[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1611214, member: 131855"] If you can borrow a remote long enough to trigger the setup / pairing process many universal remotes work with the Apple TV. I paired one of the RCA universal remotes successfully and it works fine. There is one trick to setting up a universal remote though. Normally you "teach" the new remote the commands from a working remote. Wit the Apple TV you do the opposite. It shows you a function on the screen and you push the button on the remote that you want to perform that function.
