The Official Philips Code List for the SRP2014H/27 (Verified & Tested)
The SRP2014H/27 uses the standard Philips code library. Our team has rigorously tested these codes to identify the “Gold Codes”—those with the highest success rate and most complete functionality. For the fastest setup, always begin with these codes.
Core Programming: Your Step-by-Step Instructions
Method 1: Direct Code Entry (The Precision Method)
This is the fastest and most reliable way to program your remote.
- With your device (e.g., TV, Cable Box) on, press and hold the
SETUPbutton on your SRP2014H/27 remote until the red indicator light stays on, then release it. - Press and release the device button you wish to program (e.g.,
TV). The indicator light will blink once and remain on. - Enter the first 4-digit Gold Code from our verified list for your device’s brand. The red indicator light will turn off if the code is accepted.
- Aim the remote at your device and press
POWER. The device should turn off instantly. If it works, your setup is complete.
Method 2: Auto Code Search (The Seeker Method)
If the direct codes did not provide full functionality, this method will scan the remote’s entire library for a working match.
- With your device on, press and hold the
SETUPbutton until the red indicator light stays solid. - Press and release the desired device button.
- Point the remote at your device and repeatedly press and release the
POWERbutton until the device turns off. This process can take several minutes. - The moment your device shuts down, you must immediately press the
SETUPbutton to lock in the code and stop the search.
Expert Guide: Controlling Streaming Players (Roku, Apple TV, Fire Stick)
This is where the SRP2014H/27 shines, but it requires expert knowledge to set up correctly. Here’s what you need to know: your Philips remote uses Infrared (IR) signals, while most streaming sticks (like Fire Stick or some Rokus) use Bluetooth or Wi-Fi remotes.
The Solution: You don’t program the remote to the streaming stick itself. Instead, you program the remote to control your TV. This allows you to use the Philips remote for the most common functions—Power and Volume—while using your original streaming remote for navigating menus.
How to Set It Up:
- Follow Method 1 or 2 above to program the SRP2014H/27 to your Television Brand (e.g., Samsung, LG, TCL).
- Once programmed, your Philips remote will control your TV’s power and volume, no matter what input you’re on (including the HDMI input for your streaming player).
- Use your original Roku, Apple TV, or Fire Stick remote for browsing and selecting content.
This “two-remote” solution is the expert method for a seamless experience, eliminating the need to switch back to your TV remote just to adjust the volume.
Comprehensive FAQ for the SRP2014H/27
Can I program the SRP2014H/27 to control my Roku TV?
Yes. A Roku TV is a television (made by a brand like TCL or Hisense) that uses the Roku software. To control it, you must use the code for the TV manufacturer (e.g., TCL), not for Roku.
I found a code that works, but only for power and volume. Why?
You’ve found a partial match. Our expert advice is to repeat the Direct Code Entry process using the next code from our verified list for your brand. A different code will almost always provide more complete functionality.
The red light on my remote isn’t turning on when I press SETUP. What’s wrong?
This is almost always a battery issue. The SETUP function requires full power to initiate. Replace your current batteries with a fresh, high-quality pair and try again.
My remote isn’t working correctly. How do I reset it?
A factory reset can solve many issues. For a complete walkthrough, please see our definitive Philips Remote Factory Reset Guide.
