Help on comcast remote - advance code not working

Post by fishacura »

1. Device: Toshiba TV 56HMX96
2. Type of device: DV3. Year: 1999
4. JP1/UEI Remote model: URC-1067BG0 (Comcast silver DVR remote)
5. Do you have a JP1 cable? No
6. Still have original remote? Yes
7. Checked the file section? Yes
8. Checked Pronto file section (at R/C)? Yes
9. Partially working setup code? Yes
10. Learning remote question? n/a

OK...I have the comcast silver DVR remote and the model in the remote is URC-1067BG0

I programmed the universal 4 digit code for my TV which is 0156 and the buttons on the remote work (volume, mute, etc)

So now I am trying to add some advanced codes. For instance, I dont need the mute key so I am trying to add advance code 100 (picture size) to the mute key. I hit TV-SETUP (2 blinks) 994-setup(no hold)-100-mute

It doesn't do anything....still works as mute. I have tried dozens of different advance codes from the adnace codes listings for the 0156 TV code but nothing works.

Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be appreciated. Really trying to do by myself but am stuck here. This SHOULD work right?

URC-1067 uses 5 digit EFC. Try adding "00" in front of 3 digit EFC codes (00100 in your example).
