the unit has been changed to remote control 2 mode. Look in the owner's manual and change the remote to mode 2 and you should be fine.

Not sure what you mean by 'chapter 2' ...

Review the reference U61 in the user manual or maintenance, its posible that its needs format special or type of dvd-ram,
This failure apparently is very common in this brand Panasonic.

you will think twice when You will go to buy Panasonic.

You can try changing the command mode of the (genuine Panasonic) remote itself, press and hold [ ENTER/OK ] and the number [ 3 ] button together for 5 - 10 seconds, then release. Then try the remote with the unit. If it still shows DVD 3 on its display, no matter which button is pressed, reset the main unit to factory default as outlined in the user manual (assuming this model recorder has a tuner, there would be channel buttons on the front - try pressing and holding [ CH/UP ] and [ CH/DOWN ] together - for 5 - 10 seconds, until 'SETUP' appears, then release). This may or may not restore your DVD unit to the default (DVD 1) command mode. (Don't forget to reset the remote back to DVD 1 if you do reset the main unit - press and hold [ ENTER/OK ] + the number [ 1 ] button together as above).

Your new remote may be set to DVD 1 by default while your unit is DVD 3 = different remote command modes.

If you use your original Panasonic remote to control the DMR-Ez28 to set the remote codes up again as you had them.

any button i press on remote gives
me RC1 on the unit.

Before replacing anything why don't you try to do a hard reset. If you have the manual it tells you how. If you don't have the manual they have it on the panasonic support site.

HOLD or X HOLD? If the latter - which is most likely - then the Child Lock has been activated! Press and hold ENTER and RETURN simultaneously until HOLD disappears!

I have the panasonic DMR EZ 28 for 4 months. I have beendownloading home videos from my camcorder through the IN 2 port without difficulty until yesterday; Now, when I attach my camcorder through the IN 2 port, I can hear the video, BUT not see by video on the TV monitor; I reconnected the camcorder through the IN 1 port in the back of the DMR and it works, but it's a pain to be working in the back of the machine. Why aren't I seeing the video (but hearing it) when connecting to the IN2. Faulty connection??? Did I program something wrong???
