Unknown. You didn't provide any model info. Best answer is usually to buy a universal remote. If you have a cell phone with an IR emitter (some Samsung models have them) then you could possibly use your cell phone. Some TVs can use the buttons on the TV for menu access/programming.

Let me add my 2 cents...usually people suggest to get a universal remote. Now i have bought 2 of them at different times the past few years. I have found that the ones that i have only go as far as turning on and off, fast forward and rewing, but no way of programming. As for anymote app, it seems limited to only the old vcr's that have IR. Now, how does one know if their vcr's has that? I do not see it in my manual.

This is a TV thread, rather than a VCR thread. Accessing the menus on a TV for programming (memorizing channels) is different than setting recording times on a VCR. Access to basic menus on a TV is a standard function for universal remotes.
