OK, the Comcast remote you have is the DTA remote, and it can only control TVs, and isn't programmable.

The DTA uses the XMP IR protocol, which wasn't even invented at the time the Sony RM-Y165 was made, so it isn't going to work either.

If you get a Comcast DVR remote with a red OK/Select button (<$6 on EBay), setup code Cable 1982 will control the DTA.

Get a RCA RCRP05B for < $20, and you'll be able to control nearly anything.  It is programmable in the same way that mdavej mentioned.
