLNA server with most of my other content I find that I don't switch to the other devices that often anymore - and end up just using the media player's remote which is programmed to control the receiver audio and power on the receiver/tv.

There are two different model media players out there currently. I don't believe the remote codes are any different though. The media players with the blue clock are MP2000's. If your media player has a white clock on the front, it's the MP2150.

So someone finally realized that you can't see that blue clock even on the brightest setting? I actually put a small alarm clock with red numerals next to mine to have something I could read.

Other than the white clock, is there any other difference between the two? And I'm glad they stopped making the blue clock. Can't see it clearly in the dark. Didn't they test that before production?

The clock is white, the front buttons are now touch buttons instead of physical buttons, and I believe it has SOME support for RF remotes. That's about all I know is different about them.

Nothing worth calling about to get them to switch mine then. I was hoping it was faster with the channel guide or updated firmware.
