Thanks.
Posted on Dec 29, 2010
OK, It is a Sony RDR-VX525
If you press remote buttons, any message appears in front display of combo?
This combo remote can operate three same model players at same time by selecting remote mode. Check lower part of remote, slide cover and look for DVD Mode slide switch, select DVD-1, DVD-2 or DVD-3 and check remote operation.
Let me know your findings if problem still not solved.
Thanks.
Oops, extremely sorry on wrong info.
Try following method to change remote mode and check,
Hold down ENTER
While holding down ENTER, enter the command mode code number using the number buttons
(depends on what remote mode is activated in dvd combo unit)
DVD1 number button 1
DVD2 number button 2
DVD3 number button 3
Hold down both the number buttons and ENTER at the same time for more than 3 seconds
Remote will start working.
Thanks.
another info about dvd combo..
To check the command mode for the recorder Press (stop) on the recorder when the recorder is turned off. The command mode for the recorder appears in the front panel display
Now you can set appropriate command mode in remote as explained in previous post
Thanks.
Let me know if you have additional question.
Unit/ receiver shows DVD1, right?
You need to press Enter and 1 for three seconds.
Remote will work now.
Let me explain it again.
DVD Recorder shows dvd1 mode when you press remote keys that means dvd recorder has been set on dvd1 remote mode and will accept dvd1 remote mode signals only.
Now you need to change command mode of remote itself so to communicate with dvd remote. Press and hold Enter and 1 numeric keys on remote control for at least 3 seconds or longer, this will change command mode in remote control itself so dvd recorder will accept its signals.
All these info also available in user manual, click Sony Support link to download user manual free copy for more details.
Thats great, have nice time !!!

It is a Sony RDR-VX525
DVD flashes on the console, but the remote does not have a slide on the cover. The DVD 1, 2 and 3 shows on the tv screen when the remote is working.
Have been trying to get DVD 1 off the receiver, but it just won't work. It should be on DVD 3. I have been holding enter while pressing 3, but it will not change.
Did you get my reply that pressing enter and the number did not work? The receiver still says DVD 1. It should read DVD 3. I tried numerous times to get it ot work, but it just will not change over to DVD 3.
I did that, several times. It still won't change.
I finally got it working!!!!! Thanks for all your help
