8300 DVR and Harmony Remotes

[diamatron]

I just wanted to know if anyone here used the Harmony 880 remote for their TW setups?

I have the H688 and it works wonderfully with the SA 8300 HD.

When the DVR ask you to hit yellow to erase, blue to save or red to cancel.... How does your 688 work?

I used to have a Harmony 676 and it didn't have as many buttons on it as the remote TW gives you. The red, blue, and yellow buttons had to be programed at the top of the remote where it was very awkward to press them. I much preferred the TW remotes setup, especially the number buttons, so I got rid of the Harmony. I use the TW remote to control the 8300HD, receiver, OTA tuner, and dvd player. The only time i use another remote is when I want to change inputs on the receiver.

I have my ABC buttons as the three buttons running vertically to the right of the lcd screen. It works out pretty well, as those six buttons (three to the left as well) are fully programmable.
