Question Universal remote control compatibility with converters

Does anyone know if a universal remote control (like the ones sold in stores) work with converter boxes? i've read a lot of threads here on their boxes not being able to control TV functions and i was wondering (since i have at least two boxes which cannot turn the TV on or off even) do any of those One 4 All, or other branded universal remotes work with converters? i would assume one would use 'Cbl/Sat' to make it work but i haven't a remote to test it with and i don't want to buy one myself and find out it's not useable.

I don't know from experience, but I'm quite sure a universal remote will learn the converter box commands.
