EVen when holding the remote in my hand, I've noticed
that the Philips DVDR is more picky than the VCR I had.
I have to point it just right to get the DVDR to do anything.

Check the battery in the DVDR remote.


So I'm going to get an emitter that plugs into the
Leapfrog receiver. Maybe that will do it.

I require a supplemental emitter to "hit" the SACD player. The transponder
receiver sits too high.
