Try VCR 0432 and DVD 0715. One of these may work at least partially.

I just set up a new 8910 remote, and the code VCR 0432 works my old Go-Video Dual-Deck VCR. I had to do a code search for my new cyberhome DVD player, and noticed the GoVideo VCR turning ON and then OFF again as I went through DVD codes. That implies there are at least two DVD codes that work an old GoVideo VCR. My old GoVideo DVD player DVP855 had to have a custom code created and uploaded to the remote.

Try the code search process, and use PVR, DVD, and VCR devices. If you stumble on any one that works to power on the device, then you can probably key-map the rest of the buttons once you figure out what their codes are.

Good luck.

The correct One-for-All code for the R6640 is DVD 1304. Doubt if that is pre-loaded in your Kameleon, you'll need to get it upgraded by customer service. As an alternative, you can try the DVD and/or VCR codes listed for Hyundai or Apex -- one of them may work partially.

Unfortunately, this remote doesn't seem to be upgradeable or I would suggest building the code yourself and transferring it via modem or jp1. It looks like you might be stuck if you don't decide to upgrade your remote to one which is upgradeable. Sorry.

Actually, this remote is upgradeable. It just does not have the pins. It has the JP1 pads.

It can either be sent to OFA for upgrade or if you are feeling like doing some soldering, you can solder a 6 pin on the remote.

Well tell me more about this 6 pin method you speak off, by the way, news update... I have tried, some more remotes.. AFO 8, Advent 6, and AFO 4, and none of them do anything for me, I have a Philips 6 in 1 and i scaned the codes and came up with dvd: 292 and vcd: 642, i have to switch between them to control the imputs and hit record and shit, the buttons are not mapped properly at all., but damn, i can record... still need a fully workin remote..

speak of [snip]

Under the battery cover of many OneForAll and Radio Shack universal remotes is a 2x3 array (6 holes) in the circuit board labelled JP1. Some even have a 6-pin jumper array already soldered to them. A few genious-type members here figured out that JP1 could give them 2-way parallel-port access to the processor and memory of the remotes. It takes a specially wired cable with a 6-hole jumper block on one end and a parallel 25-pin connector on the other. Add the right applications on your PC, and you can custom program those inexpensive remotes. Some remotes require a bit more than the jumper block. My URC-6012B00 from WalMart also required a patch wire and a memory chip.

Using the JP1 connector on my 6012 with the cable I built, I have:

- Added complete new device codes/keymaps for DVDs, VCRs, and a TV not already supported with device codes in the remote.
- Added a 7th device to this 6-device remote.
- Relocated the SET button (used as a SHIFT button) to the Home Theater button.
- Installed system macros on each shifted device button. Pressing Shift (Home theater) then the SAT button, for example, turns on the AMP, TV, SAT box, and sets the amp and TV to the appropriate inputs.
- Used toggle bits to keep track of device on/off status. This lets me skip turning the TV or AMP ON if it is already ON. My SHIFT-EXIT macro only turns devices OFF that are already ON.
