Which, Carl, is why we need the model no. is it not? Random 42 inch LG isn't very helpful, agreed? Your diligence in tracking down the myriad models is commendable though. You're not bored are you?

Searching for a TV remote control code
Quote:
1. Press and hold down and at the same time until the light on the top of the remote flashes green twice.


2. Enter the code 0999 to access the TV code database – the LED will flash green twice.


3. Press channel up until a code turns off the TV – the LED will flash green each time a code is sent.


4. When the TV turns off, release channel up and press on the remote to turn the TV back on.


5. Press and to check that the remote is working with your TV. If they don’t, continue to search using channel up until the next code turns off the TV, and repeat steps 4 and 5.


6. When the Volume and Mute keys work, press to store the code. The LED will then flash green twice.


7. If you reach the end of the code database, the light on top of the remote will give an extended red flash and exit programming mode.

No as there are no model numbers in the list to match it with. Which you would have known had you bothered to look at the PDF as I did.

Nope. Just needed a quick search with the right keywords

Re: TiVo vs Sky+ Benefits

To anyone that can't get a particular brands code to work with their model try the listed one's for Phillips as well, seeing as they invented / manufactured a lot of modern TV technology sometimes their codes work.

Re: TiVo vs Sky+ Benefits

I was under the impression that with the Tivo box you could get everything, l tried getting local news and info, such as the old box, but found you cannot get it.

And last night trying to get the red button for the football was a no goer, what was wrong with it.
