I have the DVR/PVR 5 and a Yamaha RX-V2500 receiver and can't find any Yamaha code that the remote will accept. I have also tried the learning process as well as all Yamaha codes I could find for any Yamaha device. Of course Time Warner Cable is of no help. Any suggestions?

This page, [Link: hifi-remote.com], lists (3) possible codes for Yamaha receivers:

0176
0186
1176

Thanks, I've tried these codes to no avail.

When testing the above codes try all key with receiver on, you probably won't be able to power OFF or ON or BOTH.

I've even tried resetting or clearing the AUD position and I've tried all the Yahama device codes in the AUX also. I think maybe getting a new remote from Time Warner might be the next step.

And, of course, I have had no reply to the help group at Universal Electronics who made thes remote.

It's possible that the remote simply doesn't support your receiver.

As for UEI helping you, I believe that remote might be considered an "OEM" remote and that whoever provided it to you is supposed to "support" it. As for TW or any cable company helping with a remote control and having it control anything other than the set-top box, don't hold your breathe expecting help from them on this.

Found a few more codes too:

0081
0082

Forgot to ask, but have tried using the remote's "search" function ??

Thanks....I have tried the search function. I can't imagine it won't support a new Yamaha receiver. Oh well, I just bit the bullet and ordered the MX-850 from Tweeter. I wonder if Time Warner will buy it for me...LOL
