The Pioneer Universal Remote is one in a line of many universal remote controls manufactured by RCA. The Pioneer allows you to control all your entertainment center components with just the one remote. These components include your TV, DVD player, cable and stereo and must be programmed into the remote. The Pioneer removes the need for a clutter of remote controls on your coffee table and seamlessly switches from one device to another.
