Arrow IR control code for Samsung DTB-H260F

Samsung DTB-H260F is a HD receiver to receive free over-the-air high definition broadcasting. I bought it recently and it works perfectly. It is very popular. Both Best Buy and Circuit City have sold out them once. I have to wait and order on-line.

Is there anybody who knows the code for this receiver or knows how to control it to change channels. I searched the web and called the TiVo tech support. I was given a few codes but none of them worked. I submitted a request to TiVo's suggestion web page.

TiVo desn't really work with OTA tuners, which is why you are having trouble finding codes.

I merely plugged my DTB-H260F into the video RCA input jacks on my TiVo, selected channel zero, and did a manual recording utilizing the "Showcase" channel. Worked like a charm.

It doesn't matter whether TiVo wants to work with OTA tuners. As long as TiVo has an IR code to control the channel changing of the Samsung box, then I am all set. I understand it may be difficult to change to sub-channels like 2-1, 31-3,etc. But I just need to be able to change the main channels, such as 2,4,7, etc. Right now, I have to check TiVo's to do list and then use the scheduling feature of the Samsung box to match the schedule. It works well but I have to do it every night.

It isn't that difficult for TiVo to add a new code to support a new STB, is it?

I know this is an old post, but is there any luck with IR code for boxes other than what TiVo has listed? Thanks.
