I did this (I have the comcast with silver / red button), and everything works right, except, I cannot click the 'down' arrow, nothing happens, the other ones do though. And volume goes up, but I cannot turn the volume down. Help please?

@SwishNationHQ (cont) If you are talking about the down arrow that controls the menu on the box, don't bother with the instructions I gave you below and try a new remote. About incompatible tvs. Familiar brands like Sony & Panasonic should be compatible.There are a few new brands that Comcast does not have the proper codes and you won't get a remote that works. Comcast is not perfect, as I'm sure you well know. Good luck.

@SwishNationHQTry reprogramming and finding a different code. Go past where the tv turns off and keep going until it turns on. If that one doesn't work, try it again. I have tried 6 codes before I found one that worked, but it is usually pointless after 4 tries. You could have a bad remote. If you didn't see it come out of plastic, it is recycled. If a new remote doesn't work, you have an incompatable tv.

@SwishNationHQ (My reply is in three segments. I hope it makes sense.) Sometimes there are one or more codes that partially work, but there is only 1 that works completely.

How do i program the remote so i can use it to turn off my tv and turn the volume up and down all on that one remote?

[Broadbandmanudaddy]

@TheRaneri What I showed you in the video should have allowed you to turn on and off your tv and adjust the volume. If you can turn on your tv but cannot adjust the volume there are 3 possible problems

1. Sometimes there is a code that only partially works. If this is the case you can search past the first code for a second code.

2.A few tvs are not compatible. Nothing can be done if this is the case.

3. Comcast may have something new which I am unfamiliar. No work since 2010.
