every tv set that comes from the same maker and is (almost) the same modell has a specific number to send, so if you are going to design a univesial controll then you must to som option key where you could fill in your tv set numer. If I where you i would only consentrate with the bigger names such as Sony, LG and Philips.

Could you not use the ir in the phone to recieve (record) the codes directly from the tv remote control. The phone then just copies all the buttons you press. No need to type in any codes and doesn't matter what TV you have...
Have I completly over simplified things?

hmm, the p800 is the first mobile phone i have seen with 2 IR diods (donīt know if thatīs the proper english name for it?), so it should be strong!
