Comcast cable boxes are manufactured by Motorola, Scientific Atlanta and Pace. Each of these manufacturers produce several different cable set top box models which are used by Comcast. Therefore, if for some reason you get a new Comcast cable box, there is no guarantee that the box you receive will be the same brand and model of your old cable box. If you're still using your old Comcast universal remote control, you may need to reprogram the remote to operate the new cable box. The process of reprogramming a Comcast universal remote differs depending upon the type of remote you're using.

Step 3
Use the remote's number pad to enter "9-9-1". The Cable mode key will blink twice. Press "0". The mode key will again blink twice.
Step 4
Press the remote's "Power" button. Aim the remote control at the cable box. Slowly and continuously alternate between pressing the remote's "Cable" and "Power" buttons until the cable box shuts off. When the cable box shuts off it means the remote is temporarily programmed with the right code to operate the new cable box.

I have a Sanyo DVD player along with an Xfinity/Comcast DVR. One tried the Sanyo codes that came in the programming pamphlet from Comcast and none of them worked. I tried the codes on this site and they didn't work either. As a matter of fact i tried codes from multiple website and not a single code worked. I've programmed the remote for different TV's, other DVD players and even VHS VCR's and have never had any of then not work with atleast one of the codes. I'm at a loss now and am stuck as to what to do now. Any suggestions?

This article is the only reason I was able to fix the issues I was having PLUS instead of merely having someone come in and "help" me by fixing it, I now understand the process. There are many people out there like me who benefit and sometimes rely on people like you for this kind of support. Extremely grateful for you taking the time to help.

We were able to set a remote for one TV with soundbar so that the volume button automatically controlls the soundbar. We can leave the remote in cable mode while volume button controls soundbar.
I can't recal how we programmed that. With these instructions have to press AUX to controll sound.
