It's unfortunate that the user wants us to make them smarter. Usually though, you have to tell them to learn the way the machine works. You will never be able to program a remote for every single function and make it 'easy' to use.

Recording for most homeowners is a hard thing to do, if they can't do it with the original remotes, then it will be tough to get it working with a pronto at all.
