Controlling TV volume with the HR24 remote

[Dennis Brown]

<div class="bbWrapper">I have used the on-screen commands to program my HR24 remote to control the functions of my Sony HDTV. After going thru the scenario, the menu says it worked and I can control the TV&#039;s volume with the remote. However, after I leave the on-screen command section, the HR24 no longer controls the volume.<br /> <br /> Does anyone know what I doing wrong, if anything.<br /> <br /> Thanks and aloha and mahalo from the Big Island<br /> <br /> Dennis</div>

<div class="bbWrapper"><b>2 options</b><br /> <br /> If you continue to use the HR 24 remote, it will necessary to slide the switch over to the TV setting to control your Sony.<br /> <br /> However, I purchased the linked item, which will eliminate all of your remotes .<br /> <br /> For $20.00, it is impossible to beat.<br /> <br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/One-All-Learning-Universal-Control/dp/B00083ET5G" target="_blank" class="link link--external link--favicon link--favicon--before" style="background-image:url('https://www.google.com/s2/favicons?domain=www.amazon.com');" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">Amazon.com: One For All URC 10820 10 Device Learning Universal Remote Control:?@@AMEPARAM@@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41HVNJ161YL.@@AMEPARAM@@41HVNJ161YL</a></div>

<div class="bbWrapper">With extra signal added to the volume commands coming out of the directv remotes makes the signal unrecognizable to the recent sony tv&#039;s. While in program mode this extra signal is absent. <br /> <br /> with receiver off, just program remote like so:<br /> <br /> 1. tv<br /> 2. press and hold MUTE &amp; SELECT, wait for two blinks, release<br /> 3. enter 1 0 0 0 0 <br /> <br /> If the volume still doesn&#039;t work try the following:<br /> <br /> 1. press and hold MUTE &amp; SELECT, wait for two blinks, release<br /> 2. enter 9 7 3<br /> 3. press CH UP<br /> <br /> at last resort:<br /> <br /> 1. tv<br /> 2. press and hold MUTE &amp; SELECT, wait for two blinks, release<br /> 3. enter 9 9 3<br /> 4. press SELECT</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Are you asking if you can use the remote with two tv&#039;s on the same remote? You can have two different tv programmed to the same remote, but only one volume will be punched through to the directv device, you could set up two identical sat receivers with volume coming from a different tv each.<br /> <br /> so the remote would be programmed thos way:<br /> <br /> Dtv device: sat receiver with volume from TV device<br /> AV1 device: same sat receiver with volume from AV2 device<br /> AV2: remote tv<br /> Tv: main tv<br /> <br /> tell me if you wish it programmed this way?</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Edmund:<br /> After implementing the &quot;10000&quot; option, the DIRECTV remote now controls the volume of my Sony TV, which is in the same room as the DIRECTV receiver.<br /> <br /> I have split the HD signal from the Sony (via an HDMI cord and powered HDMI splitter) and routed it to a Visio TV in another room. My question is can I program the same DIRECTV remote (maybe using the AV1 or AV2 settings) to control the volume of the Visio TV.<br /> <br /> Thanks,<br /> <br /> Dennis</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">The DIRECTV remote now control the volume of all three of my tv&#039;s.<br /> <br /> Again, Thanks everyone.<br /> <br /> Dennis</div>
