I recently purchased a new Sony DVD recorder (Model #RDR-VX555). While going through the menu I "accidently" changed from DVD-3 (default) to DVD-1. Now my remote will not communicate with the recorder so I cannot switch back. The procedure described in the manual to restore to factory settings does not work. Anybody have a similar problem or know the solution? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunatey my remote does not have that switch on it (model #RMT-D240A). That would have been real handy. Thanks for the reply.

This procedure was posted by George Fisher in this thread, and may help you. You may also have to try "enter" and button 3.

Guy, for your reference and for anyone else with this
problem.
Sony have been very helpful. Turn on the DVD and your
TV. Press "enter" and button 1 for 5 seconds and it will
take you into Set Up. It did! Hurrah! If pressing "enter"
and 1 does not work, try "enter and 2.
I'm back in business. Thanks for your help.
George

It's good to see people who know how to search, and even better to see that you were helped by one of my posts.
