Hi,

After many months of slow progress, we recently finished off our home theater room - it's great (projector w/ 100" screen). Local HD OTA was very nice, but we just got our D* installed - so far it is great as well. OK, I do wish they had more HD content, but that's a different story.

We got two receivers - the standard SD for another room and a HR10-250 TiVo for the HT room For the HT room, I probably won't use the remote that came with it, we have a Harmony 880 that we'll be using. However for the other SD room, I'd like to use the D* remote to control the receiver, TV, VCR & a preamp (for volume control). The problem I'm having (after a quick glance of the manual) is that it seems that the D* remote will only accept devices on their list that are pre-set. In my case, I'd like to use my existing Pre-amp and it is not on the list (it is a Classe). Does anyone know if this remote has a learning function so I could transfer the info to this remote? I'm mostly interested in volume up, down & mute.

Thanks - not that we are installed, I'll probably be posting more!
