Hello good Tivo People PLEASE HELP I have a Viore 42" tv model #PDP42V18HA and I can not get the Tivo remote to control the Tv the code in the Tivo setup does not work? I contacted Humax Cutomer Support and they told me to call Viore i have no response from them yet. So I am asking the smartest people I know the Tivo Community.

Thanks For Any Help

From Viore:

Unfortunately, there would not be a remote code for this unit in your existing remote. The code would have to be already manufactured in the the remote that you have. This is a brand new unit from a new factory which has a whole new set of remote control information. We have provided our code information to several companies that maintain universal remote databases. There is a lag period before the remote with the new information can be manufactured and provided to cable TV customers. The only universal remote that would have our remote information readily available is a PC-programmable universal remote that allows the customer to download the code information (not a remote code) from the internet directly to the remote. Thank you for your inquiry.

From same thread:

Correct

I got a new remote from tivo where the code 316 works with VIORE
but the remote that came with my tivo does not work with this code

what a mess....



So, maybe with a remote that was manufactured after the Viore TV...The new backlit remote looks nice...

Also, some say try the Akai codes...

Akai's "Voire" sets use the NEC1 protocol with a device code of 96.157

I've checked my files of OFA codes and there isn't a match for that, so no OFA or UEI remotes that I know have a built in code that will work Voire TV sets.

However, I have programmed a bunch of remotes for Akai's tech support that will work the Voire sets, so let me find out if these remotes are available for purchase. Alternatively, I can load the codes into an OFA remote myself, which I can sell to you if needed.



We used the code 0054 on the Cox DVR box and so far everything is working except for the volume. You might try it.

I seem to be having the same problem with my SCOTT tv... obviously I shouldn't have bought such an off-brand but it was a "black friday" thing (32" LCD HDTV for 599 after rebates)...But yeah, that's the only annoying thing, that the tivo remote won't work with it
