Okay, I'm stumped by this....

I have a DCT6200 and a Panasonic VCR. I ordered the stick-on IR emitter, plugged it in to the IR port on the back of the DCT6200, attached the emitter to the front of the VCR IR eye, and scheduled a record on my EPG. Nothing happened....it didn't roll the VCR.

It then occurred to me....how does the DCT6200 know what make/model of VCR it's controlling? I mean, different makes and models have different command codes, so how do you tell the DCT6200 that your VCR is a Panasonic with such-and-such a code, in the same way that you would program your remote control with a device code for a specific make and model?

Am I missing something here? Has anyone else had a problem getting these IR emitters to work with the DCT6200? Is there something I'm not doing? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
