Hi all, new guy here. I have a small dilemma, hoping to get some direction, or a solution, here.
Just yesterday I got a Sony receiver, STR-DH550, and a Sony Blu-Ray player, BDPS5500.
The receiver remote is RM-AAU190. It is labeled " AV Remote". I had expected it to operate the basic functions of the Blu-Ray player (start, stop), but haven't figured out how to do it.
Here is the scenario:
I put a disc in the blu-ray player. The disc material is displayed on the screen, with the typical menu across the bottom, "Play", "Scene Selection", etc.
I tried to use the receiver remote to select "Play", but nothing happens.
There is a "BD/DVD" button on the remote. I tried pressing it, thinking it would enable dvd functions, but it didn't. Pressing that button changes the input of the receiver.
I have to use the remote that came with the blu-ray player to start the movie playing.
So, I don't know if the remote isn't designed to operate the dvd player, or if perhaps the remote is defective. I've been to the Sony site, and information is seems to be sorely lacking....
Thoughts? Advice?
