Thank for the suggestion. Unfortunately I tried it to no avail.

Also, I am not sure if this is normal or not, but the remote has been displaying "No valid Configuration File Found." on the screen since I got it (brand new remote).

Since the remote is brand new I was thinking of contacting Philips. Does anyone know the best way to do that (phone, web etc.)

Anyway if anyone else has an idea I would appreciate it.
