How To Program Brightstar Remote Codes? [BR100B]

This is an in-depth guide for those who own a Brightstar remote control to use with their home entertainment devices. In my research, I found only very limited tutorials available on the web, and many of them do not provide real solutions to the user. That’s why I decided to put together a detailed guide on Brightstar remote codes and its programming.

Brightstar is a very old and widely popular universal remote that works with almost all TV brands. For top TV brands, it works without pairing. This is why it is the preferred brand for TVs in many hotels, hospitals, nursing homes, etc. Still, many people use it to control their TVs as a replacement for their original remote.
