Set top box Motorola 1963 with Remote Control 40Pfl9704

[silphatster]

Hi Forum,

Can I use the RC of my Philips 40pfl9704, which I really like, with the HD Set top box of KPN (Dutch) which is a Motorola VIP 1963? I can't get it to operate while the Philips RC is an universal remote (RC4496).

Thanks for your help!

Tips, RC codes and explanations would be of great help!

Hi

I'm sorry but this is not possible. The Remote for the TV is universal but there is no way to add codes.

Regards

Motorola is in the Philips list for STB's: 1878. But this code does not work on the Motorola. There must be a way of connecting this set-top box.

I received several codes from Philips:
1878 (as given by 40pfl9704 while requesting to connect with STB Motorola)
0167 (given by Philips help desk but is not approved by 40pfl9704)
0497 (given by Philips help desk but is not approved by 40pfl9704)

Please help to solve this problem. It is an Universal Remote from Philips and Motorola is in that STB list.

Hi

that Motorola is in the List does not mean that we support each and every Device from Motorola.
If they Decide to you different Remote Codes for their Devices this is up to them.

Thats why i can only repeat myself, the Remote for the TV is universal but there is no way to add codes, so what you request is not possible.
