Broke Set top Box remote control. Need a code to reconnect a new all in one remote

[Chris_grio]

Hi

Sorry if this has already been posted...

I recently broke my MAG254 remote control and purchased a new receiver. The receiver is called the "One for all". The manual has a list of all tv and satellite codes to programme the remote with a device. However I cant find the MAG254 code in this manual. I also cant find it anywhere online. I have read a lot about how to use the existing MAG254 remote for normal TV functions but not how to set up a new remote to control the MAG254 set top box.

Any help would be appreciated on how to get around this!

Thanks

I have a Harmony remote. Works great for the mag254 and everything else. Just a suggestion......

I have the same problem now. My friend's mutt decided to chomp my MAG254's remote to the point where it no longer works. Is there something fairly common I can get to use with this box? I would prefer something cheaper than Logitech's Harmony remotes, if possible.

I forgot my mag254 remote in a house and could not get it back for months. My workaround was a wireless keyboard but I discovered that eBay has replacement remotes for less than $20. Cheap "all in ones"won't work unless they are learning and you have access to an original mag remote to transfer the codes from.

Infomir has them, very reasonable, also...

don't see anything equates to menu key. I think only time it's used on MAG 254 is during bootup to being up the portals list.

I don't have wireless enabled for remote control on my box and don't have the wireless adapter either. I will definitely look at ordering another from Infomir but I was hoping there was something I could grab at my local BestBuy or other store that would work until O get a replacement.

Logitech Harmony does state they work, but I couldn't find out if they work natively or require the remote to get the codes from by pointing the original remote at the Logitech remote.

if you have a smart phone there is an app for that, Magic Remote if i remember correctly.
