Please note: universal remote code lists are usually limited to devices that were programmed 6 months or more before the universal remote was programmed. Since the 36HFX72's manual has a copyright date of 2002, the CT-90121 may not control devices built in late 2002 or later. I hope this helps.
Hello
This remote control is for use with Toshiba 22AV500U TV. It is originally coded to use with this TV, yet other TVs also can be programmed with this remote contorl. There si no specific user manual for this remote control itself. All codes and proceedings are with the user manual for the above mentioned model Toshiba Tv. If you haven't that manual, send your email address to me by Fixya. I'll send a copy of that manual to you by return mail. Or go tho this link from where you can download the above said TVs manual for as PDF format. OK

There are several different options to solve your problem. You should be able to program your cable box remote to replace many (but probably not all) of the functions of the Toshiba TV remote that you're missing. Read the user manual that came with your cable box remote to find out how to program it to control different types of components. It's not very difficult and that would be your least expensive option. Another suggestion is to buy a "universal replacement remote" that are sold in many electronics stores. Once you program those universal remotes, they will perform most/many of the functions of the original (Toshiba) manufacturer's remote. A "universal replacement remote" can cost anywhere from $20 to well over $100 depending on how many electronic components you want to control. My best suggestion would be to buy a replacement remote that was specifically made for your Toshiba model 27DF46 TV. There are many companies on the Internet which sell those remotes specifically made for your TV. The cost is usually between $25 - $35. One last inexpensive option would be if you already have any other Toshiba components (like a Toshiba DVD player), in many cases, the remotes are nearly identical and will provide most or all of the same functions. I would start by trying whichever option makes the most sense for your particular situation. Good luck.
That particular TV has both "component video" and standard video inputs. The DVD player might have a component video output (it will be three separate connectors of three different colors.) You will need a component video patch cable available at most electronics stores. If your DVD player doesn't have that input then use the standard video connector, yellow wire connects the video out on the DVD player to the Video input on the TV. The red and white wires are the left and right stereo audio connections they also make a cable for that. It will be color coded so make sure you match the codes from the output to the input on the TV. This set has two video inputs, you will get your best resolution if you use them instead of a "channel" input.
You will need the remote to select the video 1 or video 2 inputs. You can connect your DVD player and your game at the same time. Just use video 1 for the DVD and video 2 for the game. They require the yellow, red and white connector cables. Just follow the color code and match the colors with the jacks on the TV and other units. There is actually a third video input Video 3 behind the little door on the front panel. That would be convenient for the game if you want to remove it easily when not in use.
Push the menu button on the remote (big button in the middle) go to the video function and select either Video 1 for your DVD, Video 2 or 3 for your game.
The correct video input for what you want to view is important. Also if you don't have the user's manual it's available for free here: http://tacpservice.toshiba.com/ConsumerProductSupport/Manuals/TV/2003/32A33_32_36A43%28E%29_A.pdf
You might also need to download an Adobe Viewer which allows you to read .pdf files. That is also available for free at: http://get.adobe.com/reader/
If you already have malware protection (viruses and the like) un-check the MacAfee box so you don't download that too.
try scanning your TV channels down or up depending how close you are to the first or last channel you have programmed, if you continue to move past those settings you should come to the game channel for your TV, if it does not go into your menu>channel settings>manual settings, scan to the game channel and make sure it lists as active if not make it so.
First off, time warner makes decent remotes, but they are cheaply made. If you have a menu and selection button on your box, you can use those to navigate to the menu you need, and set it up. It will probably take longer without the shortcuts, but there are worse things.
what is the model number on the remote?
