I posted something like this awhile ago. Some had even replied they might
have one if they were unable to fix the main unit.

I know it's a piece of s*** but does anyone by chance have a working original
remote for this thing they'd part with? I repaired the player's power supply
(bad e-cap) but the front panel functions really aren't complete.

Thanks.

Hi!

I posted something like this awhile ago.

Well...not having looked at the original post due primarily to
laziness...what about a cheap universal remote?

DVD players (that so far haven't been broken!) have been hitting the curb
around here in large numbers. I've picked most of them up and used a cheap
Philips remote that I found at Lowe's for $10 to work them. I don't get all
the functions, but I can use menus and all of the basic playback transport
controls.

I know it's a piece of s***

Lots of people talk of laser failures, but it seems that the main processor
chips can fail as well. I've got a couple of Apex Digital AD-1201's that I
upgraded by placing heatsink assemblies on the processor chip. They are used
very heavily and neither one has failed.

I have one, but I still use it. Here are several hits I found
online. Also, the 'Cyberhome' brand name is up for sale, so it looks
like they are out of business.

That's a good point.

If no one has a remote kicking around, why not eBay? I get everything
else on eBay.

Thanks.

There is a bunch of those Cyberhome-CH-DVD-300S DVD players being
sold as-is for 99 cents w/$10 shipping, and I didn't see any with a
bid. They appear to be store returns. Maybe you should try your luck
with one or two of those, and have a spare remote as a bonus?

At least if the remote works, then I have spares for the player.

But, usually, these things attract bidders at the last microsecond....
