A universal remote control, but these can be user-configured with a pc program which allows you to create your own "pages".

Then you teach it all the codes from your original remotes (or download them from the web).

One remote does it all...

Ihad same problem with a new BUSH tv, but my sky control was a bit knackered so I bought a new one fron tescy, and it had according to the bumpf "UPGRADED SOFTWARE" , in the control, well it worked perfect, found a list(code) mine was not on it, so went through, auto search and it did it perfect, took 10 minutes that's all.

If it is remote control, there is a code end of.
Whether they want to give it out is another matter.
I seem to remember that the old remote did have a capture mode on it for non listed codes, or am I wrong ?
PM me your model no and I'll have a look to see if listed.

ps I can also turn the tv on/off with the control
