One for all Remote update
Well, It has been 5 business days (a full week tomorrow) since I emailed One for All remote about my problems. No response, except for a stupid automated email message saying not to email them more than once about a problem or to even check up on the status, since they are busy from the holidays (what, Chinese New Year??? Holy crap, it is the end of February). They will get back to me as soon as possible. This doesn't bode well for my ability to get a solution very soon. I may take the remote to my folks place and see if it works for them (lord knows they could use it). I still don't think they have gotten the DVD player hooked up we got them for Christmas. They have an older Mitsubishi TV, like around 20 years old, and it only has VHF/UHF inputs. Well, they have satellite, vcr, and an old laser disc player all trying to be routed into that one connection. Obviously the DVD player couldn't be hooked up without an RF modulator or a switch box, and I was hoping to plug the composit video in through the VCR, but of course, the macro vision protection on the VCR faded the display in and out during playback. So, I told them about a $25 4 input switcher with a built in RF modulator output they could pick up at their BestBuy store, but I don't think they've messed with it much. Dad really likes the HDTV I have, and keeps saying maybe they should get a new TV. I'm very afraid for them if they do. If you are reading this, Mom and Dad, stop it. Who let you on the internet?
