How to select the correct device in drop-down box when programing

I have a 520 remote.
I am connected to the internet. I am trying to enter the devices the remote will control. I am not sure about some of the terms/abbreviations in the drop down boxes. I have a TV (Samsung LN52A850) and Dish Network (VIP622) entered on the add devices screen. Does that include our Dish DVR???
I need to add the following devices but I'm not sure which is the proper selection in the drop down box to enter; the Sony Home Theater System (HTCT100), Samsung Blue-Ray DVD Player (BD-P1500), and a VCR Orion (VR5000A).

Sony Home Theater System - 'Mini System' Samsung Blue-Ray DVD Player - 'DVD' VCR Orion - 'VCR'

No matter what you enter the devices as, the software will determine what it actually is and set the type.

Hope that helps.
