I think I have this figured out. A l,ot of undocumented stuff. You have to set up VCR-0432 (not even listed for Samsung in the OFA literature), then add the codes for the DVD and VCR selection. The 8811 will then control both the DVD and VCR. I still can't figure how to get into the setup menu. The instructions use the same key for setup and VCR timer programming. When I push setup (select) on the 8811 it goes to VCR programmiung. When I push setup on the original remote, it goes to the setup menu. I have to play some more, but any suggestions would be helpful.
