Right button on Humax remote switches on DVD player
I have a 'View' DVD player... it's a very small and cheap but one from Asda.
I've just bought a Humax T2 PVR and for some reason every time I press the right button on the Humax control the DVD player turns on! I've tried changing the remote control mode to all 6 settings and it still happens. Any ideas.... except covering the DVD with a newspaper? |

Possible workaround - pressing zero on the remote will boot the HDR-T2 and presumably will be ignored by the DVD player. |

Do you mean the power toggle button ? If so odd changing the channel used doesn't fix it.

The problem is with the right direction button not the power button. Pressing that on the Humax remote control turns the DVD player on.... though interestingly it doesn't turn it off once it's on

IR signals compose two parts, a device ID and a command, although they are transmitted as a single stream of bits.
What are called "channels" ie. changing the remote channel, is probably just a change to the device ID part, with the command part unchanged. So the command part of the Humax right-arrow matches the command part of the DVD on/off or possibly a discrete on code. The DVD in standby ignores (or the standby version of the IR handler doesn't differentiate) the device ID correctly. Workarounds: Replace DVD player, Fit remote controlled power socket and plug DVD into that - only switch it on (power DVD) when required - about £10 a set of three sockets and a controller. |
