Hi,
Your player has been set on remote mode 3, you need to change remote control itself on remote-3 so unit can get remote signals.
Set the command mode for the remote so it matches the command mode for the recorder.
Hold down ENTER.
While holding down ENTER, enter the command mode code number using the 3 number button.
Hold down both the number buttons and ENTER at the same time for more than three seconds.
Remote control has been set on mode-3, now player will accept remote commands.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks.

1. Now to make your player region free use the Sony remote that came with the player to bring it out of standby and wait while HOME is displayed
2. Make sure there isn't a disc in the machine.
3. Now on the OneforAll remote press 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (The blue 24p light on the player will start flashing)
4. Put the player back into standby with the Sony remote
5. That’s it, the next time you turn on the player it will be region free for DVD playback


I personally dropped the 00 that are marked red and it worked for me but it depends on model of one for all remote.
