Passing a house when the resident was putting a broken vcr in the bin.
She gave it to me instead. 20 minute repair job but now stuffed without a
dedicated remote control it would seem.
Goodmans VN9500S, a universal remote just controls the same transport
functions as on the front of the m/c. Stuck in on-screen menu mode to alter
output modulation frequency which stays altered in memory via remote even
after powering down but always starts again in this menu mode. I cannot
close the menu to enable Record even with Scart and active function
switching pin.
Any ideas as can only use as play-only machine , or fork out 17 GBP/35 USD
just to close down the menu function ?

I found a couple of the remotes on Ebay.Co.Uk, but also noiced one of
the auction mentioned the Goodmans remote also worked with Daewoo
vcr's. Maybe you could try the Daewoo codes with your remote?
