Anyone know where to find any details on the new IQ learning a/v or home producer remotes? Despite seeing an advertisement in HT, I didn't find them on their website. Are they available yet?

One For All is launching 2 new products with learning capabilities URC-7800 which is the Cinema 7 with learning and should be available in August and the URC-9800 wich is the A/V Producer 8 with Learning and will be available in the Fall.

One for all cinema 6 learner is available at Wal-Mart for $19.99 (URC-6800)

The Cinema 6 is, in fact, the Cinema 7 with Learning capability. It is truly an unbelievable remote, having the capacity to learn any of it's buttons, and run multiple macros, etc. Unbelievable at $19.95 (Wal-Mart, but no where else).

I picked up a Cinema 6 Learning (URC6800) for $19.95 at Wal-Mart yesterday and so far am amazed. I got through with the programming for my TV, VCR and DVD, and after programming the 4 learnable buttons available for each device, I had the full functionality of the original remote. The TV was perfect with the default code. For the VCR, it even learned a two button simultaneous combo necessary to turn on the timer mode as well as the tape speed and counter reset buttons which were the only ones not covered by the code. For my DVD it did everything but audio, zoom, title, and open/close drawer which it quickly learned. Will try it out on the receiver tonight. So far, FANTASTIC for the price.

Tom,
Are you sure any of the buttons can be "learned" on the Cinema 6? It seems like only 4 buttons on the remote are available for learning while the rest are pre-programmed. If anyone can tell me for sure, please reply.
Thanks.

There are only 4 learnable buttons but each can be used separately for each device.

The Cinema 6 comes with 4 "blank" buttons to learn extra functions onto.

Although the book doesn't say so, you can also learn a function onto most of the other keys, replacing whatever pre-programmed function was on the key originally. The procedure is exactly the same, simply follow the instructions but press the key you want instead of one of the L keys.

Just remember that the storage for learned functions is limited to about 30 keys total across all device modes. (The exact number varies depending on what code(s) you are learning.) If your remote starts refusing to learn more keys, it is probably full.

Will the Cinema6 support Satellite systems? If so, does it seem to support most of the functions well?

It does support various satellite manufacturers, though i cannot say how well. Mine uses a RF remote, so I'm stuck using it. It turns out that any button is in fact learnable as alfaman said, so I now have every component of my home theater (except the satellite) mapped to a clearly labeled button on what is a terrific remote for $20.

One more vote for the cinema6 from Walmart. An incredible deal for $20, if you liked the cinema7 you'll love the cinema6 and won't have to justify $300 for a remote control to your spouse.(Although the pronto does look pretty cool!)

Have also been very impressed with the tech support from one-for-all(one e-mail to tech support got me all the magic codes for extra functions not even included on the original remotes).

Was just about to spring (in desperation) for a SL9000 when I saw this post. Was currently using a Cinema 7, but it would not support an Adcom GSA-700 (preamp/processor/3-channel amp). Tried a Jensen SC-590 (wouldn't support Adcom despite label), then a learning remote from Radio Shack (wouldn't learn Adcom code, and very limited memory), when I stumbled upon this post. The pre-programmed codes, as I already knew, are very comprehensive, if sometimes illogically placed, and the new learning capability puts it over the top. I now have my Inteq TV, RCA DSS, Pioneer Laserdisc, Panasonic VCR, Sony ES CD, Adcom Preamp, and Technics DD/DTS Processor running on one remote! The best $20 I have ever spent. To top it off, it is also one of the most powerful remotes I have ever used, as I never have to consciously point it at a device for it to work.

Would anyone know if the cinema 6 covers the following:
TV: Sony
AMP+Reciever+Tape: Sony
CD: Pioneer (300 CDs)
VCR: Panasonic
Cable: Samsung

Another question:
My TV is connected to the Audio system, do you have to switch to the AMP mode in order to change volume, or can you force the volume button to be assigned to the AMP regardless of the current remote control mode. (can switch channel and volume without changing mode)?

Thanks

Yossi: Can't answer your first question, but the answer to the second one is "most likely". I know this is a feature on the pre-programmed Cinema 7. So I'm assuming it's also a feature on the Cinema 6.

After experimenting with many remotes I am highly satisfied with my new learning Cinema 6 remote.

After having to suffer from using the remote included my Sony STR-DA50ES the Cinema 6, (C6), is a joy to hold and use.

Question:
-----------

Has anyone else attemped to control their 50ES with the supplied Sony receiver codes? If so, are use able to sucessfully control the surround features of the 50ES?

If no, are there any "advanced codes" that may program my C6 to control the surround features of my 50ES?

I realize that I can learn the necesary codes into the remote, but I want to save the memory space for other stuff.

Last Question:
-----------------

What are the differences between the new Cinema 6 and the new Cinema 7?

P.S. Thank you One for All! I love my Cinema 6.
