Astar got sued by Philips and went out of business. Astar owned themselves rather then having a reproduction redesign of another set. They were a cheap Chinese company that made stuff for Compusa. I've repaired a couple of their sets and they're easy to work on but a little under built. So chances of matching the remote code up to another tv code will be left to guess and check. On some remotes you can enter a setup where you can press the power button over and over until you find the right one, then press another button such as enter or select to lock it in. See if your manual says anything about code search.
I heard that if you press the enter button for ten seconds, it will reset the remote, thus eliminating the problem. I have been using a universal remote and cannot seem to find the trick to make this work.
I contacted the retailer from whom I purchased the TV and he was able to advise me on the fix. He told me that the problem is the remote control, which has to be reset.
To do that hold the Enter button down for 10-seconds, the remote and the TV should reset. It worked just fine for me.
