Does anyone know where the best vendor is for a replacement HR10-250 remote? The button labels have literally worn off ours and the wife is complaining. I would like to move to a Logitech Harmony remote, but I had a hard enough time getting the family used to the HR10-250 remote.

Any ideas for the OEM remote? Weaknees?

Get a Harmony 688... has all the DVR buttons and avery well laid out. You can control your whole system with it - one remote for everything.

Can't tell from the picture. Does that remote have the Ratio button?

I'm not sure...the one from Weaknees appears to be a direct clone...I have also
seen some on e-bay...

I just bought one of the $29 replacements from Weaknees. Would have bought the $49 one that apppears to be an exact replica of the original, but they're out-of-stock and they told me they're not expecting any more.

The $29 one DOES have a button for "Ratio," however, it is labeled "Window." The only thing that seems to be missing entirely is the "List" button. That said, I kind of prefer this one, as the TV Power button is way up at the top, instead of being just above the "1" button -- I was continually hitting that by accident and turning off the TV.

Thanks. I think I am going to go this route.
