Recently got an etec DVD2250 to hook up to my deceased grandfather's TV which we've put in my room so I can watch movies in bed while drugged up after the extraction of my impacted wisdom teeth. Two problems: Pardon my French, but the remote's a real bitch to use. I point it right at the player, and most of the time nothing happens. It mainly works only at point-blank range. Second problem hasn't replicated itself today, but for a while, when I stopped and then later started movies again, (I was watching Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, if that's of any relevance,) I kept getting some "Parental Error" or something. It made no sense. Parental restrictions are set at 8, past NC-17. The main thing that bothers me is the remote. The etec DVD2100 downstairs in the family room doesn't have that kind of remote trouble. I like it better, I think. Any advice? Any verdicts from anyone who's owned one? I'm hoping I can trade in the 2250 for a 2100 through the warranty, but if there are any fixes or advice I'd be grateful.
