GE Universal remote
My equipment was just updated from an old DVR to the newer HD DVR; previously I used a GE Universal Remote to control my setup but after getting the new receiver I can not control it. I've search online and haven't had any luck finding the specific code for the DirecTV HD DVR (at least any that have worked yet). Any one have the code? Thanks!

I actually just found a post that resolved my issue: https://forums.att.com/t5/DIRECTV-Installation/HR24-200-Need-Remote-Control-Code/td-p/4710047
My issue was that the system was setup to accept "RF" remote signals, when my GE Universal Remote is "IR". Once I figured that out, I was able to change the settings and the first code I tried worked.

I believe the old model was the HR20 (I can't confirm, because it has already been returned). The new DVR is the HR24/100.
