Hi friend. Try this:
Press the power button on the Toshiba DVD player remote. Press the "Open/Close" button to eject the disc tray. Remove any disc that might be on the tray before proceeding.
Press the following keys on the remote in this order: 2,4,0,3,9,6,0.
Press the "9" key on the remote.
Press the "Open/Close" button to close the disc tray. Press the power button to turn the Toshiba DVD player on.

Hope it works.

The SE-R0094 is the original remote for the SD-KT50. So should work with it unless it's faulty.
You can get the service manual for the SD-KT50, that might give you clues as to why it doesn't work. It's free the manual, just type the model number into Google.

First try resetting the player. Unplug for 1/2 hour-1hr., press and hold power button for 3 seconds, wait 1/2 hour, plug back in and it should work. Otherwise you can pry open the door with a paper clip. Slowly pull door as far back as it will go, then press eject button and see if everything aligns itself back on track.

I found this on another site, worked for me, hope it helps...
