How to Program RC66RX to DirecTV DVR HR24-500
My parents, sadly, still use directv and old remote barely functions. I found two new remotes, but can’t get either to program with the dvr following the instructions I found online

What remote control model numbers?
No special programming should be required to use a DirecTV remote with an HR24 DVR.

Hi, @Jellise17. Here are the official steps to programming a Universal RC66RX How to reprogram your DIRECTV remote control | DIRECTV Support
If this is what you tried and had no success, we'd suggest ordering a new remote by having your parents sign in to their DIRECTV account, go to the remotes page, purchase, review changes, and place order. John, DIRECTV Community Team

It is possible that the HR24 is in RF mode so you need to use the front panel touch buttons to return it to IR mode then reprogram it to RF if needed. You will need a RC6X remote with an "R" in the model number to use RF mode.
