JP1 Remotes

Hello,
I have DirectTV DVR Samsung 4040. I just bought One4All URC-8810w.
I can set up for my TV and VCR without problem but I cannot find the correct code for my DirectTV DVR. In the manual it list under Satelite code 1109 but it doesn't work. Anybody has the code for this SAmsung. Another question, I read in this forum,they said that most of the keys of 8810w are programable(not only L1-L4) How do you do that. On my unit if I press any key other L1-L4 the LED doenot flash 4 times as I expected as it mentioned in the manual.

Beware! He don't listen very good:

Edmund's answers in that thread pretty much cover it. Maybe he should have explained the 994 command he suggested was to clear out any old KeyMoves in case they were the reason some of the keys didn't work. Maybe he should have given the 992 command needed to use a VCR setup code on the SAT device key the first time you indicated that's what you needed rather than the second. But I assume he got the point across.

As for the "programable" keys you're asking about here, I can assure you that nothing is special about L1-L4. Most keys can take learned signal (what you called programable).

I don't know which 4 flashes you mean. At the end of learning I think you get a double flash if it could store the result, and a long flash otherwise.

There are a few keys (such as the device keys) that you can't learn to. The behavior is quite different if you try to learn to one of those.

If you fail to learn because you didn't line up the remotes right or otherwise didn't get a recordable signal in, you get a long blink, just as you'd get if there isn't enough room in learned signal memory to store the signal you just tried to learn. I don't know if anything in the blink pattern lets you know which of those things went wrong.

You might be just as happy building an upgrade. I wasn't happy with the stock VCR 0618 in my URC8011, and keymoves would not work with that one, so I built an upgrade using the hacked Tivo protocol.

I'm guessing that he's not a JP1 user. I don't see the need to add anything to what Edmund's already stated in the other thread.
