Got my Aktis RC-8000 with my Denon AVR-4802 a few years back. I liked the prgrammability, but the PC software was teribly clunky. Got a new Dish DVR and wanted to update the Aktis. It seems to be having communication problems with the PC. I was able to upload the current config file from the remote to the PC, but any attempt to download back to the remote fails. The download button doesn't even bring up a progress bar. Tried new batteries, different USB cable, resetting the remote to factory, removing and reinstalling the PC software including the drivers for the Aktis, nothing's worked. Now I've got an extrememly programmable remote stuck in factory defaults :(

Has anybody seen this? Is it time to get a new remote?
