Thanks George,
After I get as far as you instructed I then want to use the cursor under the lid of the Sony remote to operate a non Sony DVD player. After choosing the DVD from function, you open the remote and the LCD screen should give a choice to use the cursor with either the DVD player or the receiver. I Don't get the DVD player as a choice.
Can you use your Sony remote's cursor which is located under the flip lid to control the cursor of your non- Sony DVD, Laser or VCR???
Thanks for the response... JIM
