Hi everyone.
In the last week my remote control seems to be going a little weird when trying to control my PVR9200T. (I have put a new set of batteries in as I thought the old set might be nearly dead)
If I access a menu item – pressing the down arrow sends it continually down, if I press up the selection item scrolls continually up.
It’s as if the remote is sending continuous commands.
However – if I sit at the PVR and hold the remote at the receiver (I think it’s near the clock?) – the remote seems to work fine.
The new batteries I added are Duracell Ultras with the power bars on the side and they both show full batteries.
I have reset the PVR to intial values in case it was a PVR issue (That was fun – trying to navigate the menus – everytime I tried to select ‘left’ to select YES to reinitialise – it jumped to top menu ..grrr)
Assuming the remote is the problem – is it possible to buy a new remote for the PVR9200T?
Many thanks
Mark
Did you try power-cycling the PVR?
The other thing to consider is if there has been any new electronic equipment introduced into the room or house recently? Anything wireless or with a power brick is a suspect. Try turning everything else fully off and see if the problem persists.

Have you checked that there is nothing else in the room that could be interfering (like a remote for another product that someone has a book left on top of it so is continuously transmitting or a fluroescent lamp)? You can buy replacement remotes.
