tv / cable

[rudeboy]

so someone gave me a rather large Mitsubitshu, works good and everything but here's the "issue" i have a cable box so i use the cable box's remote.. everything works except the volume & mute button. (i had this "issue" before with another tv and therefor moved that one to the bedroom.. but now i'm baffled and not sure what to do... went through all the settings but can't find a darn thing/settings that makes it works.

anyone ?

so you dont have a tv remote to work the volume?
i think you can program the cable remote to do that...or if you cant i would probably go out and get a cheapy universal remote

is the tv older than the one you had? maybe it isnt compatible?

I think Scott is right, the cable remote needs to be programmed for the TV. You could call the cable company and ask?

i might do that... he may be correct and the tv is "too" old..
