I have a sony str-d590 that i want to control** A: Go to RCA's website, download the digital copy of the manual, and look for your particular old receiver. My TV wasn't specifically listed, but there were 4 codes for the brand. The first one worked. Based on my personal experience, I think it will probably work. But, you know, it is only about $7, live dangerously and take a chance! **Q: Can I change the input with this remote?** A: It doesn't work on my tv and I have an RCA. THAT WAS THE SOLE PURPOSE I PURCHASED THE REMOTE SMH ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect! Full use of DVD player now *by on Reviewed in the United States May 22, 2025* This works perfectly. I easily programmed it using the first listed codes for DVD Player and TV. I wanted a compact design, not something huge and ugly. This is perfect. Compact, simple and cute.We needed this mainly so we could access the menu for our circa 2003 Zenith DVD player . With no remote (lost long ago) we could only push play, ff and rewind. With multi-episode discs especially a problem. Now we can do it all! Our family enjoys watching DVDs and VHS tapes. It just feels different than streaming: doesn’t hook into endless options which is good for our brains, and we enjoy borrowing DVDs from the library. I am going to try to program with our VCR as well, which is not necessary but will be a bonus if it works, and I’ll update review if it does. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great basic remote! Worked with an odd duck of a TV *by on Reviewed in the United States July 30, 2016* I have a LCD Envision TV that is a number of years old....and somewhere along the way the original remote devloped legs and ran away. I had tried using a spare universal remote from our FIOS box but it was simply incompatible.I had a Logitech unit and all programming was through a USB port on the nose of it which ended up breaking the connector, so I needed to find something else.This time It was simple... TV works for where I use it but I need a remote... and one that can control the TV and honestly a DVD player as well at most.....found this simple 3-device remote for about five bucks--- great price and controls everything as needed.I did try the simple setup but it didn't control everything correctly. Then I tried the codes and the first controlled some things right, the second worked everyrhing perfectly.So in the end it is a very basic remote that lacks the frills and coolness of others and trades it for simplicity and good function. Definitely would buy again if I need another basic remote. ### ⭐ Pathetic Technical Support -- Don't Buy ANY RCA Remote Control Product *by on Reviewed in the United States December 28, 2018* I attempted to use this controller with a Sansui TV. The programming code that I used was one of several listed on the document, enclosed with the remote. Once it was programmed, I was able to turn the TV on and off. Volume worked great. The number key pad also worked. I was able to use all of the functions, except for the MENU button. Pushing the button did nothing with the TV. What did happen was after pushing the MENU button, the controller would blink 23 times, and then rapidly blink 3 more times. I suspected that this was an error code and so I tried to contact RCA, using the webpage that is referenced on the package. On the webpage, there is a link to send an e-mail.So I generated the e-mail and sent it off, asking for help to determine if the remote is physically broke or if there is a programming error on their part.Three times, I received back an e-mail that basically stated that I needed to consult the remote programming instructions on the website. The same information that was already in the package that came with the remote. So the first time, I did take a closer look at the website and confirmed that there was not something else that they might be referring to. There was nothing else. Clearly, they didn't even bother to read my e-mail. I could tell because each reply that I received back from them was the exact same words.After this non-sense, I contacted Amazon and they said that they would send me a second controller to see if the problem might be specific to the one controller. I received the second controller and put in new batteries. It didn't work. I took a closer look at it and the contact springs for the battery compartment needed to be extended. I took a knife blade and extended the springs. Putting the batteries back in, the controller started working. Clearly, poor quality control.I programmed the second controller and received the same resulting blinking LED error code. It appears that there is a manufacturing programming error, and that this error exists within all of the controllers.It is a shame that this problem could not have been resolved at the vendor/manufacturer level. Instead, both Amazon and I have had to waste time TESTING the manufacturer's controllers.I have never had such a disappointing result with any product. I strongly urge anyone reading this review to go with some other vendor's product. Clearly, RCA's response to my support requests, is indicative of a company that really doesn't care about supporting the products that they sell.I would recommend that Amazon drop this vendor. ## Frequently Bought Together - RCA 3-Device Palm-Sized Universal Remote, Long Range IR, Replaces Most Major Remote Brands, Designed for Comfort, RCR503BE - Roku Express | HD Roku Streaming Device with Standard Remote (no TV controls), Free & Live TV - Universal TV Remote for Samsung,LG, Sony, Sharp, Vizio, Philips, Toshiba, Sanyo, TCL, Hisense, Insignia, Panasonic and More Brand Smart TVs --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1258429-3-device-palm-sized-universal-remote-long-range-ir-replaces](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1258429-3-device-palm-sized-universal-remote-long-range-ir-replaces) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-09-22*
