Help! Trying to program xfinity remote for mom
#7
It depends on which box she has feeding the TV. My Xfinity box is at least 4 years old. It allows multiple selections in the channel guide and up/down tuning:
- All Channels
- Free to Me (everything free in my 200+ channel package)
- HD only
- Favorites (select channel in guide, hit favorite button)
- Trending
- Movies
- Sports
- Kids Shows

I have it set for Favorites with about 55 channels selected. It's mostly HD with a few select SD channels like PBS.3, Comet TV, El Ray, MHz Network (sponsored by local community college).

ScumCrap allows up to 4 other devices on the local network to access the TV channels downstream of the cable modem. Typically allowed devices:
- Apple TV, Chromecast, Bez-azon Fire TV, TiVo BOLT, Roku
- Samsung Android based TV (DVD player, Blu-Ray player, 4K player)
- Xfinity mobile streaming app on iOS/Android
- Flash capable browser on Laptop/desktop

A Cablecard capable tuner/DVR like SiliconDust HD HomeRun Prime could replace the cable tuner box, but it won't get support from ScumCrap techs.
