    Got one of these today, works on my Skybox, Mitsubishi tv & vcr, Yamada 6100, Sony amp and tuner, all for €6.99. Only glitch is power on/off the tuner but it has all the Skybox functions, just a case of remembering the keys!.

    I've got one too, but I couldn't get it to work the Sky DigiBox - how did you set it up? Great value remote though, everything else works perfectly, even on the tiny brand name stuff.

    Well, mine is a Panasonic box and I just went through the codes or you could try the `search`, you`ll have to fool around to find which buttons work what but I can access all the menus, the only thing it won`t do,yet, is scroll forward in time in the EPG.

    I got one some months ago, and after the first week, I threw it in a corner as I thought it was crappy. I prefer One For All remotes generally. The Lidl remote is good value, just not my cup of tea, I guess!

    i got one of these remote controls and it works everything for me - as far as i am concerned it is brilliant. First one I found that works with Chorus box.

    I got a 12 in 1 universal remote in a pound shop today for €2. It's a bit cheapy plasticcy but it works perfect with any device i can find in the house.


    Well worth the money. :)
