Code Program PS3 remote to Philips Soundbar B5 Fidelio

[pilotsh]

Hello,
I wish to sync my new Philips B5 Fidelio sound bar to the AMP button of my PS3 (CECH-ZRC1U) remote. The PS3 manual says I need a THREE digit code to sync. Does anyone know what the universal remote sync code is for the Philips sound bar please?

Thanks for the links, both not quite the solution.

I went to both Sony and Philips and they just keep passing the buck to each other.
Sony gave a few numbers simialr to their amps, and Philips said "we don't have numbers". Both useless.

So far, still have many remotes. 🙁

I think the Philips sound bar uses infrared for its remote and the PS3 remote uses Bluetooth so there will be a compatibility problem.
I think you would need a converter to make this work
Sony did make an infrared box for its PS3 but I don't think its available any more

Logitech also did one for the harmony remote

NOT Solved yet. The PS3 remote DOES use infrared and Bluetooth, so it should be programmable. When I have the time I will go through all 999 codes 🙁
