what infrared to use for tv control

Hi,

i've been looking all over, but i can't find what kind of infrared (sender) led i need to send ir signals.

The thing is, i ordered 940 nm, but this wasn't compatible with television. Only with cameras?

So now i want to know what do i have to look out for for an infrared sender led to control my tv.

thanks in advance!

It is very likely that 940 nm is the correct wavelength, but your modulation frequency may be wrong.
