Remote works only when I'm standing really really close to the tv

The remote control for my tv only works when it's really close to the tv (like no more than 1-2 feet away). The same thing happens with two different remotes, leading me to believe it's a problem with the tv and not with the remotes. (Both remotes have new batteries.) Any idea what could be causing this? I have a Panasonic Viera plasma tv.
