the philips volume buttons (and mute) "punch through" all the other devices to the receiver's volume control.
from www.amazon.com
some reviews have complained about the placement of the mute button or that not enough buttons are there.

by default, the volume and mute buttons send commands to your tv if a video device is selected and to your amp if an audio device is selected, but you can very easily set it to always use the tv's or

the commander to integrate the audio, so that no matter which device button you've last pressed, using the volume up or down buttons will always raise or lower the volume (the mute works also).
from www.amazon.com
there is also a "volume lock" feature, so no matter what component i'm controlling, the volume and mute buttons are always locked on my home theater receiver.
from www.amazon.com
ir is actually more convenient (particularly the mute button) than the one that came with rhe tv.
from www.amazon.com
for example, the tv device on mine controls the power on the tv, the chanels and menus on the cable box, and the volume and muting on the receiver.

watch a dvd and the forward and rewind buttons control the dvd while the volume and mute buttons control your av receiver.

Logitech H550

from www.amazon.com
it controls everything in my house (i only gave it a 4 because it couldn't mute my kids)!!
from www.amazon.com
also, if you can go without the "mute" and "previous" buttons, go with the cheaper 520 model.
from www.amazon.com
and its nice not to go though 5 remotes just to find the correct one to put the tv on mute.
from www.amazon.com
the mute and prev (previous channel) button are well placed and for the night owls, all the buttons glow for late-night channel surfing.
from www.amazon.com
thus we must use our tv remote to mute the tv and to switch among input sources.

since if it currently trying to control the cable box or dvd the volume button does nothing until i tell it to control the tv then change the volume but you can press mute from any area and it works.
from www.amazon.com
also, the bottom of the remote is rounded, so if you have the remote on the coffee table and press a button (like to quickly mute the tv before picking up the phone), the whole remote rolls over on

and change the radio station, adjust volume or mute, from anywhere in the house.

on a normal programmable remote you will want to use punchthrough buttons to force things like the volume and mute buttons to always control your av reciever, even when the remote is set for the dvd

from www.amazon.com
to accomplish this i merely added another activity (watch tv w stereo) and programmed the stereo to come on, then also programmed the additional individual function of muting the tv.
from www.amazon.com
however, i have found in several instances that my tv gets muted when changing between activities.

this little baby is amazing - it's not only easy to use but also very powerful, before i was unable to keep anything on the table in front of my amp because the volume couldn't be reached by my
