Great video! I recently found this remote that's been sitting in a box for years and I couldn't for the life of me remember how to reprogram it. Now I can run everything connected to the tv; that I can control my apple tv is a whole lot of frosting on the cake. Thank you so much!
Excellent... believe it or not, I've done a lot of remote videos, and this is the one I use most to this day!
I've come back to this video so many times over the years. You my friend are simply brilliant.
Wow, Thank you!
I’ve had this remote for several years ... so long, it was before Verizon Fios came out. Today I decided to program my Fios remote, ah ... there was no code for Fios. So I UA-camd a refresher. Bingo! Thanks dude. You Rock
Excellent! Thanks... :-)
posting at 1:45 here, I haven't watched the video yet but you've ticked every box of what i've wanted... just threw out 10 universal remotes we've stored in the basement as we've changed devices over the years, because they didn't have thorough instructions to program them to. I have 3 universal sony remotes 2 of which i'm now fishing out of the trash because of this video... I'm lucky, the 3rd sony remote i've googled came up with your video, which explains that both of the sony remotes i turfed are actually usefull, if only i knew how to use them. So hats off, i'm going to try this, you've won my subscription and a like even though i don't know if this will work
TYSM! So glad I could help.... 😊
All these years later, still so helpful. Thank you!
That's excellent! You're welcome.. 😊😊
Thank you very much. Great quick help without downloads!
You're Welcome! Thanks
Thank you for your easy-to-follow help-much better then trying to read the manual.
You're welcome!
I purchase remote months ago have not been able to control my receiver until I watched this amazing video it took less than 5 minutes thank you very much
You're welcome! I'm glad I was able to help..
I was unable to learn a button and the tip about using fresh batteries did the trick for me, thank you very much!!!!!!
That's awesome! You're welcome..
Fantastic. Very helpful. Thank you
Excellent! Thanks for the comment...:-)
Nice worked first time thanks!!!
deazyd254 Excellent! Thanks 😁😁😁
IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL CONTROLS VIZIO 60" E - 1. Thank you so much. I bought the VZ-RM 320 online used (I believe the 620 might also work). 2. Pressing the right or left directional arrows move the PIP around the corners of the screen. 3. Pressing the STOP button (the square) swaps the primary and secondary PIP sources. 4. Programming instructions online are poor. There are TWO TV buttons on the remote. DON''T use the green one. Hold down the SET button while pressing the TV button (right below it). Then release button and press the 5 code digits (the last of four worked for me. 5. Knowledge is power. Good luck :)
Thank you for the info!.. 😀. I'm sure someone will find it useful..
Thank you this video is very helpful
You're welcome.. :-)
This guy rocks! Thanks dude wicked good 👍🏼
Thank you so much! You're welcome.. 🙂
Great video. Much help thanks. There is one thing I wanted to do though that I didn't get done and that is I have five lamps that are remote control I was hoping to set the remote to power on and off the lamps...
It's possible using the teaching/ learning method. I have run into some occasions where the remote won't take the signal because it's a odd device like a a/c or something other than what it was intended for, but it's definitely worth a try..
Excellent
Thank you so much
You are most welcome
Cheers buddy ..very useful
Thank U!... :-)
Very helpful thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Good Job. Thanks!
Thank you and you're welcome!😊
I brought this after I saw your video, and it works awesome on every device I have except my roku, I love it. Thanks for showing the learn feature it's epic. I'd like to add that you can use the learn feature to add a function to one of the preset device codes with out wiping the code you previously entered. I used the guide button to access the file system and view/rename my dvd storage, and also the channel keys to Sage selections at at a time on my Sony DVP cx995v 400 disk dvd changer so this remote is even better than the original. Just takes the efforts of programming it .
Is it a roku stick? If so, those use rf to control the remote... glad u got it going!
Never dreamed this remote could do this
I think so.
Appreciate, it worked out for me. 👍
Excellent! Glad I could help... 😀
thank you, well done. my remote was rm-vz320 I'm writing the code down and will add to my list.
You're welcome! So Glad I could help
Hell yea thanks it worked!
Excellent!.... Glad it helped... Thanks..:-)
Thank you!
You're welcome
I love the video you have one more subscriber 👍👍👍👍
Excellent! Out of all the remote videos I've done, I use this remote as my personal remote everyday!... :-)
Thank you you helped me😆
Glad I could help! You're welcome.. :-)
Fantastic thank you
Most welcome
Nice demonstration.
You should consider including the model number at the video title.
Thanks!
There is no set button what do I do
joseph bvr you should find the button at the upper left corner?
wow the only remote with both guide and dvd reject and learning capability. wish i had seen this few hours ago before wasting money on Phillips...TU.best remote control films on tube bar none.
Yes, of all the remote videos I've done, I use this sony one for my everyday! I'm sure I'll find one eventually that I like better....
@@JLPicard440 so far all the new GE remotes I've tested, the Guide button does not work with cable box even after i called tech support. i hope the Phillips i ordered will work. if not might have to give this a shot or go back to my most hated remote Logitech 350. they work with everything but i don't like the idea of not owning the remote and having to log on and they don't last beyond few months .and they can actually disable your remote.talking about police state with remotes. And always the flashing lights problem.
@@WV591 that doesn't sound to good!
Thank you! Save me from having to get out the instruction manual. :-)
You're welcome!
@@JLPicard440 Hi, when programming your TV, how do you change the input? I hit the input button, then the channel button will cycle through hdmi 1, 2, etc., but then there’s no enter button that selects the input. Please let me know what button you used.
I have an element tv.
@@nathansmall5976 What if you stop on one of the inputs? Like stop on Hdmi 1, or 2.. etc. Usually that will do it on my TV
@@JLPicard440 it won’t select the input. The + button should do it, but it doesn’t. I’ve them all. I think it might be a problem with my element TV.
Thanks for the video, by any chance, is there any possibility to program for 2nd TV?
I can't remember on this one, but i don't believe the device buttons are locked into what the button is labeled as, so yea, give it a try using the same procedure as the TV button, but sub it out with whichever button you want the 2nd TV to go to. I'm pretty sure it'll work, but not 100%
Thanks for the video!!
You bet! You're welcome... :-)
EXCELENT, GOOD TUTORIAL..
Glad it was helpful!... :-)
man you saved me hours of finding codes on internet for my special devices and beleive me they just coudnt be found. I new that this was very powerfull remote and I have it for years. thing I didnt know it has capability to get and read codes from remotes directly. Now I can control tv, amp, htpc, minix box with android, even my 2 led lamps... btw: nice and simple guide... thank you
Excellent! Of all the remote videos I've done, this is actually the one I use everyday... still.... :-)
Is there a way to copy keys of devices? For instant, you showed how the cbl volume button can control the volume of the amp. Other than volume key diplicator, is there a way say I want the Clb-1 button when pressed, actually activates Amp-2 button ( just for illustration if u get what I mean )
I am not sure on that one. Im pretty sure this remote is teachable from another remote, but not sure if you can duplicate one button to work on another button. Maybe if you have the original remote to the device you're trying to duplicate the button for, you can teach the other button to do what you want..
I have this remote. While I can program it with stored codes, it won't let me teach it new functions. For instance, I programmed it to work my Arcam receiver, but that only controls the power. I wanted to teach the Sony how to change the inputs. I go through your steps and as I go to select a button to learn to, the Sony flashes 6 times and the learn function shuts off. 4:28
If you're going through the procedure it should work. Do you have the manual? It'll spell out the procedure there too... I would try this with a different remote just for a test. Maybe it's not compatible with the Arcam?
Paul having the same problem with a Roku remote
Do you know if it's Sony remote Commander vm320 has learn mode where I can teach it something from the original remote like you do with your Apple TV?
I found a book for a vz320 and I didn't see anything about learning in that booklet... probably the vm320 is about the same..

Thank you so much!
Great video. I have A RM-VZ320 and can't get it to control my old Sherwood Amp, I've tried all available codes and also the auto search still no luck.
HI, Do you have the original remote for the Sherwood? If so, does it work? Also, does the code list for Sony mention Sherwood under the audio devices?
@@JLPicard440 No, don't have original remote. Yes, Sony does list Sherwood under the Receiver list but not under the Amplifier section. I've tried the Receiver ones but no go.
Just out of curiosity do you have another amp that uses a remote? You could try it on that to see if you have any luck. It's possible the old Sherwood isn't compatible... @@rickyrodriguez749
Will this Sony RM-VLZ620 remote work with a garage door opener remote? The remote for the opener is a Multi-Code 308911.
NO, a garage door opener is RF, this is IR
Cool
Thank u!
It works with Roku remote, you have to unplug you roku power and it works, I just did it
Excellent!
@@JLPicard440 I brought my Vizio soundbar back from the dead after watching your video... Was too cheap to buy the $6 remote. 1st I had tried searching for a device. Pretty easy.
Hello nice video hey i have a RM-VZ320 can this remote learn codes?
I checked in the manual and it doesn't look like this is a learning remote..
@@JLPicard440
Yea i found that info too its weird from sony cause i believe my remote is more expensive than the one on the video (I USED TO HAVE IT ) and it doesnt learn codes boooo for sony
CoolPanda 21 huh... yea the one you mentioned doesn’t learn codes, but I’m pretty sure that the one in the video does... I’d have to look again at it.. so don’t quote me on that
Cool shades 😎 Oakley ?
Wally 1970 thanks... I think they’re just a generic cheapo!
Thanks for making this video- does this work with sony STR- D511 receiver?
HI... Im guessing it probably will, but without one here to try I can't say for sure.
@@JLPicard440 I ordered it last and will try it. I will let you know. Thanks for making the video 💪
Great! If it doesn't work you should be able to send it back... Unless of course you got it from eBay or something like that...
@@JLPicard440 it worked! Just a small difference - had to hold play til the unit power off, back on and a little bit more. Thank you
That's awesome! Glad you were able to get it working... 😊
Tengo el remoto del modelo que mencione pero no tengo la lista de codigos y necesito programar un tv y otros equipos.
HI, I usually leave a link to the codes in the description. If it's not there or no longer working, it's easy to google codes for the Sony remote.. Thanks.
I have a Sony RM-Y915 remote that's has no "set" button. How do I program the remote for my big screen Panasonic tv?
HI, the best I can tell that is a factory Sony remote control and will only work with various Sony TV models... I don't believe it's programable...
I have a replacement av system rm-aau019 and I'm trying to program it to control a tv can you help me please?I have watched the video of you programming Sony remote
I can't explain over a message how to program the remote. Basically you just do the same thing I said in the video, just use the code for what brand TV you're trying to program to.
Ok thank you.
Hola! Alguien puede decirme, donde esta el botón ( size ) en control Sony, es para hacer mas grande la pantalla de la tv
Hola, es posible que tengas que ir al menú del televisor para acceder a algo llamado zoom. Eso debería agrandar la pantalla.
Hi do you have a tutorial for the universal remote (RMT-TX00D) i cannot find anything online on how to pair this to my Sony TV. Please help
HI, sorry I don't. When I did a search for that it came back as a TX100D... are you sure of the model number?
once i programmed my remote i lost the original can i use the program remote
to make another one the same way?
Yes it should work..
How can I set this remote in my Sony STR DB930 receiver ?
I will do appreciate it if you help me out .
HI, is that an audio device? My guess is this remote is already set to operate Sony right out of the box. IF not, you should be able to follow the instructions in the video for programming a device, but just use the Sony codes under the audio device button. If it doesn't work at all, I seem to remember this remote being teachable. You'll need your original remote for that.
Will this work with sony dvp-3200ns and a sony str-d790 both? Thanks
HI, those model numbers don't mean a thing to me... All I can say is it might work... Sorry I don't have a better answer.
Is it working SONY SA-D40 home theatre -yes/no
Probably! I don't have one to test it on... 😀
after i program one universal remote with the original remote and lose the original remote can i use the universal remote to program another universal remote?
Yes i believe so. As long as that programmed remote is still working the device... it's kind of like making a copy of a copy of a key.. the copied key will still work, but might not be silky smooth... !
@@JLPicard440 can you try it and give me a definitely answer maybe?
@@yottibos2140It should work. I won't be using the same conditions as you so my test wouldn't be the same.
It controls my Element TV, but it won’t let me change inputs. I can cycle through the inputs with the channel down button, but then I can’t select the input. Any ideas?
I think I might have answered this one?
I can't seemed to learn the keys from my Onkyo amplifier. Do you have any clues to it?
It should be able to learn these with no problem. Are the batteries in both remotes any good?
@@JLPicard440 I think so....are those the only possible reason it cannot learn?
@@wilsonganks No, maybe the area you're trying to learn in is to bright? Are the remotes to far away from each other? Stuff like that can be a problem as well. If I had a onkyo remote handy, I could do a test, but I don't have one..
@@JLPicard440 thanks for the help. I will try in another area. Thing is I tried to copy another remote and it works. Only the Onkyo amp doesn't. Odd.
@@wilsonganks Ok, yea that's weird, I don't know why it doesn't want to work for you. ☹️
I have a piooner elite can I active that one to?
It might work. Are there codes for pioneer on the code list? I don't have that one here to test and make sure.
Can you program the fire stick remote?
What’s the code?
HI, there's no code for a fire stick remote. You can use almost any remote to control a fire stick through HDMI-CEC. Most TVs have the ability. I have a video on that..;
ua-cam.com/video/MndLcR5FfT4/v-deo.html
Hi can you help me connect a urc 11 2910 (the new version) to a LG tv
Where do I get one?
@@JLPicard440 you can get one online
I need the codes for devices. Like, I need the code for DirecTv! I even tried to search for it manually on the remote and nothing. I have the original manual for the Sony remote and it doesn't tell me the codes.
You can try the website and see if there listed there. There should be a link in the description. If they don't have them there, I don't have them either since that's what I go by.
We have had the same problem. We end up using the learning function on the sony and do get by.
Can you please give me the code to Vizio I have a sony university remote control just like the one in the picture
HI, I usually leave a link to the codes in the description. If it's not there or the link no longer works, you should be able to google the codes for Sony universal remote. Thank u.
I bought a new remote RMT-TX300E to replace my old one because it was broken..... I can't find any set button or anything I don't know how to make it work on my Sony TV
HI, so I looked that one up and it looks like it's a replacement remote for Sony. It's not programmable and the description said no setting or programming needed, just put in the batteries and go. I guess that's not what's happening?
@@JLPicard440 yeah It didn't work i ordered for another remote model I'll update you if I have problems
Thanks for replying 🙂
@@megasbasileios3154 You're welcome.. 🙂
Having problems with tcl/roku remote and using the learn function
It should work
DOES ANYONE have the code for the remote used to control an AT&T U-Verse cable box? Remote is AT&T S10-S3 and the cable box is branded Motorola VIP 2250. Thanks!!’
I finally found one that works!!!! 50858
Good deal.. :-)
So I bought a Sony cd-322m cd player without a remote is there anyway I can pair a universal remote to it?
It's possible. The remote is geared to a DVD player. If you don't have one already, I don't recommend buying it on a chance it'll work. The only thing you can do is program in Sony DVD codes and see if it'll work. Or you can try the auto code search and see if that'll hit on something. But there's a pretty good chance it won't work since it's made for DVD players. I don't have a Sony CD player here to experiment around on it.
@@JLPicard440 so even if I buy a Sony universal remote that has the "CD" button on it there is a chance it want pair? And why dvd codes on a cd player? Shouldn't I try cd codes? Idk I've tried looking for the code for this model but I can't find online.
@@almnmnmmaa Sorry about that. I had to go look at the picture of the remote again. Most of the universal remotes don't have a CD button so that's why I said DVD since it's the closest thing to a CD... This remote should work since it actually has a CD button and therefore more than likely CD specific codes when you look at the code list..
Could you link me the remote please
@@almnmnmmaa Looks like Amazon doesn't sell them anymore. I went to eBay and found several. This is the model number.. : Sony RM-VLZ620
sony rm-vz320
HI, you would just use the same procedure in the video, but sub out your code for the Sharp ones. If you've lost your manual, you should be able to google the codes for this Sony remote.
I don't have that remote. I have AV system RM-AAUO19. How to program this remote
I don't think I can answer that very well thru a message like this!
Could you please send me the operating instructions for LR Generic AV Remote RM-AAUA019
Can this remote learn/program an Amazon Firestick Remote?
Yes, you can use the TV in CEC mode. I did a video on this some time back. here's the link.
ua-cam.com/video/MndLcR5FfT4/v-deo.html
Well what about the rat-d197a I have an Emerson tv and I didn’t see it on the list
It’s dvd remote but it has the volume button and the option for time but those don’t seem to work and it seems like you can set up to tv but I may have to just go get a universal remote because I’m confused 🤔
HI.. that remote is only made for Sony devices. Looks like it'll work a Sony TV, but there's no way to program it to other brands. It's not a universal remote.
Thank you very much I appreciate that
You're welcome..
I have two of these and I've programed them in the past but now I can't teach any button from any remote. I feel like I'm entering 988, but I feel like that's not the correct procedure.
Are the batteries any good? Sometimes a weak battery will cause programming issues..
@@JLPicard440 I tried new batteries in both, and I found out that I am doing it correctly, but certain buttons just will not learn, and it's the same for both remotes. Weird part is that I've used these remotes in the past and all of the buttons were teachable.
I need the code for a Vizio I don't see it in the package
HI, if I didn't leave a link to the codes in the description, it should be easy to google the codes for Vizio.. Thank you.
When I try to program a remote manually it does not work... The second I press a button on the sony remote to copy it on the other remote the the red button flashes and turns off before I can even clic on my apple tv remote... I tried with an other remote and it's the same thing... (I bought two of those remotes and the same happens to both...
1) I press and hold the set button until the light stays red then at the same time press the center button
2) I type 988
3) I choose the tv input (for example) and the button stays red
4) I press a button on the sony remote, then the TV button flashes red then shuts off then the set red button flashes and turns off too
So right off the bad it's a fail already....
5) Then when I try pressing the TV button again it does not stay on....
Anyone else is having this problem ?
I'll try to look into it for you. I have to leave this morning, but if you don't hear from me by this evening send me a reminder.. thanks. BTW, I haven't checked your procedure there to see if it looks right, but did you check the batteries to make sure they're fresh? This can cause trouble too.
I'm having this exact issue. Did you ever find a solution?
Hey I'm using a sony rmvz 320 to try to program it to a emerson tv but none of the codes work any advice
I think this is a learning remote. If you have the original, you can use that to program the functions in. Also, you might be able to try a auto code search and see if that'll hit on something.
So no way to program this sony remote with romu remote correct?
If this remote is teachable (I don't remember, but I think it is) then it should work using your original remote to teach it. Certain Roku's won't work because they are RF controlled not IR, so it depends which one you have.
Hi Rudy@@JLPicard440 I was able to get the remote to power my Vizio on & off and the menu button works but the arrows won't work to select a menu item. Any ideas? I do not have the TV remote to copy and I'm wanting to get the input to change since the hopper remote only controls the TV power as well. Please help.
@@mrsstepbart Did you try all the available codes for your TV? If so, I forgot if this remote has an auto code search, that's worth a try as well....
Why isn't my SET light coming on? I've put new batteries in my remote and the TV light comes on when I press it.
It should be! Was anything ever spilled on the remote?
@@JLPicard440 No, but I hadn't used it in years because I bought a fire stick to control apps and channels. Can I use the Sony remote with the fire stick? I followed a suggestion on the Sony website and cleaned the battery area with alcohol and I was able to get the SET light to come on when I pressed the TV light ~ I got the three flashing dots but I still can't use the Sony remote to turn off the TV. The remote 😊worked fine years ago when I had cable instead of the fire stick and streaming apps.
HI... I guess you've already tried fresh batteries.. (just throwing it out there!). Yes you can use the remote for the fire stick if your TV has HDMI-CEC capability.. I did a video on this a while back that explains what I mean:
ua-cam.com/video/MndLcR5FfT4/v-deo.html
Just wondering have you tried all the codes for your TV? IF so, how about the auto code search feature? This will search the whole database and see if it'll hit on one that works better for you...
i dont have a set button?
You might be working with a different remote...
Is this really by Sony? I found many on China websites and it looks exactly the same.
Good question. I can't answer that..
@@JLPicard440 thanks. Have you any luck with controlling an Onkyo receiver. I tried mine but don't seem to work.
@@wilsonganks I don't have an onkyo to test.
I actually don’t know what I’m doing,my tv is a Sony Bravia and the controller is already connected to the other tv, I’m on the screen mirroring page on my tv, what do I do from here, sorry if I don’t sound professional I’m a kid trying to work the tv 😂👍
HI Izzy, thats a bit to complicated to explain over a message like this. The video should show how to program in a Sony TV. Did you watch it?
I have a sharp tv
HI, you would just use the same procedure in the video, but sub out your code for the Sharp ones. If you've lost your manual, you should be able to google the codes for this Sony remote.
My channels wont changr everthing elsr works.
Did you try all the codes? Also make sure your remote is in TV device mode.
Code search 3:00
Is there a question?
@@JLPicard440 no, I just keep forgetting the code
I don't speak English ☹️ help!!!
Traté de activar los subtítulos para español, pero no me permitió hacerlo sin una transcripción escrita. Lamento eso.
The print are too small
HI, see my other answer..
so far i have wasted cash on 4 freaking remotes 2 GE's, 1 Phillips and this damn Sony not realizing it doesn't even have code for roku. WTH .i guess it's back to damn Logitech. anybody watching these videos. download the code spreadsheet before you buy. too late for me but maybe save you some cash and headaches.
The sony is a learning remote... can't u teach the functions to it?
@@JLPicard440 yes, THX to your detailed video the learn function works good. most codes in manual don't work with my equipment i guess this must be an old model or something so search and learn are the only way to go with this. Although some of the learn functions don't seem to store no matter what. strange it doesn't have an EXIT button had to teach that for each remote. This remote also does not have the Expose what codes was scanned . be good to know what codes are stored.
Can't take a bath because i'm too big
Lol!
