Replacement remote control

    Hi guys,


    I have recently purchased what I think is a clone of the Vu+ solo2 box and I am fed up of the remote control that came with it as the button pressed don't always register and they are quite heavy to press.


    I have been looking around for a replacement controller and I am hoping that one of you guys can point me in the right direction. I found a nice looking One for all remote www.oneforall.co.uk/urc7962-smartcontrol-motion.html which I think will work with my box but I am concerned about losing some of the custom Vu+ features such as the straight to recordings button.


    Does anybody know of a good replacement remote control that atleast matches the default (but very 'clicky') remote control?


    Thanks!

    Try another remote if you can borrow one to make sure its the remote , with this box being as you think a clone it might be the box its self , another check is to use the camera on your phone and see if its hit and miss with some buttons by looking at the ir sender on the remote thru the camera , best be sure before throwing more money away

    Great idea, will try that. A friend of mine has the same box and uses a touch screen universal remote which he swears by but it's £100+ and some of the functionality is missing (record button).


    I wonder if I purchase a genuine Vu+ remote control it a) work with the clone and b) be lighter to operate (easier to press buttons)

    IF I was you I would sell the clone and get an original and you can use a duo 2 remote on it if you fancy a nicer remote for £25 extra , cut your losses now instead of throwing money away once more
