Question

Magic Remote

Apr 14, 2014 5:47PM PDT

Hello,

I'm trying to set up LG magic remote set-top box feature to control GM Triplex receiver. Unfortunately, LG has no Golden Media as manufacturer to select, but I can't continue setup without choosing manufacturer.
There are many brands listed, so maybe exists other brands/receivers with same or compatible remote?

If yes could you please name some?
There are Dreambox listed and many many more.

Thanks!

Are you searching for universal remotes?

If so, many look at the Logitech Harmony line.

No LG Magic remote has "Universal Remote" function, I'm trying to set it up. Unfortunately I'm not successful right now.
Currently local LG support response are very formal and dosen't help at all.

So the LG universal fails to do the job. I hear the same story on other makes so again, look to Logitech.
