Our TV is a RCA SmarTVirtuoso.  I tried several different brands and nothing was working.  I started typing in Virtuoso to change the brand.  I took the brand that came up after I typed in Virtu... and it worked.  I can't remember which brand it was.  But I guess if you have this problem with a TV, just keep trying different brands.  Eventually, maybe one will work.  Hope you all get yours to work.

I was trying all the above codes on my RCA tv and none of them worked until I got to Proscan. For me it was code 1

FYI, the original RCA company has been liquidated/out of business since early 1986 when they were bought out by General Electric Company.  Then, in the fall of 1986, GE sold its stake in RCA’s record assets to Bertelsmann, which later renamed its RCA/Ariola International joint venture to Bertelsmann Music Group in the spring of 1987.  Then, in the summer of 1987, GE sold its consumer electronics divisions, including RCA’s consumer electronics division, to Thomson SA (now known as Technicolor SA since 2010), which later formed its own consumer electronics division, Thomson Consumer Electronics, in the spring of 1988, and its pro series electronics division, ProScan, replacing RCA’s Dimensia product line, in 1990.  Eight years after the latter division formation, the company formed a sub-label for media electronics called Thomson Multimedia.  Then, in 2000, it formed a joint venture for telephone electronics called Atlinks, with Alcatel (now folded into Nokia as of summer 2015).   In 2003, the trademark rights to all of RCA’s assets, excluding its record assets and the NBC television network subsidiary, were acquired by Thomson SA, and since then, the brand was licensed for marketing to other companies, including TCL, Telefield, Canada-based Curtis International (known in the US as ON Corporation) and Voxx International (formerly Audiovox Corporation).  A year later, GE sold a 20% stake in NBC to Vivendi which owned Universal Studios at the time, and signed a licensing agreement with Jasco Products Company (they still have a licensing agreement to this day).  In 2005, the Atlinks name was integrated from telephone products released through Thomson.  Then when Thomson was acquired by and folded into Technicolor in 2010, GE’s consumer electronics division reverted back to GE.  So technically, RCA and ProScan are the same brand.  ~ Jordan
