I'm a REALLY REALLY "low-tech" person here, so bear with me....

I have a Memorex DVD player with no remote. I've got a couple of universal remotes, and one of them works for this player, but only to turn it off and on. When watching a DVD, I can only get it to PLAY (I can't choose which episode to watch, choose a language option or extras, etc.), because there are no "up, down, left, right" buttons on the player itself to do this, and the "up, down, left, right" buttons on the remote do not make the player do said movements. Is there a universal remote, reasonably priced, that I could get that would do this??
