    Remote Control, help needed ...

    On the offchance someone else has experienced this problem it might be worth asking ...

    I just got myself a nice touchscreen all in one remote, works great with all my stuff and upgraded the software from the net for my TV which then worked fine. Although my freeview box is being a pain - whenever I teach it to the remote (it doens't have it as standard) the buttons will work when I press them, but they can't be pressed one after each other, for eg if I want channel 11, I'll end up with channel 1 - no matter how long I leave it it'll still only get one press untill I press another key. The remote is sending the command (the little light comes on at the front).

    If I teach a command for another bit of my gear it works fine, its just my freeview box.

    The remote is the OneForAll Mosaic (thanks to Howard for the recommendation), and the freeview box is the Wharfedale DV832B (looks like a Matsui rebrand - I've tryed all the Matsui sat/TV codes already).

    Heres a picture of the remote (just because I want to show you guys it, not because its of any use, lol).

    perhaps whilst teaching it you need to press the button for less time? my old touchscreen remote has 2 modes - one for continuous (volume control etc) and one for everything else - it learned one or the other depending how long you left it for

    Well I've sorted it - I needed to download the extra Goodmans remote firmware and then use the code 1284

    Just incase anyone else needs it.

    I had no end of hastle with my Oneforall. Everyone on AVforums said i should have got a M1 explorer remote, much better and cheeper. So i did and they were right, awsome remote. Much MUCH better build quality too.

    I'm probably going to get one of the Logitech Harmony remotes when I move soon... dunno which one, but so long as it works with MCE as well
