If your model or one close to it isn't already built-in to your universal remote, you'll need to teach the keys from your DVD's remote to your remote. That assumes you bought a learning remote.

What brand remote do you have?

This forum is for remotes made by the Universal Remote company (URC).

Assuming that you have a URC Remote I would try codes 087, 111, 115, 112 and 116 in this respective order. I believe these codes should work for either URC's Consumer or Professional Lines of Remotes. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
Good Luck

In the pro line you don't select by numbers, there's a DVD section with Apex players in it. If it doesn't have his exact model number, and then it's basically the same deal as with the lower end remotes - try them all.

Not in the case apex dvd players, apex scrambles the keypad between models, stop key on one model will be power on the another. In UEI remotes they're upto 11 different codes for apex dvd players.

That's just weird. It's one thing to select a different device code, that'd allow two Apex brand DVD players to co-exist without changing anything. But to re-use the same codes, but in different ways?

I wonder what they were thinking ...

This is Apex we're talking about, they don't think.

Maybe they wanted to increase sales of factory replacement remotes in case of lost or broken remotes, by making it too hard to figure out how to use a universal.
