How to encode the TV buttons of the GT remote control?
I have a Philips TV and its remote control has not any infrared diode.

I looked on line for other remotes of this type, and some, maybe in error, say "Wireless Communication: IR".

If there is any IR the IR LED will be in the end of the case somewhere.
If you look at the remote through a digital camera while pressing a button, you will see the IR LED flashing.

If there is truly no IR LED function on this remote, then No you can not program the GT Combo remote learn buttons.

One option then is to find a Philips remote of the same era that has IR LED and learn from that remote.

It may also be that the Philips TV that this remote is working also has no IR remote use.
Before trying to find another IR Philips remote, check that your TV has a IR remote input.

My Philips TV has both IR and Radio receivers, but the remote has the radio only.
Well I will try to buy a universal IR remote for the Philips TV. And if it can be paired with the TV, then I will encode the buttons of the GT remote.
Thank you for the tip.

You can test if the Philips can link to the TV remote, for example in the Samsung the option must be chosen for Gtmedia, Openbox and it can already be controlled with just the TV if the HDMI cable does not conflict

Another idea.

The GT Combo remote does not transmit IR signals while it is Bluetooth paired with the Combo box.
Maybe your Philips TV remote is the same.

Try doing the learn with the TV powered off, not standby off at the power cable.
Or try learning a long away away from the TV so Bluetooth is out of range.

Try this also.
go to the store where you brought the Philips TV.
While there use a Philips IR remote to learn your GT Combo remote.

Remember that of the GT Combo 4 remote learning buttons, only three work IR remote function while the remote is "Paired" with the combo.
The "Set" button will not send a IR command in paired mode.
Only volume + - and TV power work.
The "Set" learning button can be use as a sending button in unpaired mode (IR only).

I have already bought a IR remote for any Philips TV.
In the evening I will try to learn the GT remote buttons.
Thanks all for your help.

Much the same for all GT Media remotes.
