Finding a replacement remote for your
TV / VCR combo unit that operates all aspects of said unit, sends you into quivers of delight. Woo Woo! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

I've done that before.

And also found a WHOLE Butterfinger king-size in the same place. [img]graemlins/gulp.gif[/img]

I've got two for the TV, two for the DVD player, and two for the VCR.

im a real nerd i got one of those touch screen remotes so i could put all 5 remotes into one.

Yeah... I spend a while setting up the remotes the other nite during one of my insomnia sessions.

I programmed one remote to do all the standard "TV, VCR, Satellite" type stuff (wife remote) and the other does "TV, DVD, Surround Sound, CD" (Baimun remote [img]biggrin.gif[/img] )

After the dog ate our universal remote I almost bought a new one - until I realized my DVD remote had universal features built right in. Now everything runs off the DVD remote.

It works great except whenever I hit the scan button our dog walks backwards. [img]eek.gif[/img] [img]wink.gif[/img]
