Directv remote programing

When I try to use learn remote. It stops on the second button and says "button already learned". Can I use my direct tv remote to control my atv2? Is there an app on the iPad that can control atv and my tv etc... This multiple remote thing is not working for me.

G5, Macbook Pro, Powerbook, iMac, iPhone user, Mac OS X (10.5.5), Airport Extreme, 80 gig iPod, iPod nano (the wife's) etc...

I use my TV remote to control the AppleTV (1st Gen) and it works fine.

I would assume that the new ATv would also work.

What delays are you using? I am having trouble getting the up arrow to work on my harmony 880. everything else works fine. Can you confirm that it is play you press to pair the harmony remote?
