NFL Remote Control from DIRECTV

[papa_azteca]

I called in today to add the ESPN football package and while I had the agent on the phone I was going to have her order me a replacement remote control. She saw that I was a Houston Texan fan (how do they know that? I remember being asked for my favorite NFL team about 3 years ago so is this on my file?) and stated that starting on 08/07/08 I would be able to order a remote control with the Texans logo on it. I asked for the price and she said it was $30. I asked if this was an RF remote and she said that she didn’t have this information. But she stated that I would have to order it via directv.com/nflremotes after the 7th.

Anyone have any information about these NFL remotes? I may purchase a Cowboys remote for my father for his birthday because he only has standard receivers and doesn’t need RF. I may purchase one for me down the road if they are available in RF.

I have looked, I see no mention of a NFL branded remote anywhere online. I guess we wait a week to learn.
An NFL remote would be cool, so would one that carried a logo from the NBA or MLB

[DCSholtis]

Raider remote is all mine if true....:D

[DBSNewbie]

... An NFL remote would be cool, so would one that carried a logo from the NBA or MLB

College Logos would be nice, too.

[CJTE]

Yes, when a DirecTV agent asks you what your favorite NFL team is, they write that down on your account.

[JACKIEGAGA]

NY Football GIANTS remote would look lovely in my house.I must get one if this is the case

[Sackchamp56]

Raider remote is all mine if true....:D

Me too Brotha!:icon_hroc :icon_hroc

[SDizzle]

I will get one too, but I'm not gonna tell you guys which one I will get...

[tonyd79]

I will get one too, but I'm not gonna tell you guys which one I will get...

Rams, right?

[SDizzle]

Rams, right?

Close.......... Same division:lol:

[steevew6]

Is it true the Raiders remote has no fast forward button??

[Juanus]

Is it true the Raiders remote has no fast forward button??

I heard the Raiders remote has the power off button renamed to "We Lost Again" :hurah:

[SDizzle]

:lol: :lol: :lol: There's also a button for northern CA customers labeled "Blackout", since their broke fans don't sell them out, so they are not on local TV......:lol: :lol: :lol:

[SParker]

A Detroit Lions remote... then my neighbor can intercept my signal.

[sticketfan]

sign me up for a redskins remote if it is true. what a tremendous night last night as green and monk both went to the hall of fame

[Athlon646464]

Pats remote for this house!

Hmmmmmmm - I wonder if there is a way to cheat my way into getting two for the price of one......... Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

:nono:

[tcusta00]

Pats remote for this house!

Hmmmmmmm - I wonder if there is a way to cheat my way into getting two for the price of one......... Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

So does this mean you're a Pats fan or not a Pats fan? :scratchin

[lowmazda]

The buttons on the Pats remote all do the same thing. 'Record'

[Athlon646464]

So does this mean you're a Pats fan or not a Pats fan? :scratchin

I am, just thought I'd say it before someone else did........ :D

[thrombus]

The buttons on the Pats remote all do the same thing. 'Record'
Yeah, but only the opposing team. :)

[bonscott87]

If they seriously do this then I'm all in for a Bears remote. I actually do use the DirecTV remote for football vs. my MX-700 because I use the interactive features a lot and it's easier with the DirecTV remote. Bring it!

[VegasDen]

I may try to get the Packers remote. It will stop working, shed tears, then start working again. :)

[merchione]

Man I hope this is true! I want one for my first NFL season ticket!

[totoros]

Not sure if they are RF ones but I heard they have the backlight and will be limited.

[BlueSnake]

I just might have to try and Steel one ....... ;)

[jsmuga]

There is also a link on the NFL Supercasts page on the D* webpage. It takes you to the regular remotes so it probably will be working soon. So it is going to happen.

[sacalait]

WOO-HOO! :icon_da:

Guess I'll have to order one.

[raoul5788]

My choice would be a GIANT size remote!:lol:

[sigma1914]

I guess my Dad will get the only Cardinals remote produced, since he's probably the only fan in Directv's ST database. :lol:

[mcees4life]

I was in Canton for the festivities (Skins fan) and Directv had a tent set-up where they were trying to recruit new customers. They had all 32 NFL Team remotes on the table and were offering a free team remote to all new customers who would sign up. The remotes are awesome. They are in the teams respective colors and have the logo of the team on the remote. There is also a button on the side of the remote that you can press to illuminate the remote and its buttons so that you can see it while in a dark environment. The rep told me that it will be available for order on Directv's website in the next 7 to 10 days (this was on Saturday). I am getting my Skins remote ASAP

Very cool. You didn't happen to take a picture, did you?

[d max82]

I wonder when the "How do I get an NFL remote for free?" threads will begin. :rolleyes:

I see the Niners and Giants are both having attendance issues. The ownership of both groups figured they'd have sellouts and tremendous attendance no matter what product they put on the field. The fans are finally letting themselves be heard.

For me, I'll have to keep my DirecTV logo. I'm trying to become a Cardinal fan, but my heart is still in SF.

[mjlthuston]

Is it true the Raiders remote has no fast forward button??

Every button you push makes it go backwards. :lol:

[George Lewis]

WOO-HOO! :icon_da:

Nice to see another Saints fan :)

I NEED this remote in Black and Gold!

[ATARI]

Does the Patriots remote have a CHOKE button?

:D

[DCSholtis]

I may try to get the Packers remote. It will stop working, shed tears, then start working again. :)

You mean it will stop working, shed tears, ask for more money, then return to normal working order. :D

[merchione]

Does the Patriots remote have a CHOKE button?

:D

no but they have a 18-1 button

[puffnstuff]

will post pictures when I get home from hall of fame . Dtv had a booth with all of them . Sorry about punc. posting from my dare in the middle of bf ohio.

[coota]

Send me a Cowboy remote. Want Rf though.

[SDizzle]

Send me a Cowboy remote. Want Rf though.

It is RF

[dcowboy7]

no but they have a 19-1 button

18-1.

[sacalait]

Does the Patriots remote have a CHOKE button?

:D

Also be careful. It has been reported that the Patriots remote cause your DVR to start recording all the games every week. :hurah:

But it won't be the remotes fault, because it wasn't clear in the rules.

[ATARI]

You mean it will stop working, shed tears, ask for more money, then return to normal working order. :D

And it will change color from green and gold to purple and gold (you know it's going to happen ;) )

[hbkbiggestfan]

I can't wait for Chiefs Red & Gold remote to shine on my coffee table and in my hand!

[dhines]

outstanding :up:

sounds like i have yet another way to annoy my cowboy hating friends and relatives.

[caimakale]

I would order a Dolphins remote but I'm afraid I would lose it.

I wonder if I could use the skip button to go through QB's until I find one I like?:confused:

[Dirac]

I want to get a Packers remote.

I guess they phased them out back in March but they just brought them back. I'm going to buy it just to keep in my entertainment center so no one else can use it. I got a Cal remote a few years back and I'm sticking with that one.

[caimakale]

J! E! T! S! Jets Jets Jets!

I would consider the Dolphins remote if the mute button would force a sock in the mouths of everyone chanting that! :lol:

[Steve Robertson]

I would consider the Dolphins remote if the mute button would force a sock in the mouths of everyone chanting that! :lol:

Boy am I with you on that one

[JLucPicard]

I awlays thought it was kind of cute that Jets fans were proud that they learned how to spell the name of their team.

I guess the rest of us don't feel it's necessary to boast about our spelling words! :lol:

[ddpoohndave]

I will def order one and but it on my BILL

GO BUFFALO!!

Probably the only thing about the Chiefs that will shine! :lol:

[MattDing]

Dammit!

I was at the Hall of Fame on Saturday and completely missed the DirecTV tent. :(

[puffnstuff]

I've got pictures but need to downgrade them or what ever to post , any help ?

[dshu82]

I cannot believe that even though I have absolutely no need for another remote, I am probably going to end up with one anyway! Maybe just to get under my fiance's skin, cause she is a Browns fan.

Go Steelers!

[dave29]

Not sure if they are RF ones but I heard they have the backlight and will be limited.

if they are backlit, then they will likely be RF

[puffnstuff]

Working on pictures now . Redskins one has all championship dates on the back also .

[JLucPicard]

Redskins one has all championship dates on the back also .
I'll bet the Vikings one does, too! [turns it over, sees FCC sticker! :lol:]

[FireMedic8039]

I would consider the Dolphins remote if the mute button would force a sock in the mouths of everyone chanting that! :lol:Been to camp 3 times the past 2 weeks. Henne is doing awesome. And the Ronnie and Ricky show. They are lean and cut.

About the Jets thing. You know what Jets stands for?
Just End The Season.
J-E-T-S suck suck suclk!!!!

First time caller, long time listener

They look REAL sweet...... Any confirmation on a sale date?

I just got of the phone with a 2nd tier CSR that had no clue what I was talking about. He thanked me about a thousand times for cluing him in.

I bet one of those would look nice wrapped in a Terrible Towel

[loudo]

Yes, when a DirecTV agent asks you what your favorite NFL team is, they write that down on your account.
You can list all of that on your DirecTV account page, under "Email Subscriptions & Interests/Sports Interests"

A few years ago, when I subscribed to Center Ice, DirecTV sent me a sheet, of stickers, with all of the NHL team logos on it. We could choose our favorite team and put their logo on our remote. Sound like they are doing the same for the NFL teams. This is not the first time they have done something like this.

[loudo]

I understand that. I was just saying it is on the same idea, but it is a lot better the new way. The CI thing was just to put a sticker of your favorite team on your remote. I would like to see them do that for the CI package.

[jclarke9999]

Well it's after midnight here on the east coast and nothing yet, guess I will check back in the morning. Don't go ordering all the 49er remotes overnight now ;)

Order placed. 24th from the top. Man, I sure hope they can update the drop-down so you can actually pick the team. When I ordered, the drop-down box was just 32 lines of "$30.00"! Just the price. Had to add to cart, check which team, add another, check which team, then when I found the RIGHT one, empty cart and choose the VIKINGS!

[JLucPicard]

Interesting...

I just went back into my account to see if it changed the credit card on file since I used a different one for this order and it didn't.

When I clicked "View All Orders", listed on today's date for this order under "Installation & Delivery" it shows "Shipped" and under "Shipping Status/Appointment" it shows "Completed". Too funny!

so even though youre in bengals area, since they are on the way down and the browns are on the way up, im sure you ordered the browns one..right? LOL

[ncxcstud]

You guys are all goofy. This is the ONLY good looking one... :lol:

So, not only does God get to watch his favorite team, but he gets to watch me, watch TV? Awesome. I so want one :)

[Mike Huss]

Watch the Hard Knocks show on HBO tonight? I'm not even a Cowboys fan and enjoyed watching it.

You bet I did! Signed up for HBO just for it. I enjoyed the first episode as well. The T.O./Pacman duel is pretty fun to watch.

If you hit the select button, with this remote, Jerry Jones will fire you, telling the news media, but not letting you know about it.

Got my order in, but had a heck of a time getting the correct remote selected. Anyone else have the same problem? Also I wonder how long it will be to we receive it?

Yeah, I had a hard time figuring out which one was which. Started at the top and just started putting them all in the the shopping cart until I found the right one. I assume they'll get that fixed....maybe even SOON.... :lol:

Yeah I started doing the same thing, then I just said screw it and went to the very last one on the list and it happened to be the correct one! :lol: Maybe it's a sign they don't think the Bears will be very good this year? Sadly that might be the case.

A different paint scheme on a stock remote you get for free with the box and voila!, DirecTV has just extracted more money from you guys. I wish I could do the same just as easily with my software.

You got that right! We are indeed a bunch of lemmings. :lol:

The only other "sport" where they can sucker more fans with branding than the NFL does would be NASCAR. I've never seen so many people buy stuff just because their favorite star endorses it than NASCAR fans do. At least the NFL is mostly just a team loyalty thing. If Jr. endorsed Depends adult diapers there would be millions sold just because he said so. :lol:

It seems to be a problem with Firefox, it works fine with IE which I really hate using.

[Mike Huss]

It seems to be a problem with Firefox, it works fine with IE which I really hate using.

I tried IE Tab and that wasn't any different than FF. I didn't actually start IE to see if that would have worked. I found it ok with FF eventually.

Ironically I got a site survey request while I was looking at the remotes, so I made sure to tell them that while ordering the NFL remote the selection list didn't work right on FF. I assume they'll have it fixed before they get the survey results, but hopefully reading those results will remind them to code for ALL browsers next time instead of just that POS IE.

[lovswr]

I couldn't get the order process to work with Firefox 3.0 so had to use IE (sigh).
to pick my team.


hmmmmm FF 2.06 worked just fine. Ordered the Falcons. The shame, the shame! :D

[ATARI]

And it will change color from green and gold to purple and gold (you know it's going to happen ;) )

Correction --> green and white.

Prediction for Jets and Packers --> both teams will go 8-8 this season.

[dtrell]

not IE 6.0....friggin work computer

worked fine for me on IE 6.0..put browns remote into shopping cart, checked out, got ripped off for tax, and order was placed and shows as already shipped.

Good luck vying for second place in the division.

[kruegs]

Silly question... my old man has an ancient Hughes "Directors Pack" SD receiver. He is a huge Giants fan, and I would love to get one of these for him. Anyone know if this will work with his old non-DirectTV branded receiver? Go Giants!!

[ltrain20]

Cowboy remote on the way!!!

It would be nice if they could get college teams but I bet that would be a huge hassel!!

[DBSNewbie]

Tried ordering with Firefox, IE, and Netscape, but when I got to the order page, there was no listing of the NFL teams.

Were the pictures supposed to be able to be clicked on to select the remotes? Because on my computer, nothing happened.

There was just a drop down of the prices (32 of them) and I had to "count" them down so that I could get to the correct ones.

After a series of "misses", I finally got to the right remotes.

Anybody else having this problem on D*'s website?

Yep, had the same issue as well. One I wanted was the last one on the pull down menu!

[BigJ52]

Just noticed on their site it now has the team names in the drop down instead of having just $30.

[DBSNewbie]

Just noticed on their site it now has the team names in the drop down instead of having just $30.

Still only drop down with $30.00 for me. (FF, IE, and Netscape)

[murry27409]

yep I had to do the same last nite...it seems that is happening to everyone.

Fixed?
I was just @ the site, and the drop down list had the team names.
(using FF 2.0.0.16)

GIANTS remote on its way!!

[BigJ52]

Still only drop down with $30.00 for me. (FF, IE, and Netscape)

hhhmmm, I don't know try closing your IE browser and going back in :confused: . I see the team names now.

[merchione]

I still cant see them:scratch:

[paulman182]

It worked fine for me early this morning.

[Mike728]

I didn't see any names next to the $30 prices. Just figured the Bears would be the last one on the list, which they were, and ordered it. :)

Go Bears!

[Mike Huss]

I tried it again now. I restarted FF 3.0 and checked with IE 7.0 as well, and both were $30 up and down the list. But like I said, I found the Cowboys one by searching so I got what I needed anyway. But for the record it the list of teams didn't work for me still just minutes ago.

[dtrell]

I don't know who got screwed more. Me not getting my Steelers remote or you actually getting your browns one.

Good luck vying for second place in the division.

you NOT getting the steelers remote is much better than me GETTING the browns one...LOL...as far as second place, no i think we will pass the bengals and be in first...enjoy third place!Devil_lol

[Edmund]

Silly question... my old man has an ancient Hughes "Directors Pack" SD receiver. He is a huge Giants fan, and I would love to get one of these for him. Anyone know if this will work with his old non-DirectTV branded receiver? Go Giants!!

If the receiver is IR yes, code 00749 would work. The current Directv RF remotes will not control any of the old RCA, Hughes, or Sony RF receivers via RF, only IR. Because they use different RF frequencies then the current Rf receivers and between each other. A RF remote will know only one RF frequency at a time.

[daveriv]

I've always used my Harmony remote - do these remotes have any macro buttons to turn things on and off at the same time?

[DCSholtis]

I couldn't get the order process to work with Firefox 3.0 so had to use IE (sigh).
to pick my team.

Safari, Camino and Firefox are not working for me. No clickable choices I might have to give em a call to order. Ugh.

[Canis Lupus]

I just kept adding each 30.00 drop down to my shopping cart until I hit the Giants one, then removed the rest. :lol:

[DCSholtis]

Which browser are you using Canis Lupus? Right now all it will let me select is the AZ Cardinals one. UGH. I can't even select each one in the drop down there is no option for that.

[pbg]

I didn't see any names next to the $30 prices. Just figured the Bears would be the last one on the list, which they were, and ordered it. :)

Go Bears!

Thanks for the tip! Order in -

[joed32]

Safari, Camino and Firefox are not working for me. No clickable choices I might have to give em a call to order. Ugh.

I called 3 times this morning and they are not on their system at all. Just click each $30.00 until the right one comes up and remove the ones you don't want. If I remember right the Raiders were in the upper half.

[Canis Lupus]

That's weird. I at least saw the $30 drop down over and over in both FF 3.0.1 (Beta) and Safari 3.1.1, as well as IE7 on a PC (at the office). Are you saying you can't even use the dropdown?

I ordered mine in the wee hours this morning but cannot get a status report. It shows a problem and I cannot tell if it was shipped or even really in the system.

[dtrell]

ok just ordered a dallas remote to go with my browns remote...ok D you scammed another 60 bucks out of me (plus tax OF COURSE)...at least if i end up dumping D at the end of the year, i can sell them on ebay..LOL...

my system looks like this now:

14894

14895

now there is that problem of both teams first opponent this year...:scratch:

[bonscott87]

Just ordered up 'Da Bears!

FYI I was using FF 3.0 and the list had all the teams there. Earlier when trying in IE 6 it was just a big list of "$30".

[curt8403]

in case no one has asked. These are just like the rc64 for programming, but because they are custom they will not be replaced by the protection plan.

[Canis Lupus]

Took me like 23 so you're not the only one. :lol:

Let's just hope the numbers don't match where our teams finish in offense and defense this year. :nono:

[papa_azteca]

Thanks Papa!

You all are quite welcome!!! :D

Ordered Texans for myself (since it's in RF) and Cowboys for my dad. Lil sis will have to order hers on her own bc I'm not ordering another Cowgirls remote from my account.

Wouldn't it be cool for DIRECTV to offer some nostalgia team remotes? I would gladly take a Houston Oilers remote!!! I hope you're listening DIRECTV!!!

Wife just saw order - wants a Jets one because Favre is now a Jet. I suggested for her to wait until after he retires again.

[ramcm7]

I will def order one and but it on my BILL

GO BUFFALO!!

Bills fan here, too. I am worried that if we get one, just when we have figured out which button does what, there will be new buttons doing those jobs by mid-season, possibly switching back to the original buttons with little notice.

:confused:

It could be worse. We could flip a coin to decide which button does what... ;)

[BigJ52]

Did Directv do anything to market these? I don't remember ever getting anything from them about it. If it wouldn't have been for this board no one would of knew about them. Seems kind of odd. Maybe because they are "limited" they don't want to do a lot of marketing of them so they don't have to turn people away?
Don't know...

They are "limited" to 25,000 per team.

I suspect the advertising is still yet to come. Don't want people looking for something before it's available. Posts on a forum get to a lot faster than adds with your bill =)

That could be it. I know when I called in today to try and order one when I was having problems ordering online they mentioned it was a web only thing that was limited to what I thought was a number of 25,000 per team.

Thanks for the correction. :)

its really hard to believe its only 2500 per team...for being national and with all the D subs there are, thats not a lot...and think of all the bars in each area and away from the area where they have bars dedicated to out of town teams...like browns backers for instance are all over...
if it really is 2500 only, then they really should be numbered and they really will be collectors items.

[merchione]

2,500/team


I say FRUUNNKKISS!

[DCSholtis]

They now have the teams listed in the drop down. MUCH easier when ordering. Wished it would have been that way this afternoon instead of having to go through all the teams.

If it's really 2500 per team, seems to me some money could be made on an auction site...

I don't want to open a can of worms like with the AM21 but has anyone received a tracking number for their report? DirecTV is normally good about shipping and I don't want to call about it but just a bit gun shy from all the day one orders we saw missed on the AM21.

[dtrell]

no tracking number yet...they immediately defaulted to "shipped" as soon as they were ordered...which seems kind of strange...

I got my order in nearly right away. I'm expecting they will start shipping within a week and that I will hopefully have it within a couple of weeks. I'm not going any further out on a limb than that thinking I'll have it this weekend or anything.

I've found that patience is my best defense against disappointment. :)

Gotcha, I may have taken that the wrong way, personally I'm not to worried if they take a week to ship it, just want to make sure they are really shipping it :) Especially if they really are that "limited" hate to wait a week to check on it and hear sorry we're out of 49er's, how would you like a Redskins or something :D

Under the status of my order for the remote, it shows "completed." There is no number or anything to click on to check it. It is just blank. Well I do not have a remote, so how can it show "Completed?"

I assume "complete" means your order has been shipped and you will probably receive it very soon.

[JLucPicard]

I think it just indicates that the ordering of the remote is completed. I don't know if any of these have actually shipped yet as there is a column on the View Orders screen for tracking numbers and there is nothing there yet (and I ordered VERY soon after the site became available).

hoopsgreat, I would only read into that that the system has received your order.

From what I've heard it's 1-2 days to ship so we should have them 3-5 days from the order date. Directv's site always says completed and shipped as soon as you place the order for these types of products.

[Papa J]

In the past when I ordered a remote, it arrived by either UPS or Fed Ex next day service on the following day. I would not be surprised if we get them Monday.

Edit: Well that was odd, less than 5 minutes after I get the first one, a second FedEx truck delivers my remote! :D

[vikerex]

Received mine just now. One thing this one has that the standard one doesn't is a backlight button on the side, all of the keys light up when you push it. Nice looking remote, if I must say so.

When you order, do they allow you to enter a shipping address, like to your place of employment?

On a side note, I noticed these remotes have hit ebay for double the cost.

I've been informed that mine showed up at home. The actual words were something like "Did you order that damn thing?" Guess I didn't have as much permission as I thought I did. :lol:

I told my wife I ordered another remote out of consideration for her needs. She will now have one for the couch and one for the big chair. And I will have the new one for my recliner. I am sure when she sees it, she will comment on how generous I am.
