The remote can perform some functions but not others - left and up arrows work occasionally. Makes it hard to program or to delete, or even scroll.
Panasonic DVD DMREH55 remote is temperamental. Some buttons work (e.g. "on", to get to the DVD menus, but the left arrow doesn't work, the up arrow doesn't work. makes it difficult to program recording and to delete already recorded shows. It's not the batteries (replaced, and obviously some functions are still working) and I assume the laser or whatever is telling the DVD recorder to turn on and so on is working for some functions. Any ideas?

Replacement remotes are readily available and cheap! The average price is 150 to 300 Rand. I can never understand how people 'lose' remotes, unless it was put into storage and some boxes were tossed out. Perhaps you went shopping when the shops were closed and your couldn't find the remote?
There is an electronic program guide. However, it's limited. To see the current program and upcoming programs for the current channel, press the EPG button on the original Ematic AT103B remote. (Universal remotes may or may not match the function.) To see the other channel's program list, use the left/right arrows to scroll through the lists for all of the available channels.
You may find a web site like Titan TV, http://www.titantv.com/ , more useful. The site has a guide to all channels at once by time for your area OTA channels.
Without the remote, press the Menu button on the side of the TV. Select Picture Mode and then scroll to Screen Format (second item) and select that. Use the left right arrow to try different formats. Press Menu repeatedly to exit the menu system.
Use the ch + and ch - buttons to go up and down. Use the Vol + button to mimic the left arrow and the Vol - button for the right arrow. Press Menu again to select an item or for OK.
If you would like a replacement remote, try here: http://www.rca.newremotecontrol.com/catalog_item.php?catnum=275576 . Otherwise, most universal remotes will work the basic functions if they were programmed 6 months or more after the TV was released. However, you probably will want one that can match the Format (Left arrow) button as well as the input button. This probably will not be available in the most basic universal remotes. (It is guaranteed to be in those remotes that can be programmed through a USB connection to a computer.)
