I have a magnavox converter box and i bought a GE universal remote because i lost the magnavox remote....but i cannot turn the box on to program the remote! HELP! IS THERE ANY WAY POSSIBLE TO TURN IT ON WITH THE REMOTE I JUST BOUGHT???

Google ge (remote model nimber) programming instructions

this should give you a link to their site. Programming codes vary from make to make and model to model of universal remote.

I googled, found this: http://www.dtvhdantennas.com/universal-replacement-remote-control-for-magnavox-tb110mw9-digital-converter-box/
So if this is your universal remote, it should have codes in the instructions. OR try this it might have an answer for you.

Has some actual experience and possible codes. One says RCA universal has code.

not sure what code you are using. Usually the GE remote code for magnavox converter the code is 0581.

If you can not find the code most universal remotes have a search codes for correct one. Could take a lot of button pushing

ask mechanic

hi,
Try the any one of the following code.
150,259
ok

Not a complete solution, but, around the last page (pg. 14) of your converter box manual there are codes listed for universal remotes. I happen to have a Philips remote that is listed. My code to control my dtv box is 0354. It appears that they have all codes listed for all Radioshack model universal remotes. I would suggest getting a Radioshack remote for Your "Digital Stream" (Radioshack) dtv box...

Hooked up our analog TV set with Magnavox TB100MW9, the video is not stable. Any advice on WHY?
unlhook it, the video is OK.

The code for a Magnavox Converter *Analog to Digital* to a Philips Universal Remote is 0759
