Here is a link for programming the remote http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/FiOSTV/Remote+Controls/SetUp/SetUp.htm

To Search for codes, do this

Step Action
1 Turn on the device
2 Press and hold a device key (AUX, DVD, or TV).
3 While holding down the device key, press OK.
4 Release both keys. The device keys will blink twice.
5 Press 9-2-2.
6 Point the remote at the device
7 Press PLAY (the triangle button).
8 Press Fast Forward (the double triangle to the right of the play button).
Every time you press Fast forward, the remote sends a new power-off command to the device
9 Keep pressing Fast Forward until the device turns off.
10 When the device turns off, you have found the right code.
Press OK to store this code

i was trying to avoid resorting to that. also once i manage to tune it using this, how do i extract the code out for future stuff like remote changes or battery changes.

I suggest getting a good universal remote. I have the Harmony One and I never even have to worrry about codes.
