Hello - I own a Hitachi DVD player (DV-P415) and I wish to program my Toshiba remote (CT-90047) for use with my Toshiba HDTV 34HF81

Device codes for DVD players on page19 of my manual (01-08 print) do not list any reference to Hitachi DVD players

Does anyone know of an update to Toshiba manuals that might resolve this?

Thanks

Try the alternate approach: most universal remotes have a method of setting the device code which allows you to try out all the sets of codes that are in the remote. It is the "Auto" mode where you repeatedly push channel up or some such thing until the device turns off, at which time you have stumbled upon a code that will work the device.

If you run through this method and none of the choices control your DVD, then you are simply out of luck.

The one irritating thing about this method is that ther is never any mention of how many different codes the remote has for any particular device. This means that if you find a code that works, well, peachy, but if you do not find one, how the heck do you know if you have tried all the possibilities?
