Hitachi Coding for Humax PVR 8000T

[Northumbrian]

This is a repeat of my question in the Electronics Section. Can anyone give me the Hitachi coding suitable for a Humax 8000T?. I've gone through the list in the manual without luck and Hitachi refuse to give me any new numbers which might have been added recently. Is there any system of random selection which might work?

Can you be a little more specific please.
What do you mean by coding?
Are you talking about remote control codes?
Do you want the Hitachi controls to work the Humax or the other way around?

Ok let's put things into perspective .... Hitachi don't issue the codes ... Each manufacturer integrates compatibility with a range of brands ... the actual setup belongs to Humax not Hitachi (so they're not refusing ... they just don't know)

The handbook on the web is normally kept up to date .... so almost certainly the info required is here
http://www.humaxdigital.com/uk/pdf/PVR-8000T_8 0G_L.pdf

there is also a getout clause in the book which says that some models may not be supported

Further ... if the TV is a very recent model ....you are possibly out of luck ... unless the remote has the facility to update itself.
(having said that most brands use the same basic signals ... so work through the codes in the book ...
failing that consider something like

the 525 is excellent ... and DOES update itself

Many thanks to you both. Now that I understand the set up and have carefully gone through the list of codes twice, I can only assume my TV is not included. The 'get out' clause applies!
