I have yet to purchase this product because I have two lingering questions.

Once you identify your A/V devices are you able to map the commands to whatever button you choose or is it preprogrammed? For instance if I wanted my Commercial Advance button mapped to the Large Down Arrow Button on the 880 can I do that.

I have not been able to get the Test Drive to work and am concerned that my device is not in there. I have a Showcenter 200 can someone confirm that it is there, and if you are a fellow Showcenter owner do the commands work correctly?

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

Yes, you can map any of the regular buttons to any command for any device. The ones you can't reprogram are things like Activities, Device, OFF, etc.

Even if your device isn't in the database, you can add it by learning the commands from the OEM remote. That's how the database grows and that's how new devices get added so quickly. So it will work either way. That's the beauty of a learning remote.

There's the rub. While I love my Showcenter the remote is notorious for being incompatible with learning remotes. I had heard this one already had the codes and would like to make sure.
