Review: Good remote for your Xbox media center - The Xbox 360 can play DVDs, downloaded videos, videos streamed from your PC, Windows Media Center integration, Netflix integration, and don't forget music playback and picture viewing. With all this, the standard wireless gamepad isn't up to the task. It times out and powers off after a few minutes, leaving you waiting... and waiting... and waiting for it to reconnect if you want to simply pause your video, much less do anything more complicated. Even then you have to navigate the on-screen menus and it's generally inconvenient. This is where the Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote comes in. Don't buy this remote if you want a real "universal" remote. Beyond controlling the Xbox, it can barely do much more than turn on your TV and change the input. But as an affordable solution for controlling media playback on your Xbox it is perfect. It has all the buttons you'd want, and because it works by IR instead of wireless, it responds instantly and the batteries will last a long time -- just like any other standard remote. You do of course have to point it at your Xbox to work. The area in which it will pick up the signal is wide enough that you won't have to worry about pointing it at just the right spot, like I've had to do with some DVD players I've owned. The buttons light up so you don't have to struggle to find the function you want in the dark. If you're like me and use your Xbox 360 to watch a lot of stuff and want a good reasonably priced remote to replace the wireless gamepad, get it. With it, my Xbox has easily replaced my upscaling DVD player. If you want a truly universal remote that controls everything in your living room, look elsewhere, like the Logitech Harmony series. Review: Remote works get! - This remote works great. It controls the xbox, and all the apps on the xbox including Netflix, Hulu, and Media Center. Now my wife can watch here shows on Netflix and Hulu and not run the batteries down on my game controllers. I like the fact that you only have to hit the On/Off button to turn on and off the Xbox. No more holding the Big X button down for ever. I also like that it can control the TV also. It took me a while to get the code for the TV to work, but after about 10 minutes of making it automatically scan for the code, I finally got it to lock one in that would work for the power, channel, volume, and the input. I didn't take away any stars for it, but it won't control the volume on my surround sound, which I knew before buying it but it would still be nice. We watch a lot of digital movies, that get from copying our Blu-Rays, on the Xbox and before with the game controller I couldn't fast forward or rewind when watching the movies via Media Center. With this remote I can, but instead of using the fast forward and rewind buttons, you have to short press the skip forward and back buttons. It isn't a true fast forward, as it will only skip forward a minute and some change and you can't stop on a particular spot, but at least you can go forward if you accidentally hit Restart Movie and you were half way through it. It also has back lit keys so you can see what buttons you are pushing if you are watching a movie in the dark. I chose this one over the new remote that Microsoft has out, even though the new one matches my Elite, because of the the back lit keys, the Media Center Button,and it has been reported that the new one tends to lose connection especially if you don't point it right at the Xbox. This one doesn't need to be point right at the Xbox, just in the general direction. All in all, this controller is great, and not picking up a dead gaming controller all the time is an added bonus for me. I definitely recommend this remote. ## Features - 360 EN/FR/ES HDWR ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000B6MLSM | | Additional Features | Backlit, Universal | | Battery Type | Alkaline | | Best Sellers Rank | #34,407 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #6 in Xbox 360 Remotes | | Brand | Microsoft | | Button Quantity | 43 | | Color | gray | | Compatible Devices | Xbox 360 | | Connectivity Technology | Infrared | | Controller Type | Button Control | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (632) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00115971252881, 00882224023818 | | Item Weight | 0.63 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Microsoft | | Maximum Number of Supported Devices | 1 | | Maximum Range | 30 Feet | | Mfr Part Number | B4O-00001 | | Model Name | B4O-00001 | | Model Number | B4O-00001 | | Number of Batteries | 2 AAA batteries required. | | UPC | 882224023818 115971252881 | ## Images ![Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51DwFUOstsL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good remote for your Xbox media center *by E***I on January 27, 2009* The Xbox 360 can play DVDs, downloaded videos, videos streamed from your PC, Windows Media Center integration, Netflix integration, and don't forget music playback and picture viewing.

In fact, I like remote controls so much that I have acquired quite the large collection of them. If you come into my house and walk into the living room, you will find that my entire coffee table is covered with dozens and dozens of remote controls. The majority of these remote controls are touted as "universal". But what is universal, anyway? Some may think that a universal remote control should work with any device, anything and everything which is electronic and can be controlled with a remote. You know what I say to that? Phooey! Universal remotes never work with every device, silly! Don't you know that "universal remote" is an oxymoron?! But is the Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote the exception? This remote controls it all, doesn't it? Wrong! The Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote controls my Xbox 360, as do the four wireless Xbox 360 controllers sitting on my coffee table among the array of other universal remotes. What else does the Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote control? Well, I'm able to control TV's volume, channels, and power. There's at least 23 other universal remotes on the coffee table that do that job as well. Was the Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote easy to program? Heck no! Why not? Well first off, the manual that comes with the Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote doesn't have codes for individual TV brands so it can be easily programmed to work with the TV right off the bat. The instructions state that I could get those on the Xbox 360 support website, but let me tell you this: no amount of my searching on Xbox website could turn up said TV codes. I did find a webpage which was basically a copy of my manual which stated that I could go to the website to find the codes, but was there a link to this area? What do you think? The instructions also stated that if I could not find my TV code, I could blindly program the device by pushing one of the buttons repeatedly to see if anything happened with my TV. Once my TV changes a channel or powers off, I will then have discovered the unknown code for my TV and could expect that the remote will work from that point forward, allowing me to move on from there. After trying this method for an hour or so and having no luck with it, I called the Xbox 360 telephone support people. "I bought an Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote and I need the code to make it work with my Sony television." This is a simple request, right? Apparently not so uncomplicated for the Xbox 360 support team. First off, the person I spoke with could barely speak English, let alone understand it. Then when I finally got the point across, she acted like she didn't know what an Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote was. She thought I was talking about the wireless controller and that the controller should just "work" without a code. No, no, no! When I finally was able to make her understand that I had the Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote, she stated that those codes could be found on the Xbox 360 support website. I assume she read this answer from her computer monitor after she finally typed in the correct problem issue, but nevertheless, she still acted as if she never knew an Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote existed before that point. I explained I could not find said codes on their website, and believe it or not, the girl could not come up with a code for me and had to transfer me to a level two support tech. After much rigmarole, placing me on hold repeatedly while searching by the Xbox 360 level two support tech for nearly an hour, I was finally given a few codes and one of them actually worked. And now you know what it takes to complete the process of programming this remote! Meanwhile, I have added yet another universal remote to my collection; the unique one out of the five devices I currently own that control my Xbox 360 (as the four wireless controllers already perform many if not all of the functions on the Xbox 360), and the only white one out of 24 other remotes that control most of the primary functions on my television. Do I need the Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote for any reason? Probably not. Well, no; I absolutely do not need it. Not at all. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/438673-xbox-360-universal-media-remote](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/438673-xbox-360-universal-media-remote) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
