You need a special box for H D TV. The older TV's will not work on HD but analog only. Box I bought cost me about a hundred dollars. You can buy a new HD TV for two hundred.
These codes I have may or may not work depending on what make your universal remote is. Some remotes use 3 digit codes - some are 4 digit others can use 5 digit.
The codes that I have for Vizio are all 4 digit (except one 5 digit) so if your remote accepts these then this is worth a try.
I contacted Vizio the other day. They tell me that they use the same generic codes as LG. I have Suddenlink Cable, formerly Charter, so I still use the Charter remote. My remote only needed 3 digits and I have noticed that many need 4 or 5. I can tell you that the LG code worked for my tv. I can power on/off, volume, and change the channel. All other functions require the manufacture's remote. The code I used is 005. There was also 004 but that did not work on my tv. Hope this helps someone!
I'm really guessing here - -but while you're in the parental controls screen I believe you can use 0-0-0-0 as a backdoor key. It's different for every manufacturer, Philips uses 0-7-1-1 example. But the users's manual for that TV says that the "default" is 0-0-0-0.. Don't really understand their use of that terminology so it's merely a guess...
But here's something I am really sure of;;;
The owner's manual can be downloaded for free at the Vizio web site: http://www.vizio.com/support/downloads/
and their support line is: 1-888-849-4623 or you can email tech support at: [email protected]
Hope this helps.
Good Luck
