Hopper 40.0 UHF Remote

[DrDecay]

I am trying to program my new Hopper remote (model 40.0 UHF) to my Denon AVR-3801 receiver. I am trying to program it in AUX mode. I have tried all the codes. The only function that works is turning the Denon OFF. Can't turn it on, can't do volume, can't do MUTE. I remember the last upgrade I received from Dish... They told me the remote couldn't be programmed for my Denon. I found a way via their own manual! Today, the Dish support told me the remote is too new and they don't have codes to control any AV receivers! This is 2012, remotes should be automatic! Any help here?

If you have the Denon's remote, you can use the learning mode on the 40.0 to "teach" it commands.

Tried that, didn't work. It learned the functions evidently, according to the blinks. But it could still not function. Dish says the 40.0 UHF remote is too new to have AV Receiver functional codes.

Unfortunately, we can not guarantee the remote will be compatible with all equipment out there. When was your Hopper installed?

My 40.0 controls my Denon AVR-1705 just fine. Have you scrolled through all the codes when programming the remote.

As long as the Denon uses infrared it can be programmed using the learning mode. If it didn't work for you then keep trying.. Just remember that it will only hold a limited amount of commands. If you keep learning new commands, it will overwrite earlier ones. But I haven't found a Denon yet that it wouldn't control by just programming the code the normal way.
