Thanks so much! My grandmother lost her manual and they took her cable box away so I set up an antenna and it took me a while to find how to set this universal remote up. Then, I came across your video! Perfect, simple, easy to understand and I only went 3:36 minutes into the video before her tv/remote was set up. Yay!! So, happy for her. She's been days without any tv. Which, hey sometimes we all need to be honest. Lol Thanks again!
Just moved and I couldn’t find the instructions for my RCA remote and your video was the only helpful video I happened to run across! Thank you so much
After numerous failed attempts from other sites, I then came upon your video, which worked like a charm. Thank you so much for your excellent and clear tutorial.
Yay! It finally worked! As with another commenter, ours didn't work with the "reverse" button but rather with the "forward" instead. Thank you so much! I watched several videos and even read RCA's "How to" on their website and nothing worked before this!
After reading the instructions, an hour of frustration, and many videos...came across yours and took 2 tries and got it working. Thank you for making it easy!
Bless your heart! I tried all the other vids but they didn't work but you said one thing different and it finally turned on my tv. Still working on it. Well it turns the tv on but then goes stupid. If at first you don't succeed.. time for a new remote. It turns on but it won't do anything else. Thanks for the good vid though.
@@skywind007 my remote don't do it so I bought a different kind earlier but it has to go back tomorrow because it won't let me use the menu. Its only hours old but keeps having to reprogrammed.Really strange. I have to scan for channels and turn on cc sometimes, things like that so I need my menu
Thank you so much... Your instructions were simple and easy to follow. I really appreciate it. You save me a few bucks from buying a new remote as well as saved me a lot of time!!! You're awesome dude!!!
Darn, I needed the demonstration for the DVR. This remote was bought specifically for a DVD player and I had no problem programming it. All the functions work. I just haven't been able to figure out which button opens the player. I'm having to open it manually on the player itself.
Hi your explanation is very good but I have an issue connecting my DVD player Toshiba brand with Panasonic TV I can’t do it. Does the DVD need to be in specific channel ? I had tried several times and for some reason doesn’t work. Thank you
In general DVD players need to be connected to the HDMI port on the TV, and that port needs to be selected on the input menu. If it's an older DVD player with RCA connectors, then you have to select LINE (LINE IN or AV in) on the input menu. Make sure you plug in the video cable in the video hole, and audio cable in the audio hole, or else it will not work. I have never seen a DVD player with coaxial cables, but if they do exist, I would assume that they would work with channel 2 or 3 like the original Nintendo did. However, if that was the case, you would need an analog TV as a digital one would not work.
@@skywind007 Thank you, I was going to ask you about that if the TV needed to be program as well or only the DVD ? Would that work if I only want to program the DVD player. I notice that other box from tv channels were turning on with the remote but I did want to use it for that purpose, I only care for the DVD player as I lost my remote for that one. Also like you mention my tv needs to be in video 3 to use DVD , but I did know which channel in the dvd has to be ? I tried a few line 1 or 2 or channels 3 etc. I unplugged the other box for tv so it wouldn’t interfere with the remote but still would work. Thank you for your help.
Holy shit bro, you’re a life saver. I’ve been watching all kinds of videos to reconnect my remote. But yours had the exact remote I have and you made it super easy for a dumb ass like me to understand. Thank you 🙏🏽
Very nicely explained! Thank you! I got the tv on / off and volume to work. I can’t seem to pull up the input, I see it talking to the tv, red and blue light flash, but no input. I got the dvd to go on / off, but tv not giving input option. I’m not sure why. But you very clearly and patiently explained it, and I finally got it! It might just be the tv here being a bit difficult. Thanks so much though ✨🙏✨
It will depend on what type of TV you have. There are two types. One that has an INPUT controlled by a single button, when pressing it once brings up the input menu and pressing it again changes the input selection. The second type of TV uses two buttons, one button brings up the input menu (usually labeled input or with the input icon), and then you have to use the arrow keys to move up and down the different inputs (hdmi, av, etc). You can use a universal remote on the first type of TV but not on the second type of TV. Unfortunately, with the second type of TV you simply have to use the buttons on the TV itself to change the input (or buy an original used remote on eBay). If you have the first type of TV but the input menu is not coming up, you might want to try another code until you find the right one.
Dude I have to tell you this has been the best tutorial and universal remote programming that I have watched that actually works. So kudos to you. One on how to bypass the pattern on a tablet so I can get into my tablet because I forgot my pattern LOL thanks
I was able to program it within seconds with your video after watching and reading 6 other instructions online. Thank you sir for the clear and concise video. 👍👍
Hey man ty for this video. I had an issue of it being set up and powerinf the TV on and even adjusting volume, but it would not let me swirch inpurs. Your instructions got the input button working, much appreciated
Thank you very much. Your instructions are easier to follow than the paper and other vloggers. You did not codes like the paper say. Wow!. It is working. Thank you again very much. 😊😊😊
OMG!!!! DUDE THANK YOU SOOO FREAKING MUCH. OH GOD I GOT THE NEW 2022 LG UDH 55" AND IT HAS ABSOLUTELY NOOOO BUTTONS ON THE OUT SIDE. IT HAS 1 tiny tiny power button hidden under the TV so I would have to quickly turn it on and run around the TV and point this damn remote at that TV I mean I m by myself I don't have 4 arms or 2 body's. So I put a mirror across from me and ID just look in the mirror. But dude thank u for explaining how to install this remote. You explained it better then pros. So thank you. Alltho the screen keeps turning off every 15 to 20 minuets like on the dot. Exactly 15 to 20 minuets and the screen shuta off on its on like its programmed to shut down aftwr 15 to 20 minuets. But eather way I m happy with the results. Thank you again bud!
all of my devices go thru my yamaha receiver. not quite sure how do do this. I'm trying to replace my lost remote for a sony blue ray- dvd player. do I turn on my tv, select the blue ray player and then do this?
I think it's better that you disconnect the TV, otherwise you might see the TV screen turn on or off, because some of the codes are similar between devices. Seeing the TV turn on or off might create some confusion. The blueray player should have some led lights on the device itself to indicate that it's turn on, or off if those lights are not lit. Remember, you are only interested in the blueplayer reacting, not the TV. After you program the remote, you will need to replug and turn on the TV to test every button on the remote to make sure it controls everything on the blueray player.
Omg buddy you amazing 👏 got dammit this works papa you genius no need instructions just batteries and you, you a crazy one, good job got dammit, you 100!
I have a love/hate relationship with this remote. I had no issues programming this remote to work with TV's, Roku's, and a Sony AV system. I love the shape of the remote, which is similar to a Tivo remote, but what I hate is the most pathetic worthless backlight ever and the tiniest navigation arrow keys ever. Who designed this thing? I'm keeping it though just because it works!
That often means that the code you used is not the best one. Often, more than one code will work but some have limited function while others are more complete. Try different codes until you find one that is more acceptable.
Thank you so😄😄😄😄 muchThis thing was killing me!!!!!!! I watched 2 other videos and they didn't do it like you did. thank you, I was about to go buy another one, lol.
I only managed to program one of my many remotes to both a non smart TV from 1999 and even a VCR. Of all the remotes, it's the only one that works on both smart TVs and older non smart TVs. Here is the link to the video and you can see for yourself: ua-cam.com/video/jTvKtOY-4Lc/v-deo.html

Thanks a lot I had to press fast forward instead of reverse this was the BEST WAY EVER ❗️❗️❗️
What’s ya cashapp lol you saved me 30 mins I pressed fast forward and it worked when I read ya comment thank you
Omfg thank you so much for commenting this bc my high ass would have never thought of it
Oh my gosh I'm so glad I saw your comment. I was loosing my marbles because it wouldn't work pressing rev. but ff...whoooohooo. thanks
Thank you for your comment,,fast forward works really well! I was bout to give up till I looked down at my phone and seen your comment.
Thanks a bunch the reverse was not working for me but the fast-forward did
After reading the instructions, an hour of frustration, and many videos...came across yours and took 2 tries and got it working. Thank you for making it easy!
Quick. No NASA experience needed. Thanks for the help
Thank you so much for making this video. The instructions that came with the remote were so unclear.
Bless your heart! I tried all the other vids but they didn't work but you said one thing different and it finally turned on my tv. Still working on it. Well it turns the tv on but then goes stupid. If at first you don't succeed.. time for a new remote. It turns on but it won't do anything else. Thanks for the good vid though.

Thank you bro, still a very relevant video today I found my remote years later but had no instructional and this helped
i gave up. then i saw this video and it worked. saved me tons of trouble. thank you
Definitely the best tutorial video. I couldn't get my remote to work until after watching this video. Thanks.
Your instructions for this are the clearest on UA-cam. Was able to program tv without code. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much... Your instructions were simple and easy to follow. I really appreciate it. You save me a few bucks from buying a new remote as well as saved me a lot of time!!! You're awesome dude!!!
My remote won't do the code cycle. I hold down both but the power won't come back on.
Darn, I needed the demonstration for the DVR. This remote was bought specifically for a DVD player and I had no problem programming it. All the functions work. I just haven't been able to figure out which button opens the player. I'm having to open it manually on the player itself.
Omg you're a life saver thank you, I was about to throw the remote through my TV.
I got it to cut the TV on but the volume and the channel changer does not work
That means you are using a code that has partial functionality. Try different codes until you find one that has more complete functionality.
Thanks, I lost the instructions and was grateful for your video.
Oh man this video, saved me from pulling my hair out! Thanks a bunch!
This was kick-butt! I got it first time. Now l can control the TV and DVD with one controller!
Thanks for the help
Thank you so much my friend! Great instructions! So helpful!
This was so freaking helpful I cannot tell you how many times I watch the actual video on the RCA website but this was substantially easier
Hi your explanation is very good but I have an issue connecting my DVD player Toshiba brand with Panasonic TV I can’t do it.
Does the DVD need to be in specific channel ? I had tried several times and for some reason doesn’t work.

I was on the verge of giving up pairing my remote to my DVD player but this one worked. Thank you so much
very helpful and now my blue ray working again with remote, thank you so much
Amazing, I pressed the fast forward button instead of reverse ! Thank you so very helpful ☺️
Thank you!!! I did the reverse a couple time but the forward worked perfectly ❤
Yo! It worked! Except the reverse didn't work until I hit forward acouple times. Thank you.
Thank goodness i saw your comment! I was getting so frustrated lol. Didn't even think to press the forward button!
Absolutely the best video I’ve seen on this remote instruction
Dawg wtf thanks I could never figure it out to the point I was going to get a new control liked and subbed keeping it in my playlist 🙏
Thanks for the help I just moved and went back to no cable found the remote with no instructions. Very helpful thanks
Thank you for explaining this procedure quite cleatly. I was able to pair my RCA remote wuth my Sony Blu-Ray player.

This made it so simple and easy had my tv back to its old self in seconds lol

That often means that the code you used is not the best one. Often, more than one code will work but some have limited function while others are more complete. Try different codes until you find one that is more acceptable.
Great video
It's supposed to be backlit but when I push the button only the power button lights up. Any idea how to fix it?
Thank you so😄😄😄😄 muchThis thing was killing me!!!!!!! I watched 2 other videos and they didn't do it like you did. thank you, I was about to go buy another one, lol.

Thank you so much, I almost blew a gasket.🙏
Dude saved my life 👏🏾
Thanks! Very helpful.
Does it work for non smart tvs?
I only managed to program one of my many remotes to both a non smart TV from 1999 and even a VCR. Of all the remotes, it's the only one that works on both smart TVs and older non smart TVs. Here is the link to the video and you can see for yourself: ua-cam.com/video/jTvKtOY-4Lc/v-deo.html
