The Ruwido m_8 is a pre-programmed universal remote control designed to consolidate control over up to eight separate home entertainment devices: television, set-top box (DVB-T/T2/C/S/S2), DVD player, Blu-ray player, CD player, tape deck, tuner, and amplifier. Its database contains approximately 238,000 references to original manufacturer remotes, making it one of the broadest coverage options in the Ruwido range.

The m_8 uses infrared transmission and supports four programming methods, including learning mode, which allows it to capture codes directly from an original remote. Ruwido recommends starting with the manual method using the supplied code list.
