Comcast cable subscribers require a specific Comcast cable box and Comcast remote to control the channels they receive. The Comcast remote controls the cable box and can also be programmed to control and turn on and other devices including TVs and DVD players. If you would like to use a Panasonic TV with Comcast, you will need to program your remote with the appropriate code for Panasonic TVs to allow your remote to control the functions of the TV as well.
