Does anyone actually know how to disect an IR code?

To decode Pronto Hex you should get IrTool and DecodeIR

To really dissect Pronto Hex you should read this:

but decoding it is easier and more useful.

Once you have it decoded, you may want to use MakeHex to generate related codes.

What does that mean? and, can anyone figure out what the
opposite command is?

That is RC5 protocol, device number 0, function 63. IR signals don't inherently have opposites.

Thats the on command for a tv, I need the off and cant
find it anywhere.

Many TV's have that as a discrete On command. Most of those have function 61 as a discrete Off command. Some seem to lack Discrete Off and use discrete On followed by power toggle (function 12) to act as discrete Off. I didn't notice any that had discrete Off that was any function other than 61.

Here is some output from MakeHex for you:

Device Code: 0 Function: 61
0000 0073 0000 000C 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0040 0020 0CA4

You didn't mention what sort of universal remote you're using. If it is a Pronto, then RC5 codes will work better in condensed form.

Discrete Off is:
5000 0000 0000 0001 0000 003F

Discrete On is:
5000 0000 0000 0001 0000 003D

Power toggle is:
5000 0000 0000 0001 0000 000C
