That depends upon the remote. You have to follow the instructions that came with it.

open the battery compartment ,remove the batteries and copy down the model number,you can then do a search for the manual online.

Check and find the codes for Toshiba TV. Buy one remote control, which have that codes in its code list. Brand of remote isn't matter. Visit this site for more details.

I found that these websites should have all the codes and instructions for most remotes
http://www.xdiv.com/remotes/
or http://www.remote-codes.com/

Is the RC the original for direct tv box?, if not you have to find the code for the direct tv box, separate from the tv rc code.
if it is the original rc for direct tv, look for the code in the original papers from direct tv.

Buy a Universal remote Try "ONE FOR ALL" brand..

i bought it today and have programmed in the tv but am unable to program in anything else!
