For example I tried all the codes for Xfinity in one category (none worked), then I tried codes from other categories that list Xfinity codes (none worked), then I tried the code for Comcast (owns Xfinity) and it worked. . Once you find a code that works, try all the remote keys you need to see if any functions you need are missing. If so, try other codes to see which code gives you more functionality. When I finally found a code that worked for the Xfinity Edge, the remote would not adjust the volume or mute the TV when the person was using the Xfinity. This can easily be fixed by programming the volume and mute buttons to only work with the TV signal. For instructions, see the instructions that came with the remote control. It glows blue when you touch a button and has a simple layout. This remote works great and doesn't need to be pointed directly at the device you're controlling - I just need to point in the general direction. It works at 30ft (probably more - I don't have more room than that. The only thing I'm wondering is HOW LONG DO THE BATTERIES LAST? I'll update this info as soon as I know.
