I would like to assign macro controls to my Genesis MX900 for a new Sony DVD player. Not an expensive one. Simple player for kids downstairs on our unit. The model on the Sony remote is RMT-D187A and the player is Sony DVP-SR500H. Just want to turn it on through Genesis like my other components. Turn thr player off, fast forward, rewind and pause. I saw the tech guys point the remotes towards each other before but iI know something more was going on. Hope you can help me out.

please go to customer.comcast.com and get the support online via chat or phone, and explain the problem
God bless you

Hello
This is normal to all Blu-Ray players.

Portable DVD players are made up of the dvd mechnism, control motherboard and LCD panel. You can buy a defective Sony unit on ebay for parts and replace the dvd mechanism assembly.

Most defective portable dvd players are defective on the control motherboard, just read the defects disclosed on ebay items to decide which one to buy to fix yours.

well follow the steps below to get your job done:

To create an option button in Microsoft Office Excel 2007, make sure that you add Option Button (form control) to the Quick Access Toolbar. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Excel Options.
2. Click the Customize category, select All Commands in the Choose commands from list, select Option Button (form control), and then click OK.

To create an option button and to assign a macro to it, follow these steps:

1. In Excel 2003 and in earlier versions of Excel, click Option Button on the Forms toolbar, and then draw the outline of the button on the sheet.
   
   In Excel 2007, click Option Button (form control) on the Quick Access Toolbar, and then draw the outline of the button on the sheet.

When you click the option button, the macro will run.


good luck ...:-)

this is a mecanical problem, is some gears is broken.
Pease send to repair shop, to check

It may or may not work. There's no way to program it unless it's a universal remote, and even then you'd need to find the codes. I'd put some batteries in and hit power... if it works it works. Universal remotes aren't expensive though. Pick one up if the old Sony won't work.

DVD player will play DVD disk according to assigned region code.
You can see DVD-NS330 region code at rear of player, where model and serial number is written, region code would be written in globe mark.

A bizarre coincidence but our Sony DVD player DAV C700 did exactly the same when the kids were watching a DVD. All other functions on the system are still working but the DVD player wll not eject or play - and the self diagnosis function C 81 remains illuminated on the display.

Hello,

Sony has designed this player so it cannot have the region code changed, it is hard wired into the board as part of their copy protection scheme.

Most users have rated this player as 'junk' (sorry to be the bearer of bad news) and should be replaced.

Maybe you can sell it on Ebay.

My suggestion is that the less expensive the player the better off you will be in the long run as the cheaper brands and models use DVD drives meant for PCs and Macs. More expensive models have proprietary drives, such as Sony, and cannot be manipulated and are not very versatile in recording media and or playing copyright hacked copies of DVDs even if you own the original DVD but has been scratched.

The courts are still trying to figure out these protection measures as they are not fair use in terms of you the owner of a DVD and wanting to make your own backup copy for the kids to use.
