Hello,

My brother has just purhasesd a LX5500 from ebay to replace the same model that finaly gave up the ghost. It came with the rather nice heavy die-cast remote.

However no matter what I do i cannot get the TV to accept an input on scart 1. Scart 2 works fine with the matching VHS recorder and from my investigation it looks as if pressing SHIFT + TV should give access to scart 2 and SHIFT + TEXT allows some form of scart setup.

However SHIFT + ANY BUTTON does absolutlty nothing.

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Thanks htiek

It's possible, that S-VHS input is activated.

Its a toggle function and stored for every output device, Shift-9.

Configure it for V-Tape1 (just press VTAPE) and V-Tape2 (Shift-VTAPE).

Or use SAT instead of VTAPE2. SAT is available if no internal LM-Sat receiver is installed. 

Thank you both for your help, I have managed to configure scart 1 as Sat. and the DVD player

now works with that input.

Further advice would be appreciated, the MUTE does not work, VOL UP/DOWN is ok

any ideas?

Thanks

You could try a different remote control - sometimes the buttons can stop working. Check this only if you don't see the confirmatory sign which should be displayed on the screen when you press the button.

You can test the remote's buttons by using your camera phone or digital camera as shown HERE
