View Full Version : VCR Remotes Yodameister 14-10-2004, 10:24 I have inherited a VCR without a remote, and there's functions which I can't use without one (such as fast forward and rewind - fairly crucial?!) If I go and buy a universal remote how do I know if I'm buying one that will be compatable? max 14-10-2004, 10:38 The universal I bought has a list of compatible VCRs with it. There is also a search facility on the remote which allows you to set it for any system not listed. Can't think of the model off hand but I'm guessing all universal remotes offer the same facility. bellis 14-10-2004, 10:49 i think if its a recent ish one youll be ok if your intrested netto:o yes the one are doin a universal remote mitsubishi i think it is for only 2.99 so that might beworth trying out first:) Yodameister 14-10-2004, 10:57 Netto never lets you down! Will nip down Dixons at lunch and have a reccy just in case, but 2.99 sounds good to me!
