If you just got a new Sony Blu Ray Player or DIRECTV, one of things you are going to want to do is have the DIRECTV remote control the player. It is pretty easy to program the remote, once you have the right 5 digit codes. Once the right code is put in, you should have the remote able to control the Blu Ray player with ease.

The Sony Blu Ray Remote Setup
- On the remote, move the “mode switch” until it is on AV1.
- Now it is time to input the code. Hold down the MUTE button and also press the SELECT button. Once you do this, wait on the LED on the remote blinks two times.
- Now you enter one of the 5 digit codes above.
- You can now try and control the Blu Ray player.
- If the remote does not respond, keep trying a new code until you are able to control the Blu Ray player.
How to Manually Setup the Remote
The codes listed above should allow your DIRECTV remote to control your Sony Blu Ray Player. If none of them worked, then you could not try and programming the remote manually.
- On the remote, move the “mode switch” until it is on AV1
- Now it is time to input the code. Hold down the MUTE button and also press the SELECT button. Once you do this, wait on the LED on the remote blinks two times.
- Enter 991 and then the code # for your device. 1 for TV’s, 2 for “AUX 1” devices such as DVDs or VCrs, 3 for “AUX 2” devices such as Audio.
- Once you have put in the code, you can now allow the remote to scan for the Blu Ray player code. You will do this by pressing the Channel Up until the player turns off.
- To test if the code works, see if you can turn it on and try and control some of the settings with the remote.
- Once you have found the remote code that works, you can press the “Select” key to lock it in.
Use the On-Screen Menu
If you have one of the newer receivers and remotes, you can use the DIRECTV on-screen menu to get everything programmed. Check out the video below as the proper way to do it.
