It`s widely accepted the Vu remotes are not very good,I have 2 which are as bad as each other.Does anyone know if it`s possible to buy one of the touchscreen universal remotes for the Vu Duo2?
Thanx.

Yup Im also interested if anyone has it working? The VU remote control is completely useless
I have a logitech harmony touch remote which worked quite well with my solo2.
The wife could never get to grips with it though as it was controlling a number of devices.
I have read reports that it also works well with the duo2 (may needs a few minor tweaks though)
From what I remember, it was pretty easily setup as VU is in its database.
When I got my duo2, I dumped the original remote (found it unresponsive) and purchased a genuine replacement solo2 remote which works perfectly.

I'll dig it out later tonight and confirm weather it works or not.
Ive just been reading up on the Logitech Harmony remotes.They seem to be the ones to go for.
Thanx codar for the input.

The genuine solo2 remote seems to function much better than remotes for other vu models

I have one of these, bought 2 Christmas's ago on an Amazon flash deal, can't rate it highly enough
It runs solo2, smart tv, av amp, ps4 (basic functions only) and official sky box
When I search for the genuine solo2 remote it just shows the same remote I already have,with the description for solo2/duo2. How do I know I`m not just buying the same remote with the same problems?

A lot of knock-offs out there.

vu zero remote works well on duo2 also.
Sorry, but no.
You've got me interested in it again to be honest.
I bought it on amazon, price has fallen since I purchased it.
Down to £99
This is the one I bought

codar m8,did you see if your remote works with the duo2? I`m going to buy one,just need reassuring it will work.Also one other query.The description states it works with windows 7,Vista and XP. Will it work with Windows 10?

It 100% does if your talking about the Harmony Touch, I use one with my solo2 and all other devices, it supports all current VU models
One more quuestion Prophet,before I take the plunge.Do you have to point the remote directly at your Vu for it to work?That`s the biggest problem I have with the Vu remotes.
bo.

Didn't get a chance but had a quick look in the setup and duo2 is listed as supported.
I ordered one yesterday.

Just for more input i have used the Harmony series of remotes for the last ten years my last purchase was the harmony one around 5 years ago and its still going strong this controls my A/V Amp, Nvidia Shield TV, Vu+ Solo 4K and other devices with ease. Personally i never use the supplied remote with any new product i buy as the Harmony takes less than a minute to setup with its online database of remote codes
