 I can't believe Sony actually made this August 25, 2007
9 out of 11 found this review helpful
First of all, I'm a Sony man: Sony Bravia 46" LCD, Sony Receiver, Sony DVD player. Other than recoginizing the basic functions on these components, set-up was a nightmare! The software kept using a pop up message that was irrelevant to set-up and would not go away and would not let me get to the actual software to run the remote. This was the same on 3 different computers. I uninstalled and downloaded from Sony Website with same pitifull results. Next I tried the manual install of source codes. It listed only one DirecTV model number for my Hughes receiver. Guess what? It didn't work. Sony has no technical support other than pre-assumed questions on their website. Don't buy it. There is no way that Sony made this....unless it's by the same company selling them laptop batteries!
 Excellent remote control. June 26, 2007

Works really fine. The IR signal is very strong and all the functions work perfectly...
A little hard to set up, but the software (CD included) helps a lot... it's worthy!!!
This is awesome December 25, 2007

I had read the reviews of this remote and therefore was prepared for a difficult time programming it to my 5 different system components.
As it turned out, however, using the USB connection (cable and software included), programming was a breeze. I can now turn on and off different combinations of components with one button.
But even without that magic, just not having to use three different remotes to watch a DVD or switch from a DVD to my DVR was worth the price.
If I could wave a magic wand and make this product absolutely perfect for me, I would make it a tad narrower (because I have short fingers), and give it blue-tooth capability so it would work with the new PS3 systems.
I would highly recommend this product! You won't be sorry you made the investment.
 You have to be an M.I.T. grad to program this thing!! January 22, 2008

My wife bought me the Sony commander for Christmas and, almost a month later, I still haven't got this thing figured out yet. I can't believe how complicated programming this remote is. The accompanying software isn't user friendly at all. X-press settings -- forget about it!! I owned the earlier version of this same remote which, unfortunately, fizzled out but it was much easier to program manually. I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone and it's difficult to believe that this is an actual Sony product.
 GREAT REMOTE WITH PATIENCE March 8, 2008

After reading all the reviews I finaly purchased the remote. The only flexible way to program the unit [as stated by many others] is through the Advanced computer USB Sync mode. Once you get over the hurdle of the first Advance programing of your various remotes the Sony remote will have to be updated for your paticular system set up. This is where the unit SHINES. You can amend your Advanced setups very quickly once you truly understand your systems needs. There is no way anyone would be able to set up the Sony AX 4000A and get all of your individual parameters figured out the first time. All my AV gear is from different manfactures, Projector, TV, Receiver, Cable Box, and a DVD Player. My kids use to laugh at me when I would line up the 6 remotes, eye glasses and flashlight to enjoy a movie. 6th remote is for a Hunter fan/light which does not use IR technology. Now I use the Sony Remote and the Hunter Fan/Light remote, no eye glasses the lighted screen is Great. Yes the first time to set up the remote can be very overwhellming but like any modern day computer based device given time you can become very proficient at it's use. I hope it works well for you maybe not the first time you set it up but maybe by the 4th or 5th time you will have this baby dialed in. Best of Luck
